I am looking for a quiet mid tower case. Bling free as possible. 2001 Monolith is my idea of case style. I will NEVER liquid cool.
Something like Fractal R5 or R6 are near ideal if a bit larger than I want, but they also are over budget. I'd Love a door on that quiet case, so I can just open it to improve airflow to Mesh levels. I really consider the door option the best of both worlds.
While less convenient I figure I can achieve similar idea with the Define C and/or Corsair 275Q. Both Quiet understated cases. That I can take the front panel off if I really need more airflow, while maintaining the filter for dust protection.
These are each about $110 on Amazon.ca and have free shipping. That's near the limit on budget.
I note that the Corsair has more length, so can likely fit a bit longer GPU and PSU (while keeping the HDD cage).
They seem fairly even with slight edge in favor of the Corsair 275Q. Anything that tilts it back toward the Fractal Define C, or suggestions for another similar option I have overlooked?
