be quiet! Pure Base 500DX ATX Midi Tower PC case | ARGB | 3 Pre-Installed Pure Wings 2 Fans | Tempered Glass Window | White | BGW38

Let me start off by saying that this case is super nice and its namesake holds up. It is quiet and I am very impressed even though I have very limited experience building a pc in general. But this is a great starting point case for amateur or experienced builders. The quality of the case is very high and sets the bar pretty high for other cases in the price range to live up to. Everything I installed went in with ease except my ability to manage all the power supply cables once everything was connected but I managed to fit everything. If you are not installing a HDD in the tray then you could just remove it and have more room to stuff cables in. Thats the only thing I really struggled with because I used green cable extensions. I'm not going to knock the rating of the case for that though. My components had no trouble fitting in this case. I didn't even have to move any standoffs for my B550 motherboard. There are plenty of wire routing cutouts at the top and bottom. Also plenty of tie down spots on the back for cable management. The thumb screws for the case were thought out nicely. A very nice feature is the power supply faceplate can be removed and attached to power supply for easy installation through the back. Attach it to power supply with screws the slide in through the back then tighten the thumbs screws to the case. Simple and easy. There are 3 stock 140mm fans in the case and are very good fans if you don't want RGB. I chose to go the RGB route and purchased 6 RGB 120mm fans instead. You can fit a 240mm AIO at the top or front of case and a 360mm AIO only on the front of case. I chose a 360mm front installation. Speaking of RGB, the stock double line strip on the front and the strip at the top inside of case are very nice. You can choose a lot of different colors and RGB modes by pressing the button at the front top of case. Or if you hold down the button, it will hand over the RGB to the motherboard software if you everything to sync up. Also, if you choose an RGB power supply, you can see it through the shroud at the bottom of case (see picture). I was concerned at first that I would not be able to see my RGB fans through the mesh front but was elated to see that my worries were for not once turned on (see picture). I have acrylic RGB covers for my SATA hard drives which you can see to right of motherboard. The location is nice to show off the hard drives if you want. But there are options to not. There is also 3 removeable dust filters included. 1 magnetic at the top. 1 kinda hinged on the front. 1 at the bottom that slides out for easy cleaning. The glow that reflects off the case is beautiful ambience...very satisfied once light are off. In summary..I know I rambled a lot but this case deserves it. Great case and well thought out for anyone looking to buy a starter mid case. I absolutely have no regrets buying this. Thanks for reading and enjoy if you purchase!!!

This case is amazing!!! Looks are incredible and the lights are a great touch. Tons of customization possible with lots of room. Cable management solutions are built in and since it was so roomy assembling my PC was easy. Plus for the fanthat came with the case Loads of functions and mounting options. Worth every penny!

Ok first of all i'v heard alot of good things about be quite! but dang this case is amazing. It has so many places to route cables, the build quality is amazing for the price. Comes with a glass side panel which is held in by thumb screws which is kind of a bummer but that's not even a complaint. It just takes a little more effort to get into when you need to and if you're like me and don't plan on really upgrading anything anytime soon I don't really see it as a downside. The case has GREAT airflow and man is this thing silent. It comes with 3 pre-installed budget be quite fans which is sick, they are also fairly quite so I don't think that's a downside plus I picked up 2 extra fans of the same type to all and all tie this thing together. The case comes with some sound dampening foam on the back panel. has a lot of dust filters including on the bottom and top which are removable for cleaning. The front panel has 2 awesome strips down the front which look amazing, the leds are fairly bright so if you don't like that then I guess that might be a downside but if you are buying a case with led's why would you not want to use the led's... anyways the case also comes with an led light strip pre-installed on the top of the case on the inside toward the front. It's already pre-hooked up to the front led panel's so when you change the lights via the botton on the case it all changes together. if you have a 3pin rgb header on your motherboard you can also hook up the lights to that and control them via whatever software your motherboard uses for lights. all and all an amazing case and is so much better then the last case I purchased. hope this review helped someone!

Never thought I would change my case to a RGB case. I used to build computers back when Antec was making the best cases. When the 900 tower was king. I eventually moved to a BeQuiet 600 with the metal door. That case was really quiet but I had a top mounted GPU radiator and the 600 had to be opened up top sort of remove much of the noise reduction. The case is still great for noise reduction but I wanted something with more airflow if I was going to airflow and temperature route anyway. I saw this on sale and it had such a clean implementation of RGB. I have no RGB fans. I still think they look tacky. The case itself illuminates everything inside. I paired everything inside with the existing Silent wings fans with some Noctua fans for the chassis and the radiator. It's the same noise level idle or under load. But I set my fans that way. The only other RGB I have is the motherboard itself and GPU which I've never actually seen in action. Having it all synced looks nice to be honest. I enjoy seeing it all working. The modular way BeQuiet has the case is great. It's easy to disassemble. The ONLY draw back is the from ports. AKA the top ports. There is a USB C port and the front ports. My motherboard is a old B450M mATX and only has one connection to that front panel. I've had to invest in a separate USB3.0 adapter and a spliter. Now all top ports are working. Outside of the BeQuiet cases seem to be really quality. The top even has a mesh "filter" so you can remove it to clean. It's magnetic.

First off I've built literally hundreds of machines. I was a treat to build in this case and the ease of installation.. The fit & finish is about 90% perfect... the options are 100%. On this build I came from a Thermaltake Tower 900.. Its a massive case. This mid tower was able to accommodate two AIO pumps/radiators and clear airflow through the case and room to spare . The RGB is tasteful and you dont even need mobo software to drive it if you dont want it... There is a controller built into the case. One button operation. There is one A type USB and one C type Port on the top front. It looks classy.

Bought this case for a new build and I love it. I had never heard of Be Quiet until I saw this case, and I'm glad I took on a chance on a new brand. The selling point for me was definitely the lighting in the front panel & along the top of the case -- it's a nice touch, but I have been pleasantly surprised by a few other things. + The built in lighting options are solid, but I've enjoyed linking it up to rgb software I run for other applications to customize it. + The included fans are incredibly quiet and the airflow they produce is solid, but I did swap mine out for aesthetics. + There are several anchor points along the backside and bottom of the case that make cable management a breeze. I don't really have any "deal breakers" per se, but the headspace is a little tight so it was slightly annoying to install the mobo and some other components without removing the top and back fans for more hand manuverability. I still feel uncomfortable taking off the front panel because the amount of force I need feels like I'm going to break it; hopefully this is like replacing batteries in a new Firestick remote and gets easier over time. And as someone else said, the manual read like Ikea instructions lol.

For the price, this is a great mid tower case. It comes with 3 included 140mm fans (non PWM) which are actually decent for stock fans. Also included is a preinstalled RGB strip on the inside (on the top near the glass side panel) of the case which you can control either with the front panel RGB button or through software. All intakes are filtered, options for mounting a multitude of SSDs/HDDs, plenty of room for cable management under both the PSU shroud and between the back side panel and you have the option to run ALL 140mm fans, which is great. The aesthetics are top notch as well. It has a very clean and simple design and the implementation of the included RGB is tasteful, unlike many cases. It was a pleasure to build in and has great features for this price point, highly recommend!

I am so happy I canceled another case and got this one ! Not only has it an amazing look, I love the white version.. I am not so much into Light Effects but this one has them nice build in inside and in the front, and has an external button to change them or turn them off. Besides the amazing look and quality you will get very quiet fans I can barely hear the computer to be on ! And I did watch benchmarks it gets the computer cool. What was important for me also is that the front has filter, that will help to protect your computer from dust and easy to clean it. One thing I am missing but maybe its a way to hook it up. I like to see the Hardrive / SSD when it reads. Wish the power button would blink. Maybe an option to set it up?

الكيس ممتاز من كل النواحي خصوصا في دخول الهواء للكيس ممتاز جدا للتبريد و لم اواجه اي مشاكل من ناحية الترتيب

Dude mucho en que caja coger. Quería si o si una blanca. Es super espaciosa y los ventiladores que lleva de serie silenciosos. Muy satisfecho con la compra

After researching to see which had the better airflow, it was between this and the LianLi 215. Both great cases. Easy to assemble in, plenty of space! Someone complained that there weren't any rubber gromits but I don't think that was an issue for me. The main disadvantage was the weight, I didn't expect the tempered glass to be that heavy but lesson learned. I managed to take the weight off a bit by getting rid of some trays and some other metallic stuff. Maybe shedded a kg from it so that's better than nothing. The lights are pretty cool too but the biggest difficulty was taking the front panel off, that used quite a lot of strength. And the whole thing is pretty difficult to carry around but I suppose it's expected for a mid-tower.

A very pleasing and well ventilated case, very easy to wire manage too. Highly recommend it for its price, it comes with 3 fans and its super quiet indeed
