Characteristics

REGULAR TOP COVER

Perfect for silent air-cooled systems

The regular top cover perfectly rounds off the design of the Pure Base 500. An insulation mat attached underneath ensures a silent operation. It is the perfect choice for air-cooled systems and regular, silent PC configurations. Strong magnets make sure the top covers fits firmly.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE TOP COVER

Maximum airflow for water-cooled configurations

For all who strive for maximum performance and especially with water-cooled systems, the extremely air-permeable top cover is the right choice. It is made of light meshed fabrics, ensuring the highest airflow possible. 

TWO PREINSTALLED PURE WINGS 2

Whisper-quiet operation

Two preinstalled Pure Wings 2 fans with airflow-optimized fan blades that ensure perfect airflow and cooling. Despite the compact case design the front and rear fans are both 140mm models, resulting in very quiet operation. Up to three 140mm fans can be installed in addition.

NOISE DAMPENING

Achieving great silence and stability

The front, sides and regular top cover are equipped with insulation mats that result in great stability and improved noise dampening capabilities. The dust filters on the front and bottom are easy to remove for cleaning.

SOPHISTICATED DESIGN

Generous space for high-end hardware

The Pure Base 500 provides generous dimensions to install high-end graphics cards and large coolers of up to 190mm in height. Fans or a radiator up to 360mm can be installed easily at the front and the top area also provides space for more fans or a radiator up to 240mm.

EYE-CATCHING FEATURES

And great cable routing possibilities

Pure Base 500 offers various possibilities for installing up to 5 SSDs in total. 2 can be installed for prominent viewing through the window panel. To hide any unwanted cables, the case offers excellent cable routing options. 

FUNCTIONAL PSU SHROUD

Offering a neat interior

The PSU shroud perfectly covers the cables and PSU. It also contains a double HDD cage with decoupled mountings that reduce vibrations and help maximize the silence. The cage can also be repositioned to install a radiator of up to 360mm at the front. The power supply unit can be easily installed from behind, mounted on the PSU bracket provided.

TEMPERED GLASS WINDOW

A perfect view inside your PC

The high-quality, fully-windowed side panel offers a perfect view of the components inside your PC case. The window is made of tinted and tempered glass with black painted side bars.

“Equipped with highly functional features in a compact design, Pure Base 500 is the smooth entry into the world of silent PC buildings.”
