Full tower and good airflow usually don't go together much because the extra distance needed for air to travel to be removed from the case needs more fans for similar cooling.

Why a full tower? Where are you shopping/located? Budget?

 

Switch 810 is all metal and has amazing airflow. 

It's not all metal with 'plastic' often in the item title. The airflow is far from amazing and is a bit below average at best. 

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/

Well it has great expand ability for fans, and it is extremely cheap. (Compared to the corsair offerings)

The many fan mounts and case in general are intended for watercooling. Pretty much any other full tower with any front open mesh has better airflow.
