Building 1050 ti ryzen 3 build mATX mobo but I’ve heard ATX will be easier to build in. My psu is not modular so the space would be good for unused wires. I would ideally like at least 1 in and 1 out fan as well as dust filters. Please send suggestions, thanks!

It's absolutely true that an ATX case gives you considerably more breathing room, especially cable routing alternatives on the LH side, between the cover and the motherboard frame/floor. OTOH, it's a pretty big jump up in physical size (external dimensions) if you're trying to stash it under a desk or something. I've built plenty of mATX, and it just requires a little more care and planning to make it look nice inside. And an mATX case will usually save you a little money over the larger ATX.
