The Definitive All-White Gaming PC You Should Build In 2024

With the next-gen AMD Ryzen 9000 and Intel Arrow Lake CPUs just around the corner, it might not be the most ideal time to build a gaming PC right now. But, if you’ve been holding on for months already and want to build an all-white, current-gen system that will comfortably last you for years without requiring upgrades, you can still go ahead. Plus, the white-themed build we’re going to suggest is fully ready for drop-in CPU upgrades without the need to change your motherboard, at least until 2027.

The gaming PC we’re going to build is a $2,000 high-end rig capable of tearing through any modern AAA title. Plus, the components we’ve chosen will give it an ethereal look, complete with gorgeous RGB lighting and a striking all-white design. This is arguably the best-looking, highest-quality, white-themed gaming PC you can build today. We’ve had to swap some components for alternatives due to availability issues, but that doesn’t take away from the beauty of the build.

Best components for the definitive all-white gaming PC in 2024

Best CPU

AMD Ryzen 5 7600

The ideal 6-core gaming chip

$199 $229 Save $30

AMD’s 6-core Ryzen 5 7600 is all you really need for an AM5 gaming PC. It provides enough performance to support any high-end GPU, runs cool, and even comes with a stock cooler.

If gaming is your only concern, you shouldn’t look at anything other than the Ryzen 5 7600 for your CPU needs. This 6-core, 12-thread AM5 processor is an underclocked Ryzen 5 7600X with essentially the same gaming performance but a lower price tag. It features the same core configuration and cache as the 7600X but comes with a lower TDP of 65W instead of 105W.

Even if you compare it to its Intel counterparts like the Core i5-13600K or Core i5-14600K, there’s very little separating these chips in gaming performance. Plus, you’re getting it for around $50 less than the Intel picks. Moreover, buying Intel will tie you to the now-obsolete LGA 1700 platform, whereas the Ryzen 5 7600 is on the latest AM5 platform from AMD that will enjoy support at least until 2027.

AMD Ryzen 5 7600 review: An impressively affordable Zen 4 CPU

With the AMD Ryzen 5 7600, there’s little reason to go for the 7600X.

Overall, you’re buying one of the best gaming CPUs — a $200 6-core chip on a modern socket with enough performance to keep up with almost any high-end GPU.

Best CPU cooler

Thermaltake TH360 V2 ARGB Sync

Great performance, great looks, great price

TheThermaltake TH360 V2 ARGB Sync AIO liquid cooler is one of the most value-packed cooling systems you can buy. It is not only more than enough for any 6-core CPU but will keep pace with any future CPU upgrades you make. The ARGB fans and pump can be customized to sync with the overall RGB theme of your build.

When you’re using a CPU like the Ryzen 5 7600 in your build, you don’t really need the best CPU liquid cooler. But, the Thermaltake TH360 V2 ARGB Sync is ready for the future when you eventually switch to a new and likely more power-hungry processor. Plus, to make the most of an all-white build, a 360mm AIO is more or less necessary to completely occupy the top of your PC case.

The TH360 V2 ARGB Sync can easily handle almost any high-end CPU with ease. Plus, its three 120mm ARGB fans and infinity mirror pump provide a decent dose of RGB lighting to your build. The all-white design is minimalist yet eye-catching, to keep up with the rest of your white-themed components.

Best GPU

Gigabyte RTX 4070 Ti Super AERO OC

Blistering performance and gorgeous aesthetics

$821 $880 Save $59

TheGigabyte RTX 4070 Ti Super AERO OC is a big improvement over its predecessor, providing 16GB of VRAM and incredible performance for the price. Its understated white design is perfect for those building a high-end, sophisticated gaming rig.

The graphics card is invariably the most exciting component of any gaming PC, and the Gigabyte RTX 4070 Ti Super AERO OC takes that excitement up several notches. Thanks to its brilliant white design, exceptional cooling, whisper-silent operation, and excellent performance, it’s a no-brainer for this all-white build. The RTX 4070 Ti Super is one of the best GPUs you can buy today, offering top-tier 1440p and great 4K performance.

The Gigabyte AERO OC variant combines that performance with an impressive and massive cooling system with understated RGB lighting on the logo. It’s the perfect model for anyone wanting to reserve RGB lighting for the rest of their PC, desiring an industrial yet striking design for their graphics card. Mounting this card vertically will further enhance the esthetics of your gaming PC, and I highly recommend doing that.

Best motherboard

Gorgeous white design & premium features

$210 $240 Save $30

The Gigabyte B650 Aorus Elite AX ICE offers premium aesthetics and great features at an affordable price. Its white PCB is a rare addition, which combined with its top-notch build quality, VRM design, and next-gen features, makes this board perfect for any high-end, all-white build.

This is extremely rare, and even more so for a motherboard in this price range.

Next, if you look at the features you’re getting in this B650 motherboard, there’s a 16-phase VRM solution, a PCIe 5.0 and 2 PCIe 4.0 M.2 slots, high-speed DDR5 RAM support, full-coverage heatsinks for all M.2 slots, integrated Wi-Fi 6E, 2.5 GbE Ethernet, Q-Flash Plus, a DIY-friendly design, and plenty of USB-A and USB-C ports.

In terms of the read and write speeds, you’re getting 7,300 MB/s and 6,350 MB/s respectively, which are near the top-end of the PCIe 4.0 standard. It’s also one of the most reliable SSDs you can buy, offering 1200 TBW of endurance. The excellent performance, affordable pricing, and impressive design make the SN850X one of the best picks for a gaming-focused build.

If you’re concerned about the lack of an all-white design, the dual-chamber case below will take care of that — you’re not going to see the PSU when admiring your all-white gaming rig.

Best PC case

Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini

A fantastic white dual-chamber case

$114 $135 Save $21

The Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini offers enough and more for its price, considering it supports ATX motherboards, 360mm radiators, triple-fan graphics cards, and is available in a white design. The mini-tower form factor saves you some space while keeping your PC’s looks classy.

The PC case is the first thing anyone notices about your PC. For an all-white build, it becomes essential to make the perfect choice. The Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini combines all the benefits of the O11 Dynamic with a smaller footprint, providing you with a gorgeous white design, a dual-chamber form factor, and Lian Li’s excellent build quality.

The best white PC cases might look great, but you still run the risk of building something that looks like every other white PC on the internet. With the O11 Dynamic Mini, you can stand out thanks to the compact form factor. The “Snow White” variant of the case becomes a great canvas for your all-white build. Plus, the case has plenty of space for all your components, from 360mm radiators and full-length graphics cards, to multiple fans and ATX motherboards.

It doesn’t come with pre-installed fans, but you can easily install some after-market ones (which we will do). The brushed aluminum exudes a premium feel and the I/O provides you with two USB 3.0 ports, a Type-C port, and a headphone jack. The freedom this case offers is tremendous — you can build an ATX, mini-ITX, or micro-ATX system inside it, thanks to the modular components. You’re also getting enough cooling and above-average noise control with this case.

Best fans

Corsair iCUE AR120 RGB Triple Fan Kit

Premium ARGB fans

$53 $55 Save $2

The Corsair iCUE AR120 RGB fans offer plenty of cooling for your case and come in a beautiful white design with gorgeous RGB lighting. They also come with a zero RPM mode and iCUE lighting support.

The last piece of this all-white puzzle is a set of premium white ARGB fans, as the O11 Dynamic Mini doesn’t come with fans of its own. Thankfully, a triple-pack of the Corsair iCUE AR120 RGB fans can be had for a reasonable price, considering their great looks and high-end performance. To adequately populate the O11 Dynamic Mini, you’ll need 6 of these — 3 as bottom intake, 2 as side intake, and 1 as rear exhaust.

So, you’ll need two triple-packs to round off your all-white gaming PC. The price of these fans might be on the higher side; however, the value they bring in terms of not just the esthetics, but also the features, will certainly impress. They’re capable of 59CFM of airflow and run extremely silent. Plus, there’s a zero RPM mode as well that is activated when your system isn’t under load.

Some of the best PC case fans don’t look as good as the AR120s, while costing significantly more than them. Corsair’s iCUE software might not be your favorite, but it works perfectly if you have other Corsair components. Besides, you can always use any other RGB customization software of your choice to control the RGB theme of your build.

Build the perfect all-white gaming PC

The “best” all-white PC might be a subjective thing, but we believe that this PC comes the closest to the definitive version of that. The Lian Li O11 Dynamic Mini easily gives your PC one of the most iconic looks available. The Gigabyte B650 Aorus Elite AX ICE is hands down the best-looking white B650 motherboard on the market, featuring a rare white PCB in addition to premium features.

The Gigabyte RTX 4070 Ti Super AERO OC brings a unique flair to the entire build, becoming the centerpiece around which your other white components are arranged. The RAM might be one of the smaller components, but the Corsair Vengeance RGB kit we’ve used manages to stand out on its own, thanks to the best RGB design we’ve seen. And the Thermaltake TH360 V2 ARGB Sync not only provides excellent cooling, but also a striking all-white design with gorgeous RGB lighting.
