Hey guys! I want to build my own pc but I’m having some trouble picking the case for it. My Mobo is an Asrock B450M Micro-Atx motherboard. It had 3 System fan headers

The problem is I can’t find a case that only has 3 system fans, looks decent, has good reviews, and is around $60. ( Check the link to see if I could possibly do RGB or not on the fans) 

 

If a few people could help me look for a case, that would be amazing!

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

Is there a reason the case has to have no more than 3 fans becuase thats a big limiting factor in your case preference 

I mean it doesn’t really need to have 3. I’m not even planning on putting a gpu in it anytime soon (maybe a gtx 1050 in the future) but that’s about it. All I’m running is a Ryzen 5 3400G.
