So I am about to build my rig I've got a good sum of money yet I'm doubting myself I want to do some fairly good gaming and I'm thinking of water cooling nothing intense just a radiator for the CPU but I want a white corsair case to fit a decent radiator...

Thanks for any help I get

Corsair C70, but 600T is a mighty fine looking case, as well you could look into the phantom 530 and the 750D when that comes out. Bitfenix makes the Shinobi which is a very nice case but is a hell of a lot cheaper than these ones (~$50 cheaper), Fractal as the Arc Midi which as all about air and water cooling but they do have the R4 which is all about quiet but you can fit a 240 rad in there. All of those cases are really good, pick the one you think looks the best.

The only white cases I know of from Corsair, is either the 600T or the C70, I think you can get a 500R too but not to sure. It is hard to recommend a case though as it's all about personal preference. All of these will fit the H100i. Not sure about Push/Pull configurations though.

750D? 

"Apparently" there is a 750D coming out from Corsair. Not sure if it will be White though. There is a thread on the forum about this case somewhere.

 

EDIT: Scrap that, there is some unboxings already from Mr Linus and TTL, didn't even know! :D *facepalm*
