This purchase was necessary because my old case (pre-built ASUS PC) did not allow for the installation of a high-performance cooling fan and generated a lot of noise.
The 500DX offers excellent airflow thanks to its mesh front panel.
In addition, the dust filters (front, bottom and top panel) are removable and easy to clean, which helps maintain good airflow over time without excessive dust accumulation.
The fans provided are efficient and quiet.
The interior space facilitates assembly and cable management.
A very good choice for those looking to improve both cooling and acoustic comfort.

excellent product, fair installation.
I came to see you to change my case and ventirad (you didn't want to install "liquid metal", which I supplied, instead of thermal paste (which is less efficient)).
I asked you to install software to manage my RGBs.
I've ended up with a new Windows that I can't link to my Microsoft account.
Fortunately, I have a friend who knows me well and who had to reinstall a new Windows (which, moreover, didn't hamper my performance).

Really good
Very quiet and tidy, but beware that you might quickly run out of space if you have a big GPU or CPU cooling. I'm using a Noctua NH-U12A Chromax Black as a CPU cooling unit and a Radeon RX 7800 XT and when I had to put it in, I couldn't for the life of me see the bracket itself due to the size of the cooling fan & the GPU.

Perfect
It's a beautiful tower that also provides good cooling.
Perfect for a modern, elegant workstation at an affordable price.

Nice case but...
I chose this box for 3 reasons:
- Aesthetics: beautiful casing with a discreet touch of RGB
- The quality of manufacture that this German brand evokes in me
- Silence, for the same reason
In the end, after only 2 weeks of use (LDLC assembly):
Plus points :
- the case is beautiful
- good quality materials (it seems to me)
- well assembled, does not vibrate, no physical defects (at first glance)
Minus point:
- the fans supplied are non-adjustable (3x pure wings 2 140, 2 at the front and 1 at the rear).
-They run at high speed all the time (it cools down for sure, but it's too noisy, much too noisy!).
- In the repot (at 21/22° in the room), watercooling at 0tr/m and processor at 28°, graphics card at 300 rpm and GPU at 29°, the noise level was 45db at 1m.
- Connected to the hub, the speed of these 3 fans is >4200 rpm, all three combined. Between 51 and 52 db with the tel close to the case out of the airflow.
- No system for tilting/removing the side glass. Be careful, the glass may hit the floor when removed.
In retrospect, I would have preferred to pay a few euros more to avoid this inconvenience. I'm going to replace the 3 Be Quiet (pitifully) supplied. That's an extra cost, which I hope won't be compounded by assembly costs.
But I think I can count on the professionalism of the team at the Rouen shop ;-)

Quality deteriorates at Be Quiet!
An oversized product for an ATX motherboard, I was able to install an E-ATX MSI MEG 790 ACE motherboard, as I only use M2 Pcie SSDs, so the huge space dedicated to HDD or SDD is completely free.
Personally, I preferred Be Quiet! when it wasn't making Christmas tree lighting, but on the other hand the thickness of the plates that make up the case were thicker and therefore much more rigid.
What's more, several of the rivets used to assemble the case are not properly fixed, which means that some of the plates move and vibrate.
I only have 6 Be Quiet! cases left, so I can see the evolution of "NON QUALITY" over the last few years.
It's a shame
