Corsair SPEC-06 vs. Meshify C

UnReal_Orbit

I am completely torn between these two cases. I love the looks of both of them and they both seems to offer basically the same thing, unless there is something I am missing. Those of you that have used both or one of the cases, please post your reviews/opinions on them below. This is the only thing holding me back from starting my build. Thanks!

believe me, if you have a crap ton of rgb you definetely want the meshify c, I honestly would pick the meshify c over the spec 06, even cable management is good

Spec-06 doesnt have Meshify C's mesh front panel, so I'd say they are quite different :P. It's more fair to compare the Spec-06 with the Define C.

I plan on having a good amount of RBG. Why do you suggest the Meshify C if I was going to have RBG?

But the Define C does not have a tempered glass side panel.

if you have RGB fans the lights shine through the mesh giving a beautiful effect, also the led strips can be hidden away really conveniently making case lighting look subtle as well as bright.

I would personally pick the Meshify C or Define C TG over the SPEC-06. The SPEc-06 has RGB sure, but the Meshify/Define C both have better cable managment and the bottom PSU filter is removable from the front.
