Hi, I just bought the Corsair 270R and it ended up being a bit bigger then I expected and It just looks too plain. The main reason I got it was because of good temperatures/airflow. I'll also have to spend $30 on a top dust filter for the massive hole which is way too much for a dust filter. I have 7 days to return it and I'm considering the Phanteks Eclipse P350X which is somewhat smaller and way better looking. Does anyone know if temperatures are particularly good with that case and if anyone here has it, do you like the case in general? Thanks.

Don't know about that case in particular, but I can speak to the quality of my Phanteks Enthoo Luxe was perfectly, boxed, had an excellent manual and accessories kit (including a snap tray for the screws) and their support was excellent when I needed a replacement LED strip.  Phanteks will definitely be my first consideration for case manufacturer on future builds.

Airflow in that case is all but ideal, you should have no issues with that case with regards to that.

I have the P400 from Phanteks. I personally don't have issues with airflow but others do. But the P350x addressed the intake issues of the P400. Plus the Phanteks customer support has been amazing for myself and my wife.
