The Phanteks P300A case is a budget-tier gaming case that has an MSRP of about $60, making it one of the cheaper "airflow" cases on the market. Its biggest downside is a lack of included fans, but we tested with additional fans and our standardized fan suite to determine the efficacy of the mesh panel on the new case. This is a follow-up to the slightly larger and more expensive P400A, which we awarded Best Airflow and Best Overall for 2019. The P300A vs. NR600, Fractal Meshify C, and other case comparisons are also made in this review.
