Verdict
Corsair 3000D Airflow
7.5 / 10 Expert Rating
A smart downgrade path from the 4000D Airflow when budget or desk space is tight, without losing the mesh-front airflow design.
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.
