Verdict
Corsair Frame 4000D
7.5 / 10 Expert Rating
A smart idea for anyone who isn't sure whether they want mesh or glass yet, though it's a premium over the regular 4000D Airflow for the same base performance.
NZXT H5 Elite
8 / 10 Expert Rating
Good value once you factor in the included RGB fans and controller, but pick the H5 Flow instead if airflow matters more than looks.
