you would be fine. For all the cases I suggested, a third fan is recommended, a cheap 120mm fan of your liking is ideal. When I make a PC with the H510, I like to move the fans such that there are two intake fans and one exhaust fan.

I was just wondering what is a good  Mid tower case for £70-£100

Maybe but there’s no ratings for it on pcpartpicker other than 1 I’m kind of leaning to Corsair Mid tower  airflow edition Case or phanteks pro m tg mid tower case

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

I’ve been told the nzxt cases don’t have the best airflow

The NZXT H510 has OK airflow, not impressive but it does not choke your parts. The ease of building and the stylish look more than make up for it, if you value those things.

 

Other NZXT cases will vary, some have poor airflow and some have good airflow.

So Corsair rgb fans would work with the case?

as long as they are the appropriate size, yes. Standard 120mm fans work in every spot on this case.

Yes the Phanteks Enthoo Pro M TG is a good case, and it will fit the Dark Rock Pro 4 CPU cooler.

Without the drive bays, the case can hold GPU's up to 420mm long. With optional drive bays that block areas of the GPU, you're limited to 300mm

You can still put SOME bays in there, just not anywhere that would bock the extra long GPU.

So how many driver bays come  preinstalled In the case? And how many bays could  I fit without blocking the gpu width

Couple of days ago i watched a gamers nexus review of BeQuiet Pure Base 500DX and decided to get this case in white color.

Such cases usually sell very fast.. it should be exactly within your budget and comes with enough fans for efficient cooling. Take a look at it.

How many harddrive bays can be or come preinstalled/included with the case?

The info on their site states only 2. Cant say for sure - i will only be getting mine next week.

Understand this might be crucial for some people, i personally do not have any hard drives. That's the thing with a lot of "budget" cases these days.

It doesn’t have any ratings on pcpartpicker or amazon that’s what I’m worried about
