GPU:

I want a white build, however due to how I am purchasing the video card I can't get the hellhound. So I am looking at the black/Red that will go with the white.  Not sure if I want to do a vertical mount.

I would go with the Corsair memory and use the Corsair iCue software to control the LED colors of your AIO, Memory and case fans.  As for the amount of memory, some people have experienced stability problems with running at high settings when you have all four slots populated with 32 GB sticks.  I would stick with two 32 GB sticks for a total of 64 GB.

do you know if they sell dummy sticks? this way it looks like all dimms are filled?

I don't believe so, but maybe you could look into four of the 16 GB memory sticks, for a total of 64 GB.
