Anyone can help me. Which one is better? Both got side windows and the cooling seems good. Both got ok-ok mountable fan option.

QUOTE(djlah @ Aug 25 2013, 11:53 AM) previously was waiting for Prodigy M, now already available for preorder. but 1 thing dislike is HDD cage mount design, block the view of mb if additional hdd added. What I wish to see previously is side window panel on this size of casing in mATX form. you could still install slim-type HDDs/SSDs on the side like the original Prodigy but yeah, I can see what you mean by the cage blocking the view if you wanna place a window there. They have to sacrifice something to make it fit tall air coolersany other similar or alternate of Prodidy M casing recommended? about same cost range of budget. |

The NZXT is a better choice CM N300 - RM 150 NZXT Source 210 - RM 180  looks to have better cable management than the CM N300 |

NZXT phantom airflow good? the Phantom line sure does, actually most chassis at the pricepoint of around RM300 have good airflow (there are a few exceptions), what comes down to your decision may be the features that they offer like fan controller, Mdd cage module, lighting, inclusion of fans, rad suppport etc etc etc.. |

If comparing to other mid tower case in the same range then I can't give you the answer .. But all in all, I'm very happy with the case and it is an extremely good looking case to me  |
