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.
Silverstone FARA R1
6.5 / 10 Expert Rating
A fine budget option if the price is the deciding factor, just don't expect premium build quality at this tier.
