Abstract: Are PC first impressions important? It all depends on the PC. For a pre-built desktop system sitting in an office, a plain black or beige chassis tells you all you need-and probably, want-to know. (Yawn, you're a bore.) For a custom-made computer, though...
Abstract: Your house, according to the legendary advice of George Carlin, is the place where you put your stuff while you go get more stuff. But a PC tower case is not just the box where you put your PC components while you earn money to buy better ones. (These day...

I honestly think this is one of the best PC cases I've seen in a while. I actually say that a lot recently, but brands have really upped their game. A few years ago this case would have been triple the price. Amazing build quality, modular, easy access du...

Decent airflow and cooling, Low noise levels, USB TypeC on the front I/O, Full Tempered Glass window
The top of the case has limited space above the motherboard, We would prefer PWM fans, ideally with a small fan hub, Removing the SSD bracket and drive cages leave holes in the midplate
be quiet! has broken very little new ground with the Pure Base 500DX as they have introduced ARGB lighting in a mesh front panel and have tacked a USB Type-C on the front I/O. These are perfectly reasonable moves, however we have seen these features in a...
Apart from a couple of niggles such as longer Velcro being needed for the cable anchors and few slightly cramped areas inside the chassis, Be Quiet! has nailed it with the Pure Base 500DX. We love the design, it's different, the lighting is funky and easi...
Improved cooling potential, Petite mid-tower frame, USB Type-C connectivity, Three good-quality 140mm fans included, Addressable RGB lighting, if that's your thing, Good build quality throughout
Front fascia an acquired taste, Not as quiet as Pure Base 500, No reset button or HDD LED
be quiet! has quickly followed-up on last year's Pure Base 500 with an airflow-optimised model designed to address both consumer and reviewer feedback.Dubbed the Pure Base 500DX and priced at £90, the new variant is aimed squarely at those who liked t...
Three included Pure Wings 2 fans, Excellent thermal performance, Lots of RGB, Superbly easy to work in, Front USB 3.1 Gen. 2 Type-C port,
Loud performance under load, Just one front USB Type-A port, Front air filter difficult to access
The be quiet! Pure Base 500DX is an easy-to-use chassis with lots of included extras and great thermal performance. Just know it needs quiet components to keep noise levels down under load...
Tempered Glass Option, Great Paint Finish, ARGB and PWM Hub, Silent Wings ARGB Fans, Plenty of Cooling Options, Full Radiator Support, Vented Basement Panel
Expansion slot screws outside the case, Not big enough for a full DIY loop
In this review we looked at the Pure Base 500FX from be quiet! This is a down market chassis designed for enthusiast builders looking for a cost-effective chassis that fits the “gaming” profile. Cost effective means different things in the computer world...

Abstract: The Be Quiet! Pure Base 500DX promises exceptional airflow and significant quiet. Does it deliver? Let's first take a look at the manufacturer's specs.Starting upfront, you can see a complete mesh grill allowing adequate air intake. With the front panel o...
Good looking case overall, Front mesh for high airflow, 3 included fans, Lighting element on front and inside the case, Velcro straps included for easy cable routing, Room for up to six hard drives
No vertical GPU slot
When it comes to cases there are a lot of things we want and I think the Pure Base 500DX has a lot to offer if you are a first time builder or you've been building PCs for years. I think the biggest advantage the Pure Base 500DX has over many cases is tha...
