these cases are very similar (In terms of features) so just take that one that looks better.

My Pc: Cpu: I7 4790k @ 4,8 Ghz @1,25 volts, Motherboard: Maximus VII Formula, Graphicscard: 2x Titan X @1,4 at stock voltage (soon to be replaced), Ram: 32 gb Corsair Dominator Platinum 2133 Cl 9, SSD: 2x 850 Pro 1 Tb in Raid 0, 2x Samsung 840 Evo 1 tb raid 1,, PSU: Corsair HXi Series 1000W 80+ Platinum, Case: H440. Soon to be watercooled again, maybe, probably, the Titans are too loud.

Prodigy blocks 2nd GPU slot if you want a DVD drive or a top mounted rad.

I actually vote 350D. It's pretty large for an mATX case, but you feel like you're building a system in a much larger case because of all the space it offers for an mATX build. :P

If you are building something extreme, I'd suggest the 350D as it offers an enormous amount of space for a Matx chasis (besides the Parvum S1). It's the same height as an mid-tower, just slightly shorter.


On the other hand,if you want to be the cool kid on the block (me) get the Prodigy M. Not the best cable layout, and the inverted motherboard is kind of weird. However, I am very happy with my purchase :D

Im going with the Prodigy because of the smaller and more portability of the case. Thanks guys!

If you need any help or ideas, feel free to ask fellow Prodigy-M owner :P

The 350D is butt ugly if you actually install anything in the ODD bays.

Even touching the aluminum will make it ugly.
