ATX (mid-tower is fine) case suggestion, high airflow, zero RGB

Or at least RGB that can be turned off as this would be used in a professional environment.

Ideally something that already comes with some fans built in (at least the front of the case) 

 

Motherboard will be the MSI MAG B550M Mortar Wifi mATX board and a single slot Quadro

 

Suggestions are highly appreciated, as I am well out of the loop on what good cases are out there.

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.

Cougar MX lineup (I have their 330's) and the Fractal Design Focus G - have both the mini and ATX variant - really a fan of fractal now.   Right now budget and airflow wise these are my favorite cases

There's a lot of good high airflow cases that come with fans pre installed. Most are RGB (and can be turned off) but be quiet!'s Pure base 500Dx (Retails around $100) stands out as having 3 140mm fans  (I believe they're Pure Wings 2) which are decent case fans right off the bat. The Front RGB strip and interior RGB can be simply not plugged in to keep it Black and minimalistic. 

 

Bonus? It comes with a Type C front I/O port (which your motherboard has)

This was my recommendation. 

 

But if I was going to choose something else, YEAH, the BeQuiet PureBase 500Dx. Mainly because the Lancool II Mesh Performance did NOT come with USB-C. I ordered it separately and installed it. Would have been nice if it was done already!!!

Seriously, $15!! GEEZ.
