Best/best looking white full tower?

For my new build I'm going to be getting a white full tower case. It has to be white because pretty much everything in my new room is gray/graphite with a few things being white, so I think a white case would look best.

The case needs to have great airflow, enough room to mount a Swiftech H240-X, enough room for 2x Windforce GTX 980s, really good cable management with a good amount of space on the side for management, and a multi-fan controller on the side for even more cable management. One or two SSD mounts would be nice so I don't have to use the drive bays for SSDs.

What would you recommend?

Wouldn't the H440 have airflow problems with that piece on the front covering everything?

It will have less than one with a fancy grill in the front, but it also looks more elegant with a sleek front.

 

It still has vents down the side of the front to let air in, so it'll be fine still.

So is the H440 better than the H630?

EDIT: H440 is incompatible with my build in so many ways. Should I do H630?

Potential Issues/Incompatibilities:

1 additional external 5.25" drive bay is needed.

Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer and NZXT H440 (White/Black) ATX Mid Tower Case are not compatible.

The NZXT H440 (White/Black) ATX Mid Tower Case supports video cards up to 406mm long, but video cards over 294mm may block drive bays. Since the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 4GB WINDFORCE Video Card is 312mm long, some drive bays may not be usable.

I own the Enthoo Luxe White. Those LEDs outside and some LEDs behind the mobo. Beautiful piece of metal.

Have a look at the CM Storm Stryker maybe? Not sure if it'll fit your build perfectly, but damn it looks good.

The issues are A. The case has no 5.25 inch drive bay AKA, no DVD watching for you (AHEM NETFLIX).

B. As said before.

C. The drive bays aren't that important unless you're using a bunch of drives (like, more than 4). You can remove the top set of bays and be fine.

Yeah, black and white. And, as far as I can see, it's gonna be pretty easy to do some modding in the future.

 

Also, the Primo is gigantic, it's made to fit, what, 17 480mm radiators and hard to make the air move inside.

I personally am a fan of the Switch 810. It's huge and it looks great. My only complaint with it is how much plastic is used on the exterior.

The S340 from NZXT is pretty nice if you like the modern square box like industrial design all metal very little plastic on it:
