Mid tower case
The be quiet! Pure Base 500 is a mid-tower case with a silent design that allows you to assemble almost any configuration based on a mini-ITX, micro-ATX or ATX motherboard. The optimised interior space can accommodate up to 5 SSDs, a 190 mm high fan and a 369 mm graphics card.
Be Quiet! has taken great care to ensure quiet operation by installing two Pure Wings 2 140 mm fans and fitting the Pure Base 500 with insulating mats on the front, sides and side panels. There are also plenty of cable storage options to hide unwanted cables.
The Pure Base 500 offers generous dimensions for the installation of high-end graphics cards and large cooling systems up to 190 mm high. Fans or radiators up to 360 mm high can be easily installed at the front. The upper zone offers space for fans or radiators up to 240 mm.
Two pre-installed Pure Wings 2 fans with optimised blades ensure perfect airflow and constant cooling. Despite the case's compact design, the front and rear fans are 140 mm models, ensuring ultra-quiet operation. Three additional 140 mm fans can be fitted as an option.
The power supply cover perfectly covers the cables, the power supply unit and contains a double HDD rack. The double HDD cage with decoupled supports reduces vibrations and helps to maximise silence. It can also be repositioned to accommodate radiators up to 360 mm in front. Using the PSU bracket, the power supply can be easily installed from the rear.
The front, side and top panels are fitted with insulating mats, offering great stability and optimised noise attenuation capabilities. Dust filters at the front and bottom are easy to remove for cleaning.

Wow, I can hardly tell the difference when the PC is switched on or off, I bought this box for a MAO setup and I'm not disappointed with the result, really great box, lots of space and just perfect silence.
Usually I order fractal design R4 R5 R6 because they are really quiet but the prices have exploded, I wanted to test this Be Quiet because I use their processor fans and I am not disappointed, Very quiet, well arranged, well cooled, on a config i5 13600k rtx 4070 32 GO, tidying cables everything is good. I recommend it because it's excellent value for money.
Hello, yes I appreciate the speed, the operation and the delivery. Everything went very well.
However, I don't understand where to leave you a message.
A simple product but very well finished, the removable grille is a plus, discreet and functional for the person who recommended it to me and assembled this desktop PC for image processing.
Looking for a new PC after the death of my old one, I was in a bit of a hurry and at the same time, I don't buy anything at random.
Ldlc gave me good advice, and gave me several quotes as my expectations and budget changed. They tried as hard as they could to be as close as possible to online retailers.
So I ordered from them, for around 10% more (the 3-year warranty, free diagnosis in the event of a breakdown, and the fact that I could speak to professionals on the phone or in person in the shop helped me make my choice).
The parts were delivered to the shop, I asked them to assemble it (great!), I picked it up personally and installed it at home (again, following the various difficulties I encountered during installation, I was glad to have someone competent on the phone).
So thank you Ldlc, for every purchase from you for a few years now, always top notch!
PS: You should try to set up an in-house micro-electronics repair service (for the planet, for us and for our wallets, it would be good to be able to repair rather than buy new. It's not normal for a new PC to cost less than changing a chip - the world is turning upside down! )
