There are lots of micro itx cases that fit full sized GPUs for gaming, ranging from cheap to ££s and nice. Your budget should get you something very capable. It will always be noisier than the equivalent larger case, as airflow will by nature be more restricted, ergo fans will spin up more. It's really hard to accurately predict this, obviously the more powerful processor/card you get, the more headroom to undervolt stuff if you really want fans to spin up less.
r/sffpc might not be a bad jumping off point for inspo/build lists, particularly to visualise other peoples builds so you can think about how airflow might work for what you want. In terms of build, it's exactly the same as any other form factor, just more fiddly. pcpartpicker is another great tool for quick comparisons of features/compatibility
