Can't really go wrong with either to be honest, both look to be very solid choices and ones I've considered for builds, so I've watched a good few videos on both.

I think the Jonsbo might feel slightly more premium all round compared to the A3. The A3 has had a few corners cut to make the price point, such as the very cheap looking plastic front panel, but it will still prove to be popular in the market at that. In fairness, the front panel doesn't look too bad when the case is static but when I saw someone take it off on video, it just looked less premium than you would expect for the Lian Li / DAN collaboration.
 
The D31 should be a very good option. Had the D41 mesh for a while, very solid case, GPU won’t sag because the back of the case was solid, unlike a lot of £150 cases that use very thin metal sheets. The only reason I ended up changing cases was because my PSU and GPU are too big, and the OCD won’t allow for much cabling visible.
 
A3 looks great for the money however be aware you'll need to wait a fair while. I've had a pre-order in since the 22nd May and last I asked the delivery date looks to be the 27th of July. That is assuming of course they haven't already sold their allocation of stock.
 
I think i will take the plunge with the D31. I wont be going with kolink. i have tried them before, they are poor quality, and are lately overpriced for an essentially unbranded case.
I dont have to worry about GPU sag as im only putting a small single slot quadro in
 
How about the Montech Air 100 it comes in black or white and RGB and Lite editions. Prices start at £40
