Best mid tower for around 100 dollar

[GooBall]

The case must have room for the corsair h100i, good airflow, A windowed side panel and around 100 dollar
And are the Corsair vengeance c70 or the Cooler Master n600 good options?

Depends what you like, I haven't had a look at the Corsair H100i for compatibility. Under $100s people like the:
- Cooler Master N600
- Cooler Master 922 or 912
- NZXT Phantom
- Corsair Carbide Series 400r
- Fractal Design Pearl R4
- Fractal Design Midi 2 ($10 over)

Obviously there are wayy more cases, but personally, I am really liking the N600 and Fractal cases. I'm buying the N600 soon.

SO, I didn't see the "window" preference... sorry but either way, my biased perspective is N600!

Check out the cooler master storm enforcer. Its a little under budget and very nice. Granted I haven't owned a super high end case but I sure can't think of anything it lacks.

In addition, if you're leaning towards the N600. Here are some reviews:

Likewise, there are two mods (one with window, and one without, so if you're getting the N600 - make sure you select the window one!)

Is the fractal design core 3000 also good?
Doesnt have a window but willing to sacrifice that for the looks

That depends on your other components.
- "the case supports longer PSUs, typically 250mm in length"
- "Supports CPU coolers with height of 160mm"

Your Corsair H100i will be exhasuting inside the case. I don't think it will mount from images.

Alternatives
- Fractal Design Pearl R4
- Fractal Design Midi 2 ($10 over)
