Overview

Sober, compact and quiet

The be quiet! Pure Base 500 Window is a mid-tower case with a quiet design that allows you to assemble almost any configuration based on a mini-ITX, micro-ATX or ATX motherboard. The optimised interior space allows for up to 5 SSDs, a 190mm high fan and a 369mm graphics card. The tempered glass side panel offers a clear view of the components inside your PC case.

Be Quiet! has taken care of the quiet operation by installing two Pure Wings 2 140 mm fans and by fitting the Pure Base 500 with insulating mats on the front, sides and solid side panel. It also offers plenty of cable storage options to hide unwanted cables.

Generous interior space

The Pure Base 500 offers generous dimensions for the installation of high-end graphics cards and large cooling systems up to 190mm high. Fans or heat sinks up to 360 mm can be easily installed in the front. The upper area offers space for fans or radiators up to 240 mm.

Ultra-quiet operation

Two pre-installed Pure Wings 2 fans with optimised blades ensure perfect airflow and constant cooling. Despite the compact design of the case, the front and rear fans are 140mm models, ensuring very quiet operation, and three additional 140mm fans can be installed as an option.

A neat interior

The power supply cover perfectly covers the cables, the power supply unit and contains a double hard disk rack. The double HDD cage with decoupled brackets reduces vibrations and helps to maximise silence. It can also be repositioned to fit radiators up to 360mm in front. Using the PSU bracket, the power supply can be easily installed from the rear.

Minimised noise

The front, side and top panels are fitted with insulating mats, providing high stability and optimised noise reduction capabilities. Dust filters at the front and bottom are easy to remove for cleaning.

Main features:

  • Medium tower case for motherboards in the following formats: ATX, micro-ATX, mini-ITX
  • Tempered glass side panel
  • Efficient cooling system(2 x 140mm Pure Wings 2 fans included and 3 x 140mm additional slots available)

  • Insulation mats on front, sides and solid side panel

    Compact but not 100% silent

    I was looking for a case that wouldn't take up too much space, so naturally I turned to this Bequiet case. I'm very satisfied with the performance of this case, except for the choice of fans. I had to replace them with silent wings, which doesn't make the price very attractive compared with Bequiet's higher-end models, which are super-quiet but bulkier. Nevertheless, if you're looking for a compact, good-quality case, you won't be disappointed.

    Excellent case

    I've been using this box since I ordered it on 26/03/2024! It's just perfect! I can't recommend it enough!

    My graphics card, a 4070Ti Suprim x, is one of the biggest on the market and fits in without a hitch!

    sobriety

    proof that space is sometimes needed to minimise :
    . noise, with dense foam reinforcements on the walls and the storage of mechanical hdd in the back.
    . ventilation, with modularity and diversity of fans at all points.
    . dust, with perforated plastic filters that leave room for reinforcements.
    . handling, with a high level of comfort.
    . storage, with concealment and guide.
    . clips for screwless, effortless handling.
    . metal walls that allow magnets to be used.
    . my comments, in other words, rave reviews.

    Modular at will

    Lightweight, no-frills case, generous dimensions, but with space to attach components, with removable elements as required.

    aptly named

    What silence with an MSI MPG A650GF power supply and an i5 14400 (ventirad supplied with the proc).
    Practical, no tools required, easy to fit, ATX motherboard mounting studs are almost all already in place.

    top-notch box

    Although it's bigger than I thought, I'm very happy with it! There's plenty of room inside for the components, which simplifies assembly, the cable passages are very practical, and the 2 original fans are relatively quiet... thank you BeQuiet and LDLC!

    Ideal

    A sober, relatively silent box that seems built to last.
    When you look at it (I took it in white), you get a feeling of 'quiet strength'.
    The finish is clean and there's an easily retractable filter at every aperture.
    This case has been optimised to cool the graphics card efficiently, and it does so very well indeed.
    For ideal ventilation, another 14 cm fan needs to be added to the front panel so that the CPU is also properly ventilated. With this little extra, the case is just... perfect.

    Very good and quiet

    I had trouble tightening the fan when I first installed it, the processor rose to 100°C in games and 50 at rest. I screwed the fan onto the CM better, and it heats up to 65°c max for an I5-12600K in games, using the full speed fans. in Windows, the standard temperature is around 30°c.

    Is there a risk of breaking a processor if you screw the fan too tightly onto a motherboard? or is that what it's designed for? I've always been told not to tighten it all the way. I'm stubborn

    No USB-C

    Overall, I'm happy with it, it's smaller than my previous case, the Corsair Carbide Series 678C White, which was bigger.

    The only downside is that I should have looked at the specifications of the case in more detail. I had assumed that a case like this, even if it has been on the market for a few years, would be brought up to date... Well no, there's no USB-C connector on the front. Shame, one less star.
