Essentially any full-tower ATX PC case will do (super-tower ATX as well, if you want to go big). But since choosing a PC case is personal choice, take your pick;
pcpp: https://pcpartpicker.com/products/case/#t=4&sort=price&page=1

Once you've found what you like, might want to check clearances from official specs (e.g GPU clearance), just in case.

E.g i'm personally using full-tower ATX Corsair Graphite 760T V2 Black,
specs: https://www.corsair.com/eu/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Graphite-Series™-760T-Full-Tower-Windowed-Case/p/CC-9011073-WW

And all your components fit into it just fine + ample space is left over.
Same goes for full-tower ATX Corsair Obsidian 750D AirFlow Edition, where my missus'es PC lives in,
specs: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/p/pc-...low-edition-full-tower-atx-case-cc-9011078-ww

If you want to see how hardware sits in them, check out my Skylake and Haswell builds from my signature (plenty of pics).
E.g both PC cases have 45cm for GPU, 17cm for CPU cooler, support 120/140mm fans all around + other neat aspects.

This is all going to depend on what you like appearance wise and how much money you are willing to spend.

There are lots of those massive cases with the front and side all glass. You can also get many other more simple cases for well under $100.

I suspect we will soon start seeing the "best of 2023" articles and videos. Many times they have lists of cases.

In the end it is going to be what do you like the best. Only you can say if a case that is painted bright red might be the one for you. Just make sure there is lots of mesh panels so air can get in and out of the case
