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.

Phanteks P400A

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A dated but still capable budget mesh case; worth buying only if it's discounted below current-generation alternatives like the XT Pro.
