Characteristics

LOOKING GOOD!

Let it shine

Pure Base 501 DX White features ARGB LEDs on the case’s front and inside the case. That makes the PC case hit the sweet spot between ARGB illumination and elegant understatement the Pure Base 501 case series is known for. The front has been designed from scratch to match the illumination and make a statement in your room.

PERFECT CASE FAN

Fan blades optimized for high airflow

With optimization for maximum airflow, Pure Wings 3 140mm PWM White is the perfect choice for Pure Base 501 DX White. Its 7 airflow-optimized fan blades not only reduce noise-generating turbulences but also ensure Pure Wings 3 140mm PWM White provides the performance that is needed for demanding configurations.

MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE

Generous space for high-end hardware

Despite its compact dimensions, Pure Base 501 DX White offers enough space for high-end graphics cards and large coolers. Triple fans or a radiator up to 360mm can be installed easily at the front, while the top area provides space for up to 2 fans or a radiator up to 240mm.

WAY UP!

With rotatable PCIe slots

Why not try something else with your GPU? The PCIe slots of the Pure Base 501 DX White can be rotated 90° for an upright installation of wide high-end graphics cards. The spacing is perfect for the optional be quiet! Riser Cable, whose foam base provides excellent anti-sag support for graphics cards in vertical orientation.

INVENTORY MANAGEMENT

With smart cable routing options

As a compact PC case, Pure Base 501 DX White optimally uses the offered space. Thanks to cleverly integrated cable routing options, it makes cable management a breeze.

CONNECT WITH ME

State-of-the-art technology for your system

A USB 3.2 Gen. 2 Type C connector and 2 Type A ports on the front I/O port for fast and easy connectivity. A controller button for the front ARGB LEDs cycles through the different colors and modes or can be set to sync the effects with a motherboard ARGB header.

SHOW ME WHAT YOU’VE GOT

A perfect view inside your PC

The high-quality, fully-windowed side panel offers a perfect view of the components inside your Pure Base 501 DX White. The window is made of tinted and tempered glass with white painted side bars .

"PC cases like Pure Base 501 DX are the very reason why I applied for a job at be quiet! in the first place. There is simply no other manufacturer that gets the idea of what a PC case should be there for better: reliable, visually appealing, and thoroughly well-designed."
