be quiet! Pure Base 500 Window Metallic Gray MIDI Tower Case - BGW36
be quiet! Pure Base 500 Window Metallic Gray combines customizable and silence features with a compact and sophisticated design.
Perfect for silent air-cooled systems
The regular top cover perfectly rounds off the design of the Pure Base 500. An insulation mat attached underneath ensures a silent operation. It is the perfect choice for air-cooled systems and regular, silent PC configurations. Strong magnets make sure the top covers fits firmly.
Maximum airflow for water-cooled configurations
For all who strive for maximum performance and especially with water-cooled systems, the extremely air-permeable top cover is the right choice. It is made of light meshed fabrics, ensuring the highest airflow possible.
Whisper-quiet operation
Two preinstalled Pure Wings 2 fans with airflow-optimized fan blades that ensure perfect airflow and cooling. Despite the compact case design the front and rear fans are both 140mm models, resulting in very quiet operation. Up to three 140mm fans can be installed in addition.
Achieving great silence and stability
The front, sides and regular top cover are equipped with insulation mats that result in great stability and improved noise dampening capabilities. The dust filters on the front and bottom are easy to remove for cleaning.
Generous space for high-end hardware
The Pure Base 500 provides generous dimensions to install high-end graphics cards and large coolers of up to 190mm in height. Fans or a radiator up to 360mm can be installed easily at the front and the top area also provides space for more fans or a radiator up to 240mm.
Great cable routing possibilities
Pure Base 500 offers various possibilities for installing up to 5 SSDs in total. 2 can be installed for prominent viewing through the window panel. To hide any unwanted cables, the case offers excellent cable routing options.
A neat interior
The PSU shroud perfectly covers the cables and PSU. It also contains a double HDD cage with decoupled mountings that reduce vibrations and help maximize the silence. The cage can also be repositioned to install a radiator of up to 360mm at the front. The power supply unit can be easily installed from behind, mounted on the PSU bracket provided.
A perfect view inside your PC
The high-quality, fully-windowed side panel offers a perfect view of the components inside your PC case. The window is made of tempered glass with gray painted side bars.
