Hi, I'm currently in the process of building a white and black themed build (mostly white) so I'm looking for a white case. Are there any good white cases for a reasonable price? I've been looking at the P400S, is that a good case? The case needs to have cable management in mind as I don't want cables everywhere :).

does the case need to be white on the outside? if so, never mind ^^

 

if not:

 

i wanted to do the same thing; you can check my buildlog in my signature.

 

i just got a case i really liked (on the used market - which i'd always recommend b/c its just so much cheaper) and spraypainted it on the inside.

it's a really easy "mod", you'd have a unique case, and you wouldnt me limited to just white cases

Well, it would be good probably but i still recommend P400 Digital if you can find it for comparable price.

The P400S and P400A (with rgb fans in front) are the exact same price here. So it comes down to which one provides the best mix of performance and aesthetics? How is the build quality and cable management in them?

P400A\Digital has better airflow because the front panel are perforated, otherwise they're almost the same. Build quality are very good, no way you can bend or break anything or smth like that, cable management could be better but it's decent, there are velcro loops to help it also. Overall it's very good case for the price.

I've heard reviews on that the white P400A has barely any airflow difference compared to the P400S because of the thicker paint on it. What would the temp differences look like? I'm not really a fan of mesh/perforated cases since I personally dont find them aesthetically pleasing, but performance is more important.

GN did a review on it, they didn't see any difference between black and white versions, might be that early review samples had different painting process but there seems to be no difference on production ones. You can always go for FD Meshify C if you're worried, it's the next best one.
