Verdict
Fractal Design Terra
8 / 10 Expert Rating
The best-looking SFF case on a desk, with real thermal tradeoffs to match its layout.
NZXT H1 V2
7.5 / 10 Expert Rating
A great pick if the specific bundled AIO and PSU fit your build plan, but its closed design makes it a poor choice if you want to choose your own cooler.
