Verdict
Corsair 2500X
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A strong pick if you want O11-style dual-chamber looks on a smaller desk without giving up full ATX support.
Fractal Design Pop Air
7.5 / 10 Expert Rating
A dependable budget airflow case, just don't expect the design flourishes of Fractal's pricier lines.
