I would like some suggestions for a pc case. I don't really care about aesthetics, since it's probably going to be tucked somewhere where it can't be seen. That means that RGB is also irrelevant. Main priorities are:

noise - I would like it to absorb at least some noise, back in the day I used to own be quiet case that had noise isolation, it's not a must but would prefer case like that.

airflow - well for obvious reasons good airflow is also required.

space - I won't build the biggest/baddest gaming pc, but I want to fit a decently sized GPU (4080 ~) and AIO.

Price - It's a matter of principle that I am not willing to spend 300+ on a case I rather then build the pc in a shoebox 😅 Jokes aside, I would prefer it to be in the range of 70€-150€ (Europe) 

Just to clarify, the features mentioned above are not a must have, but if you will suggest a case that has none of them I will probably not buy it, but if it's a good solid case that has good airflow but it's not very quiet then it's fine I will take a look.... And vice versa.

Thanks, but quick google search showed that it's mostly going for looks. It doesn't seem to have anything going for it except looks and the price. It has a lot of fan's but it's not relevant, since I can just add fans at any time to any case, I better focus on the better base package.

Well I might not have been clear enough, but price is only a concern if it's above 150£ I am searching for something that is a little better than the most budget case that you can buy. It has nothing that I am searching for
