For all those seeking maximum performance, especially with water-cooled systems, the Pure Base 500DX with its highly permeable air front and top cover is the right choice. The dust filters on the front and bottom are easily removable for cleaning.
Three pre-installed Pure Wings 2 fans
Silent operation
Three pre-installed Pure Wings 2 fans with optimized airflow, fan blades that ensure perfect airflow and cooling. Despite the compact design of the case, the front, top, and rear fans are 140 mm, resulting in very quiet operation. Up to two additional 140 mm fans can also be installed..
ARGB Lighting
at the front and inside the case
The ARGB LEDs offer many colors and functions to customize the appearance of the case both inside and outside. You can optionally synchronize the lighting with the motherboard or the ARGB controller.
Smart I/O Ports
A USB 3.2 Gen. 2 Type C port is provided on the front panel and allows the use of the latest hardware. There is also a switch on the front panel for controlling the internal and external LEDs.
Design
Plenty of space for hardware
The Pure Base 500DX provides generous dimensions for the installation of high-end graphics cards and large coolers up to 190 mm in height. Fans or a radiator up to 360 mm can be easily installed at the front, and the top area also provides space for more fans or a radiator up to 240 mm.
Installation Options
Cable routing
The Pure Base 500DX offers various options for installing up to five SSDs in total. Two can be installed for visible display through the window. To hide any unwanted cables, the case offers excellent cable management options.
PSU that offers a tidy interior
The PSU cover perfectly conceals the cables and the PSU. It also includes a dual HDD cage with decoupled mounts that reduce vibrations and help maximize silent operation. The cage can also be repositioned to install a radiator up to 360 mm at the front. The power supply unit can be easily installed from the rear, mounted on the provided PSU bracket.

In the mid category, it has everything. Very good cable management. Excellent initial fans. In silent mode, you can't hear anything. In full mode, of course, they can be heard. The pluses are the RGB it has.
A simple and beautiful case with many options. I have been satisfied for over a year+. Bequiet has won me over with their products for years. Good prices and of course quality
It is a wonderful spacious case. I like the RGB it has on the front. It is spacious inside. There are also some removable parts to make it even more spacious according to the requirements. I have a little issue with dust, it easily catches it. It has enough gaps so you can also do good cable management.
One of the most practical and convenient boxes in this price category. It is spacious and comfortable and I don't think there is anything you can't do with it.
I bought it initially for a professional space because I needed a spacious box, which would be somewhat discreet (compared to what is available in "gamer" boxes).
I liked it so much that I bought a second one in black for home!
Owner for about 20 days. In the guts, it works, i7 14700kf, with RTX 4070 super, 32 GB DDR5, 2 hard drives, Be Quiet! liquid cooling, plugged into Asus TUF H770. Everything works as it should, nicely organized, cool, and the main thing quietly! The case is very high quality! Just be careful with the side glass.
Almost everything made a very good impression. Until I tried to remove the glass, it slipped from a height of 1-2 inches and as soon as it touched the tile below it shattered. Afterwards, I read that it is a known issue with tempered glass, it cannot withstand impacts on tiles. And it has a history of glass removal and shattering. So either make sure to have a soft material every time the glass can be inserted/removed, or prefer another case with a different and safer type of protection. Now I made a patent to put my own plastic protector.
While it has many positives that you don't find in other boxes, the slightly fake screws in the back and the very limited way to pass the cables make me give it 4 stars... If it was 75 euros, I wouldn't write anything.
It does its job well, has the necessary space (not particularly spacious), completely shuts off the RGB if someone wants, you can add more fans if needed, has good cable management. Overall good construction, time will tell.
One of the best cases.
The airflow is extremely good.
Guys, even after a few hours of gaming, my CPU did not exceed 45C. Okay, it helps a lot that I have installed a liquid cooling system, but still.
The same goes for my GPU. The fans hardly ever started because the temperature was constantly below 60C.
All the other positives have already been discussed here, I can only agree.
Was it worth the money? 100%.
Would I buy it again for my Gaming PC? 100%
Once again, be quiet proves that it is a serious company that respects the consumer. The case is truly impeccable for its price. It is silent, spacious, with clever disk placements and excellent cable management capabilities. Even with a non-modular power supply, the cables are easily hidden, especially if no HDDs are installed. Overall, the installation of all hardware is very easy and hassle-free. The three 140mm fans do an excellent job and, combined with the design of the case, provide ideal airflow. As for the lights and such, although I'm not a fan, it offers many alternatives, various colors and effects, and even synchronized RGB function with the other connected components. If I can mention a negative aspect, it would be the single USB-A port on the case. Of course, it also has a USB-C, but it would be useful to have an additional A port. In conclusion, it is definitely worth the money and more.
Nice and valuable case. Spacious, it easily fits even the largest cards (I have a 2070 ti super). Plenty of space for cable management at the back. Great convenience with the detachable parts inside the case for passing cables and screwing in disks, etc.
If you don't have an HDD yet, there is even more space in front of the PSU to dance the cables.
It came with 3 fans (rear, top, front, no RGB), relatively quiet. The only downside for me is only 1 USB 3 on the case and 1 type C.
Filters with magnets outside the case that are easily removable (top, bottom, and the front one, which requires removing the front panel, though it takes some love and patience).
Overall, a good and comfortable case, shapeless, discreet, not a carnival with many lights, etc. Sturdy and heavy construction with spaciousness and comfort
An amazing case with great airflow that doesn't disappoint in installation, makes cable management a breeze, and comes with a range of different color modes that you can change with a click. I've been using it for a few years now and it has left me completely satisfied, especially when paired with a Be Quiet power supply and fan.
Simply an amazing box for its price, I didn't expect such good cable management! You can hardly hear anything, very quiet, and as for its beauty, what can I say... The only thing that bothers me is that it only has 1 USB port in the front of the box... the 2 that are needed are a must...
Excellent case! Everything good that has been written is true! Incredible cable management, with white Asian horse cables, ARGB controller, 6 case fans, extensions for fan power, I don't know where the case could give you any trouble. Obviously, if you have the HDD case, the space is reduced, but still, it would fit just fine. Amazing construction, sturdy, beautiful with the front and interior LEDs, and space for everything. It has a Gigabyte 1070, TUF B550 plus midi, 6 case fans, Be Quiet Pure Rock 2 FX, and had no issues whatsoever. Visually stunning, practically perfect, easy to assemble if you have experience. Excellent airflow, the processor stays at 55 degrees with everything mentioned above! The only thing I have to mention, not as a negative but as a reference, is that the front panel requires incredible pressure to remove it to the point where you think you'll break the case. At €100, it's a top choice!
The case is quite high-quality with good cable management and air flow. What bothered me a lot is the sound of the fans and the fact that there was no cable for connecting the RGB to the motherboard.
Well, the positives are that:
1) The case is perfect.
2) Excellent quality.
3) Extremely quiet (with three fans and CPU airflow).
4) Spacious and wide, I would say relatively.
5) The airflow is really good... it also has pads on the corners on the bottom surface, giving it a slight elevation.
6) It has glass on the left side, not plastic.
7) It has insulation to absorb the noise.
8) The screws are excellent and don't come out because they stay on top until you screw them back in.
9) It is perforated everywhere.
10) Relatively lightweight.
11) The lighting is excellent and just right... without being too flashy or showy.
Many options with different colors on the front button.
Negatives:
1) The front cover needs to be opened carefully and in a certain way, because if you take it off casually and forcefully, the clips may break and the power supply for the front lighting in the vertical line may not fit properly
(for those who can't imagine, there are three pins that make contact as soon as the cover is closed and the power passes through).
2) I would also like a bit more space on the back side for the cables, but it's not that tragic, you can still do your job.
3) I would also like a bit more opening in the vertical gap in order to easily pass thick cables.
4) I would like another USB 3 port on the front because the type C it has is not that active yet.
In the end, the case is worth its money.
For someone who wants to spend relatively little money and get something reliable, this is the solution.
Very good case with plenty of space for a midi Tower.
Very good performance in terms of air flow and sound.
Just be careful if you use a 360 radiator, you may need to pay a little more attention and think about how to mount it in the front.
For me, the Liquid Freezer II 360 from Arctic fits just barely (I had researched it beforehand and the hose from the pump needs to be bent quite a bit because there isn't much free space in that area due to the power supply shroud)
The case is excellent for its price at 100€ that I found it, it has plenty of space for cable management on the side exterior as well as soundproofing material on the metal panel. It has 3 dust filters on top, bottom, and front which are magnetic and easy to remove. The water cooling served me well by placing it only in the front, but still had enough space for the bulky 3090. Finally, this specific case has very good airflow if you install the appropriate fans in the right way without making much noise, definitely one of the best value for money!!!!
It has plenty of space even though it's a Mid Tower case,
120mm fans and it includes
Arctic Freezer 34
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
Gigabyte B550 Aorus
Corsair RM750x
RTX 3060 12GB
A very good case, possibly one of the best, that you can buy for around 100 euros. I have nothing to say. The cable management is perfect and it doesn't require much effort to make it look nice. It has a lot of space at the back and as for airflow, I have to say that I've had it for 7 months and there's no trace of dust inside. The fans are quiet and even the graphics card fans, which are not silent, are not audible due to the good and high-quality construction
A beautiful case, with 3 high-quality fans. The glass is also high-quality, I don't understand those who say it's not because it's quite thick and not thin. I had a little difficulty with cable management, especially in the front, as it was difficult to pass the power supply cable through the SSD slots and above the processor on the upper left. It may be due to my motherboard, but as a beginner, it was a bit challenging when I was installing them, especially with the motherboard cable, it barely fit. Maybe it's also because the power supply was semi-modular, but with a little persistence, I managed to fix it. There is extra space where the power supply goes to fit any excess cables.
*I opened it up and during operation, you can't hear anything from the fans, incredible airflow and beautiful LED that you can synchronize with the rest of the LEDs through the motherboard. An amazing case, worth every last euro in my opinion. The fans are of very high quality, even though they run at full speed, you can't hear anything. Idle with the stock fans is at 50 degrees for the CPU+GPU, the case is designed to breathe
If you're looking for a computer case, I generally consider BeQuiet to be a guarantee. It's excellent for its money, in other companies it would have a higher price. The cable management is amazing, it's quiet (of course, it depends on the motherboard). No dust gets inside, it has sliding filters on top, bottom, and back. The lighting is fantastic (it has many colors, lighting scales, but also a combination of all colors in fade and flow) and it doesn't tire at all. I highly recommend it.
It was used for video editing setup. It came with 2 pre-installed 140mm fans and shows good Air Flow. It is quite spacious and has satisfactory cable management. On the front and top, you have a Type C port and a USB 3gen. I would prefer it to have at least one more USB.
