Spec me an upgrade

The Fractal XL doesn't suffer from any air flow issues.

The XL performs worse than the normal R3, despite being larger.

Therefore there must be some form of airflow issues for worse performance in a case with more space for air to move.

So, I have put the build on hold until later this week, I want to pick a good case that will last a few years and do a good job. I like the way the FD R3 looks but there seems to be little point in getting the XL if the airflow is worse than the smaller version. I don't want to pay a little extra for something that will take up more room and give rise to more whining from my significant other if the cooling is actaully worse....
