I've been having trouble figuring out which case to buy. The cooler master h500p and meshify c are both on sale for 79.99 at micro center right now. I was curious which I should buy. Airflow is a big deal for me. Thanks.
 
Solution
Even if airflow wouldn't be an issue, i'd still go with Fractal Design since it has a lot better build quality compared to the Cooler Master case.

Here's in-depth video review of H500P for you to look at,

After watching this, maybe you'll understand how bad of a case H500P really is, despite it looking good at first glance.

Okay, thank you. If airflow was not an issue, what case would you choose?

Thank you. I have one more question, sorry. In your opinion, is there any other case that would be better in general than the meshify c?

Do note that choosing a PC case is personal choice and preferences vary. But since you asked: best would be Corsair 760T V2,

For more futuristic look, Corsair 780T is good choice,

But for more classical look, Corsair 750D and especially it's Airflow Edition is also a great choice,

If 750D is a bit big for your taste, Corsair also has 450D to offer which keeps the classical looks and most of the features as well,

Since i prefer full-tower ATX cases which offer more/better features than their mid-tower ATX counterparts, my Skylake build sits in a 760T V2 Black case while my Haswell build sits in a 750D AF edition case, full specs with pics in my sig.
