For my next build i was wondering what case i should build in out of the two cases and was wondering how big the cases were and if they can fit most pc componets.

Lol my PSU is RGB and i still have it tucked away under a PSU shroud along with any cabling. But that's obviously just personal preference as already mentioned. I prefer the clean, elegant look over sporty look the Omega is trying...

Agreed with above, comes down to personal preference.

But if you want opinions, i'd go for the H700 personally. Looks far better to build with, having a PSU shroud and overall more roominess inside the case. Looks far better than the Corsair SPEC Omega too imo. Smooth finish over flimsy triangular front panel. :D

My own preference leans towards Spec-Omega, especially it's RGB version,
specs: https://www.corsair.com/ca/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Carbide-Series-SPEC-OMEGA-RGB/p/CC-9011140-WW

I prefer my PC case to have a bit of a fancy appearance, rather than looking like a plain and tasteless box, as H700 is. Also, PSU shroud, as such, is only to hide the laziness in cable management. I'd rather look at my Seasonic PRIME PSU with CableMod custom sleeved power cables, than some piece of plain metal covering it.

I prefer the clean, elegant look over sporty look the Omega is trying to achieve. But OP mentions size and i'd say the H700 would have more room to work with inside. If i could recommend any case to OP though, it would be this one > http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/mastercase-h500m/. I'm definitely bias though as i have one, absolute delight.

When it comes to the internal space then the best option would be full-tower ATX case, which i'm fond of. That's why my Skylake and Haswell builds are also inside full-tower ATX cases; Corsair 760T v2 Black and Corsair 750D AF Edition (full specs with pics in my sig).

As far as full-tower ATX cases go, Corsair 760T v2 is one of the best (if not the best) full-tower ATX case out there. And it also comes in as black or white color,
specs, black: https://www.corsair.com/eu/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Graphite-Series%E2%84%A2-760T-Full-Tower-Windowed-Case/p/CC-9011073-WW
specs, white: https://www.corsair.com/eu/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Graphite-Series%E2%84%A2-760T-Arctic-White-Full-Tower-Windowed-Case/p/CC-9011074-WW

Of course, when i was shopping for a full-tower ATX case for my Skylake build then Phanteks Enthoo Pro was also a consideration due to it's features, looks and build quality which is on-par with Corsair,

Then again, not many people like the majestic size of a full-tower ATX case and most people opt for going with mid-tower ATX case instead.
