Verdict

FormD T1

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A cult favorite for a reason, just go in knowing you're buying a shell, not a complete kit.

SilverStone Fara B1

6.5 / 10 Expert Rating

A perfectly serviceable budget case if you add your own fans, but not competitive against similarly priced cases that already include ARGB fans.
