Who each one is for
The Corsair 3000D Airflow is the one to take for budget mesh airflow builds and smaller desks, though it is not the pick for E-ATX motherboards and large triple-slot flagship GPUs over 350mm. The Montech King 95 suits budget dual-chamber showcase builds and E-ATX motherboards on a budget, though it is the wrong buy for maximum fan count out of the box and Airflow-first builds. Our rating of the Corsair 3000D Airflow (7.5/10): A smart downgrade path from the 4000D Airflow when budget or desk space is tight, without losing the mesh-front airflow design. Our rating of the Montech King 95 (7.5/10): most of the King 95 Pro's dual-chamber appeal for less, if you don't need curved glass or the extra two fans.
