Verdict
Corsair 6500X
8.5 / 10 Expert Rating
Corsair's flagship showcase case right now, with the dual-chamber cable hiding and radiator room to match its size.
Lian Li A3 mATX
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A genuinely well thought-out compact case, best suited to a mATX build that still wants room for a full-size GPU and cooler.
