I'm looking to buy a mid tower case that comes with decent airflow fans. What's a good case under $100 that comes with multiple decent fans?

Not gonna do anything real special like sli I just want good airflow without having to drop a extra $30 for case fans
 
Mainly looking for decent airflow, hopefully 3 120mm fans and a little room so I can stick a big video card in there and have some room left
 
It is possible to spend more than you need for "decent" airflow. As Para asks, give more info what you think is important.
 
Any of the HAF series. HAF = High Air Flow...

Mid tower you can get a 922. 3x200MM 2x 120MM (or 1x120 & 1x140MM)

It's what I had before I moved up to the HAF X. It's pretty much as good as it gets for air cooling.
 
Usb 3.0 would be nice but its not a deal breaker if it doesn't have it
 
Most modern cases boast good cooling, So are there any styles you like? How many disk drives or hard drives do you need.
 
If you want to go cheaper, the Aerocool Blackhawk is a fully-featured case for a good price. I always enjoy building with it.
 
I still love my Antec 900. Good price, amazing cooling, looks great and the real test is would you buy it all over again? YUP! I made a video on it too about wire management if you really want to clean it up for air flow purposes. Works great and easy too.

I'm only using one hard drive. I'm gonna use a hd6850 card, I just want some room and it not be all cramped up inside
 
I'm not a led fan at all. Can you disable the light on those antec fans? I want a clean and simple look, the cable management was good in that 900
+1 for you, major props for a job well done
 
Lian Li X900 has best airflow of any case I've ever owned. Three 120mm fans up front with filters and two exhaust fans out back.
