What's your definition of good?

 

They're both in different price categories but both are good for airflow, especially if you populate more of the fan slots in the Lancool 2 mesh.

Well... they're not exactly competing against one another, given that there's quite a substantial price difference between them. Comparing them head to head wouldn't be too fair.

 

The Focus G is good enough for what it is - mostly a value option. If you can't get your hands on something like a Phanteks P400A, or P300A with one or two extra fans for similar money, then for 40-50 quid it doesn't sound like too bad of a deal.

 

If you've got that extra bit of cash on hand, then at 90 quid the Lancool II Mesh sounds like a solid deal. It's a very good performer out of the box as far as cooling is concerned.

 

Now, if you're open to more suggestions, there are a couple of other cases sitting between these two in terms of price, that would also be quite good:

Yeah I dont want to by expensive fans. So i got told to go for the lancool as it comes with 3 fans appearntly. I Just dont want to buy a case then buy fans that will be the same price as the lancool. Need something a bit cheaper+2 fans that will just be under the price of a lancool.
