An ATX mid-tower case in Arctic White with two pre-installed 140 mm Pure Wings 2 fans, sound-damping mats, an exchangeable top cover, and support for 360 mm radiators
Edition Pure Base 500
Color White
The be quiet! Pure Base 500 White is an ATX mid-tower case designed for users who want a compact chassis with strong noise reduction. It measures 450 x 232 x 443 mm without stands and weighs 6.95 kg. The steel and plastic construction includes insulation mats on the front, sides and regular top cover. Two pre-installed Pure Wings 2 140mm fans provide quiet airflow out of the box.
An exchangeable top cover system lets you switch between a sound-damped regular cover and a high-performance mesh cover for water-cooled setups. The regular cover uses strong magnets and an insulation mat for silent air-cooled operation. The mesh version maximises airflow for radiators up to 360 mm. Inside, you can install up to five 2.5 inch SSDs, with two positions prominently behind the window panel, plus two internal 3.5 inch bays on a decoupled double cage.
Before ordering, verify that your graphics card does not exceed 369 mm in length and that your CPU cooler is no taller than 190 mm. The bottom-mounted power supply bay accepts units up to 258 mm deep and is accessible from the rear for easier installation. Front I/O provides USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and audio ports. The case offers seven expansion slots and includes dust filters, but has no external 5.25 inch or 3.5 inch drive bays.

The two pre-installed Pure Wings 2 140mm fans are standard 140mm units and can be swapped for any compatible 140mm fan if they wear out or if you prefer different performance characteristics.
The maximum GPU length supported is 369mm, so any graphics card longer than that will not fit regardless of other available space.
With the regular top cover and its insulation mat fitted, airflow is restricted compared to the high-performance cover, so sustained thermal loads rely on the two 140mm intake fans and any additional fans you install.
