I won a bid on ebay for a Dell Optiplex 3010 (non-sff). I want to put the contents in a new case with my pre-existing power supply and my 1060. I want to know if first off, I can even fit this motherboard into a standard ATX case. I am aware brands such as HP have their own motherboard setups, but I remember reading somewhere that Dell and Lenovo are way more forgiving and use standard ATX.

I'm looking for a cheap case with some Red RGB on the fans or whatnot with a clear side panel and a hidden Power supply bay. My budget is probably below 80$ but I'd probably stretch it if I had to.

I know for a fact the power supply isn't since I have seen others replace the power supplies. The motherboard may or may not be atx, I guess I will find out. In the mean time, have any opinion on a sleek Case like how I mentioned above

Is it the DESKTOP OR MICRO TOWER 3010?

it is the "MT" but not the SFF (slim) so it is in an ATX Case type, not sff (ITX)
