With the Pure Base 500, silent specialist be quiet! expands its case range with an affordable mid-tower featuring pre-installed sound insulation and an adaptable interior.

Overview of the features of the be quiet! Pure Base 500 mid-tower:

  • Simple mid-tower from be quiet! in anthracite
  • Suitable for radiators up to 360 millimetres
  • Pre-installed noise insulation on the front, sides, and top
  • Flexible adjustment thanks to a replaceable top cover
  • Includes two 140-millimetre Pure Wings 2 fans
  • Supports up to 2x 3.5-inch and 5x 2.5-inch drives

Pure Base 500: Stylish, functional, and quiet

The be quiet! Pure Base 500 offers excellent options for powerful yet quiet cooling solutions: three 120mm or two 140mm fans can be installed at the front, the top accommodates two 140mm or 120mm models, and the rear can also hold one 140mm or 120mm fan. Factory-fitted, the Pure Base 500 includes two pre-installed 140mm Pure Wings 2 fans, one at the front and one at the rear of the case. The Pure Base 500 supports CPU coolers up to 190 millimetres in height.

Custom and all-in-one water cooling installations have also been considered: the front is suitable for a 360mm or 280mm radiator, while the top can accommodate a 240mm heat exchanger, and the rear panel can hold a 140mm or 120mm model. To ensure optimal airflow, the sound-dampened standard top cover can be swapped for a ventilated version.

Under the power supply cover, alongside 225mm long power supplies, there is space for two 3.5-inch drives and one 2.5-inch drive in a modular drive cage. Its decoupled installation reduces vibrations and enables quiet operation. Two 2.5-inch drives can be installed on the SSD panel between the motherboard tray and the front, and two more 2.5-inch SSDs fit on the SSD bracket at the rear of the motherboard tray. Graphics cards can be up to 369 millimetres in length.

The be quiet! Pure Base 500 features smooth surfaces and a forward-set, octagonal front panel with side air intakes. The mid-tower’s I/O panel is located at the top of the front cover and includes, besides a power button, two USB 3.0 Type-A ports, a headphone output, and a microphone input.

HardwaremAx - BE QUIET! PURE BASE 500

be quiet! liefert mit dem Pure Base 500 ein tolles Gehäuse, das zu einer Art Standardempfehlung für den preisbewussten Käufer werden könnte. Das liegt, neben dem geringen Preis von 65€ (ohne Fenster), an dem kompromisslosen Platzangebot und dem durchdachten Innenraum. Trotz seiner Kompaktheit gibt es luftgekühlten Systemen keine Einschränkungen und auch AiOs finden ihren Platz.

In Sachen Verarbeitung und Funktionalität (modulare Elemente, Staubfilter, Thumbscrews) dürfen sich viele Konkurrenten ebenfalls eine Scheibe abschneiden.
