The Montech King 95 3D PRO offers premium panoramic-glass, seven preinstalled RGB fans with reverse variants, and strong cooling for under $200. It nails the enthusiast formula with rear-connector motherboard support, roomy clearances, and a striking build at a highly competitive price tag.
The new NZXT H7 RGB+ offers two massive pre-installed 420 mm RGB fan frames and great hardware support, all in a clean, well-made case with a beautiful single-piece curved glass panel. It even comes with mesh and glass roof options, and there's some seriously capable hardware in the box.
NZXT's H5 is back, this time with a wraparound glass panel, dual 360 mm radiator support and a funky side air scoop to cool your GPU. The base model costs just $90, yet offers great build quality and a rewarding build process. But how does it fare against similarly-priced cases that offer multiple fans as standard?
Cougar's DUOAIR RGB packs five fans, a fan hub, alongside both glass and mesh front panel variants into an $80 ATX case that cools GPUs better than anything we've tested so far. It stays quiet, looks sharp, and only gets held back by a too-short GPU support arm, and tight cable space.
The HAVN HS 360 VGPU is a more refined and compact HS 420 VGPU, cutting noise and vibration while boosting vertical GPU cooling with smart airflow features. It includes a PCIe Gen 5 riser cable, rear-connector motherboard support, and a clearer panoramic glass panel for a sleek home to a high-end PC.
The Cooler Master HAF II 500 brings back the HAF name with three quiet enormous fans, and a bold look, alongside modern features that meet the demands of today's builds. It also offers roomy support for big GPUs and CPU coolers, plus smart cable routing and fan mounting, all for around $200.
NZXT has yet another version of its popular H6 dual-chamber case to show off. The NZXT H6 RGB+ with its sweeping wrap-around glass panel is one of the most complete cases we've reviewed straight out of the box. Seven RGB fans, including two sleek 360 mm fan arrays, are pre-wired for speed and lighting control.
Formula V Line's showstopper case, the Air Power G10, has landed and it's certainly a looker even before considering its unique features and unusual layout. Equipped with five RGB fans, one dedicated to the GPU, it aims to wow in terms of cooling, but does the sub $100 price tag mean it's cut too many corners?
SilverStone adds another case to its well-known retro-styled lineup with the FLP03 microATX tower. You also get a powerful 180 mm Air Penetrator fan, plus a slightly tweaked design language that improves on some of its predecessor's shortcomings, but does it have appeal beyond nostalgia?
Corsair's Warthog turns Halo nostalgia into a serious full-tower, with bold styling, tool-free panels, and a clever pegboard cable system that makes clean builds easy. The RS model adds strong cooling, while huge radiator support and GPU clearance make it fit for enthusiast builds.
MSI has steadily improved its PC case lineup, and the MSI MEG Maestro 900R pushes boundaries even further. It goes all out on features and cooling support, and it looks every bit the flagship case enthusiasts will want, with a few extras they'll appreciate.
Fractal Design's new Summit Ambience Blackout TG case is elegant, flexible, and even supports rear connector motherboards. It has the experience and quality you'd expect from the company, plus excellent cooling and low noise, though it loses points in one area where Fractal Design usually scores top marks.
Montech TEN is a $70 microATX case that punches above its size, supporting huge GPUs, 360 mm radiators, and vertical layouts. The build can be tricky, but tool-free panels, good construction, and clever extras make it an easy case to like.
The Gamdias Atlas P6 CG impresses with its panoramic curved glass design and vibrant RGB lighting. Equipped with four RGB fans and a dual-chamber layout, it ensures excellent cooling and cable management. Despite a few quirks, its stylish aesthetics and practical features make it a great pick for enthusiasts.
The Lian Li B4-mATX case impresses with its clever convertible design, allowing easy transitions between horizontal and vertical layouts. Priced at just $70, this compact powerhouse supports extensive cooling options, including 360 mm radiators, while maintaining a sleek aesthetic.
The Fractal Design Pop 2 Vision RGB doesn't have anything in common with any of the Pop series cases that came before it, except for a price tag to target the masses. In fact, it manages to impress with its own unique tooling and excellent build quality. It has plenty of thoughtful design details alongside some well rounded functionality overall.
darkFlash managed to find its own with the edgy, angular DY470. With this new DY460, a switch to a modern mid-tower frame instead of a beefier dual-chamber layout allows a more compact variant. It looks just as unique, offering good BTF support, well integrated ARGB, and bent glass.
The Gamdias Atlas M4 borrows some of the interior elements of the smaller Athena M4M, but otherwise forges its own path in terms of design and build quality. With a two-tone design alongside a solid and functional feature-set, the Atlas M4 adds a few smaller details to differentiate itself from the competititon, without going overboard.
The Corsair 3200D RS ARGB is one very cool looking chassis. Especially the Smoke variant will turn some heads. But the sweet design is likely not going to be enough to distract from how bare the chassis is in terms of functionality in the heavily contested sub-$100 market segment.
Noctua continues to expand its collaboration product range with the Antec Flux Pro. Just like its other partnerships, the case doesn't simply ship with a set of Noctua fans, but ones that are tuned for this specific chassis and layout. Paired with a unique color scheme, the Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition makes for a very good collaboration result between the two brands, though it is quite expensive.
The Cooler Master MasterFrame 360 Panorama employs the practical frame system to create a unique case with a dedicated stage in the front, while still offering massive cooling capabilities. To add to the overall experience it also sports glass all around while still looking clean thanks to internal covers.
The Sky 3 is Montech's latest dual-glass chassis that manages to look a bit different than its predecessor, while still including all the usual bells and whistles of a mid-tower case at great pricing. Montech has even managed to embed a cool two part ARGB LED strip and some nifty branding elements.
The Cooler Master Cosmos is back, called the Cosmos Alpha in this iteration of the chassis. It stays true to the DNA of the longest running flagship series in the industry. The Cosmos Alpha blends the latest extremes in terms of size, framing materials and engineering, while looking just as beautiful as ever.
The Formula V Line Crystal U9 not only relies on its clean, beautiful looks using a front glass panel with dual bends, but also the combination of useful fans and a very attractive price point. These make it a very interesting choice for those wanting to build a beautiful and functional system without breaking the bank.
NZXT is taking another stab at the SFF case, nearly six years after the original H1. The H2 Flow sports the same form factor but has been redesigned from the ground up. This successor manages to be a solid option for those looking to build a compact system, even if NZXT is trying to market a few parts of it as better than they actually are.
