I've got a mate with the S340 Elite and i have a Phanteks P400S TG and we compared the two cases, Phanteks seems to offer better build quality & looks (subjective of course) the Phanteks also has built in ARRGEEBEE and the sound deadening makes a big difference in the P400S, but when it comes down to it the cases are very similar and you cannot go wrong with either, but if you want the absolute best (that i know of) budget case, it appears that the P400S TG is the way to go

Thats the base P400, the extras offered by the P400S TG are worth the small premium: http://www.phanteks.com/Eclipse-P400S-TemperedGlass.html

Doesnt have great airflow. The Core X31 is better because it has a mesh front, however, overall thermaltake cases tend to be lower quality than others mentioned.
