What PC Mid-Tower case should i buy? Max 100$. I was thinking about the NZXT s340 elite or NZXT 500i, are these any good?

Well, i currently have a really small case which i want to upgrade because i want to upgrade my cooling also (Fucking KabyLake), which won't fit in my current case. My CPU: i7 7700K, GPU: GTX 1060. I want good airflow.

No water cooling? Side-panel window/tempered glass? Preferred color? RGB?

There are even further specifics. Like power supply shrouds/basements. Number of hard drive mounts you might want, or SSD trays visible or hidden behind the motherboard tray. Fan hubs/controllers. There are a lot of options out there. Need something to narrow it down.

A list of your fans would also be useful, number of 80mm/120mm/140mm you have now, or if you want all new fans.

Sounds like you want a mesh front case for maximum airflow and Phanteks makes some decent cases there. But so does Cooler Master and others. Big 220/240mm fans are back, so that is also an option.

So this is the glass version of my case and I think it is one of the most versatile on the market right now.

I like this Cooler Master: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/mTCrxr/cooler-master-case-mcy005pkwn00

Meshify C is increasing in popularity. I would prefer a non styled mesh though: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/nL7v6h/fractal-design-meshify-c-tg-atx-mid-tower-case-fd-ca-mesh-c-bko-tgl

Sharkoon makes some decent fans and this case comes fully loaded. Not a straight through mesh, but it would be similar in performance to the S340. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/ZkCrxr/sharkoon-tg5-atx-mid-tower-case-4044951020591

Kind of goes downhill from there, less features, cheaper materials, less fans.
