i have no experience with cases , so plz suggest some . looking to spend less than 50$ . case should have good amount of fans .
 
You didn't specify the case size so I assumed that you are looking for a mid tower ATX.

I tried finding cases that are inexpensive but are of decent quality and above average airflow. Here is what I found:

AMS gMONO CF-2029 Mid-Tower ATX
HEC ATX Mid Tower 6AR6, but this HEC case looks much nicer (it's also more expensive...)
CoolerMaster Elite 330
Thermaltake WingRS 100

...well, that should put you in the right direction. I tried to find cases that including shipping would be around the $50 price, some of these cases may require additional fans, but at least they have room for them so you don't need to work too hard.
 
The Coolermaster Centurion 5 would be a good choice, as well as the CM RC-690 if you can find a deal on it (they seem to come up pretty often).

New egg had it for 69.99 last night. I picked one up. I just realized its 89.99 now, and that is out of your range. Its worth a look though.

the coolermaster 690 is a good budget case at around 69 bucks, 50 bucks is a bit short of GOOD and COOLING, NO CASES come with good fans, you should always replace case fans with high quality ones such as panaflos, scythe sflex for example, fans that come in cases are cheapo ones that generally have lights ( focus on bling or silence instead of good cooling). the coolermaster 690 offers several options top front back and sides for placement of cooling fans.
 
look around craigslist. i cant even sell off my 690 for $45. the only offer i got was $30 :(
 
You can get a metal case and put in good fans.Well get a bigger one than you need.
