be quiet! Pure Base 500, schwarz, Glasfenster, schallgedämmt

kompakt und hochfunktional waren die Zielvorgaben für das be quiet! Pure Base 500. Es ist mit einer Länge von 45 Zentimetern das kleinste Gehäuse dieses Herstellers und die abgeflachten Ecken an der Front bewirken zudem eine optische Verkleinerung. Das Gehäuse besitzt ein Echtglasseitenteil und als Besonderheit zwei Abdeckungen für das Top. Interessant sind auch die Präsentationsmöglichkeiten von SSDs im Innenraum. Ob es weitere Besonderheiten gibt, klären wir im Test.

The be quiet! Pure Base 500 is an excellent case for users who want reduced sound from their components. Pure Base 500 has a stylish and simple design that works. The installation of components in this Mid-sized ATX case is very straight forward. The ability to customize internal space for custom water-cooling is a breeze. The front of the case can easily accommodate a large 360mm radiator. In my build, I used an AIO CPU cooling loop with a top-mounted 240mm radiator which was installed without issues.

The Pure Base 500 Window is among the most affordable PC cases be quiet! has ever produced and thus we didn’t exactly know what to expect from it. Luckily much like all their other cases build quality is not only high but thanks to the tempered glass panel the Pure Base 500 Window isn’t half bad when it comes to looks.

So, I am honestly trying to find things that are wrong with the the be quiet! Pure Base 500. I know, I say this often when it comes to cases, but bear with me: this case is the perfect example. be quiet! is selling the Pure Base 500 for $85 MSRP. Let that sink in. For that price, you get two 140 mm retail-grade fans, a solid and mesh top cover, and a solid, sturdily framed case with a high-quality glass panel. All that makes for a good buy to start with. Now consider the fact that you can install a whole six hard drives, especially considering that you may even throw a thin 360 mm radiator into the front without sacrificing any storage.
