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.
