I list the advantages and disadvantages for the both cases.
Xigmatek Recon, Mid Tower case, bottomed mounted PSU, those features are better for the airflow and better cooling the whole PC, but it has only 155mm clearance for the cpu cooler , that means you can't use the 120mm size one.
Cougar Spike, Micro-ATX case, top mounted PSU, those are not that good for the airflow, and you can use up to 120mm cpu cooler.
So if you have to take one from them, and I recommend to get the Xigmatek Recon if you don't use the 120mm cpu cooler. or can you let us know where you buy the case? Like amazon? we maybe can find other one for you.
