Phanteks P360A or Corsair 220T?

MTrencovski

I will be building a mid range system and I do not know which case to pick. They both look like good options but the corsair one is slightly cheaper. Which one should I go for?

I have in both the 220T Airflow and the P300A (smaller version of the P360A) 

 

I was happier with the build quality in the P300a, but the 220T coming with three pre installed fans was a nice bonus.  Both cases (P300A and 220T) are both very short meaning you can only put in a 300m long GPU in, BEFORE any AIO you want to put in the front (keep that in mind if you want to front mount a Radiator). 

P300A
