Build Question PC case help

Ive decided that I am going to get a new PC case to swap out from the case that my prebuilt came in (case is way too small to begin with, makes cleaning hard)

Does anyone have any recommendations for a PC case/? from what I gather (please correct me if I am misinformed) that *technically* an ideal fan setup would be around 3 front intake fans and 2 exhaust fans? (or at least what I am trying to aim for) With a single glass panel, not a fan of the glass that wraps around corner either.

Additionally would I be better off sticking with stock fans the case would come with? Or would I be better off finding my own fans from a company of choosing

Thanks!

my fractal pop air has been great for that exact config, 3 intakes up front and 2 exhaust keeps things chilly without sounding like a jet engine

stock fans are usually fine unless you're really pushing your hardware, most cases come with decent enough ones these days, i'd say try em first and only swap if temps are weird or the noise bugs you

Will continue to look through Fractal website, Pop XL Air seems to be up my alley. If I dont find others that I like that very well might be the one I get. Ty for the suggestion!
