Hello, I've been looking for a new case for awhile now and tempered glass looks like a pretty appealing market to get on. I've been looking at various tempered glass models and I was just wondering if anyone has suggestions for a relatively budget temp glass case. I saw the Phanteks recently released the P400 with tempered glass for $79.99 which is pretty appealing, since it has good space, PSU shroud, cable management, included LED lighting. But on the other hand, there's also the S340 Elite which is also nice. The only reason I haven't bought the P400 yet is because there hasn't been many reviews of it. 

 

Any suggestions are appreciated though, thanks.

I personally really like the s340 elite. While i havent had a chance to actually build in it, off of reviews and images alone it looks spectacular.

I have the P400S plexi window and the P400 tempered glass. Building in them is a breeze with great room for cable management. Plus it does look fantastic with the tempered glass. 

 

The only con I can find with the case is with the Anthricite Grey color. It is an absolute fingerprint magnet. Outside of that I absolutely adore my Phanteks cases. 

 

The s340 is also an amazing case with lots of great support and reviews. So either one I. My opinion you can't go wrong with.

Either one is a good choice. I personally like the 90 degree edges of the s340 and the 2.5" mount options, but the P400 has top radiator support with dust filter and RGB lighting built in thats compatable with asus aura.
