I looked into this one and I was going to buy it. However I heard that the airflow is bad, If I stick with the 4 stock fans and OC to 4.5 ghtz will my case be too hot.

Well there are two cases there, I recommend the Enthoo Pro over the H440, but it is just black.

I have an H440 and have not run into this issue. I think it's one of those things where people are being picky just to be picky. The Enthoo Pro is a solid choice, though you cannot go wrong with it.

Also I would change your CPU cooler to an H5 instead of a C7. It will be better for airflow.

They updated it last year, so it has a little better airflow, but in practice it is more or less the same.

A good case recommendation is the NZXT Noctis 450, that thing has great airflow with a meshed surface design and a sleek look. It DOES go for 110 in white and 140 in black however.
The S340, the H440s smaller variant is a good option, as it has similar airflow for a much smaller case.
All in all however the Fractal Design Define R5 is the best case you can get in this range for airflow imo. It goes for just under the 90 mark from memory!

That's the thing that really bugs me about store / user reviews is that too often people simply do not know what they are talking about, and as such so much misinformation gets out there about products. Like the airflow in the H440. All the cases you mentioned are good though.
