Was able to get this for 99€. No regrets.
Ended up setting up my 120mm AiO with push+pull in the back and switching the preinstalled 140mm Light Wings fan to the top. Good way to suck out the hot air that my Vega 56 produces.
Ryzen 3800X at 4,3GHz and 1.28V doesn't exceed 75°C under 100% load.
As much as I like my Asus TUF x570-Plus…no USB-c…Feels like a case like this would be good, but I can't fully utilize it.
Just for a small comment, I thought JayzTwoCents didn't like Corsair's iCue Commander Pro but somewhat compliments the BeQuiet Pure Base 500 FX pwm and rgb header. His first complaint about Corsair iCue is that the fans are powered by a SATA plug. This case for the pwm and rgb header is powered by a SATA plug too. Now, it's you have to have a fan powered by iCue for it to work in the Commander Pro or XT. Well, you get better RGB settings with iCue than your normal standard RGB fans.
Tech Jesus covered how good that sound deadening is. @ 2:19
I used the 500DX for my first build in along time and i enjoy it alot. thanks to guys like you that make video's on building computers I was able to build mine. last time i built a computer was 98 if that tells you anything. Thanks guys.
Can u front mount a pure loop 2 fx doing push pull with the case & rad fans? If so how long of a gpu could u still use?
Still not available in white 🙄🥺
GREAT review. I bought this case and have most components, just waiting for i9-13900KF and mobo and ram, and now I know how I'll be setting up cooling. Great info.
I am a happy owner of 500 DX. For the price is excellent case!
Never been a fan of side panel deadening. I'm not a science major but I figure we used to sound deaden because the thin aluminum in old antec cases used to vibrate, esp with old school fans but you can just use heavier metal and the deadening isn't needed. Maybe the sound deadening is cheaper than using thicker metal or more weight efficient but I'd figure it also traps in heat more too. I guess it could be kinda nice to have something cushioned against the wires/connectors instead of smashing them in with a metal panel. Could slightly reduce noise by keeping things snug too like a thermal pad. Meh. /rant
Can you do more reviews and recommendations for itx build focussed cases, which are somewhat future proof of nvidia's bus sized 40 and future generation cards (not enthusiast range, but xx70 or radeon x700 range compatible. Cheers!
i want to make my pc more quiet, its quite old, needs new fans and new power suply i think. , do i get this case or the Cooler Master Silencio S600 :X for a quiet system?
Would I be able to fit a NZXT kraken x63 in the top? Can't do that with my current Define R6 because the ram sticks get in the way.
Is fx rgb? I bought one thinking it's a second overhall from the previous pure base 500's..
Can you fit a noctua nh d15 in there
I had to order this was on sale for 94 USD with shipping in Norway, thats almost cost of fans alone
Shag carpet is only in in the west coast. I am, and always have been, pro wood floors
Super helpful. Just found this video before ordering 500 DX 🙂 Now for sure will order 500 FX
What if i have a 4 pin rgb header only?
Was looking at that the other day, looks noice, correction I saw the DX version any thoughts on that ? cheers
Is there a web page where i could check parts i want to buy and test it how it would look in certain case ?
its the same with more rgb. hahaha. Altought, its been a year since i had the dx and i can say that with a 10850k and a noctua dh15 this case has been the best bang for the buck ive purchased in my entire life. the airflow is phenomenal and the acoustics my god! you cant even tell its on! For me, who owns a recording studio is a plus.
What a great case. Love it
Thanks for this review. I just re-spec'd my build sheet, replacing a Fractal case with this one. Your comments re the included fans, had 10 ton to do with that decision.
Anyone know what Jay uses for his RGB lights in his backdrop?
More cases need more usb on front. Even for wireless it’s way better to have direct view of dongle. So frustrating when there’s only one or 2. should be 4. No need for anything other than usb 3.0 or whatever. Even 2… damn you case people!
I was able to jam a classified in my dark base 700. The 30 pin was channeled in the hdd slot under the cover and is basically invisible .
Hey can someone give me a little guidance? I got this Be Queit! Pure Base 500 FX case. I am going to be using a 5900x with a Artic Freezer II 240 ARGB AIO top Mounted as exhaust, pull config (I believe is stock config). Keeping stock fan config in case. SHOULD I MOUNT MY MSI MPG A1000G PSU FAN UP OR DOWN. I am probably going to get a 6900XT or 7900XT. Im Using a Mirco ATX MSI MAG B550M MORTAR motherboard. 4x8gb Single Rank Corsair VENGEANCE RGB PRO SL DDR4 DRAM 3600MHz C16 (2 of these kits CMH16GX4M2Z3600C16) and not that it matters but a 1tb Crucial P3 PCIE 4.0 NVME M.2 SSD.
5080
only 2 USB ports, pathetic. especially at this price point. what is up with case manufacturers nowadays going with less USB ports, when people rely on USB ports more and more?
Don't think my board even has a JST RGB header as far as i know, my board is Gigabyte B460M_DS3H motherboard, was cheap board at the time in 2020 when i did my system refresh at the time , but someday i'll have a board upgrade again with a true ARGB header
man, did i just save a whole bunch of moolah coz of this case….goodbye NZXT case and fans…
If the front panel was a hinged/magnet combo I would consider it. How many pulls before it breaks?
I remember the psu used to be at the top now i love this case i do think two usb3 and the 3.1 would be nice also the hub in the back with all those wires could hinder mapping out your cables and if you wanted to change your cpu cooler you may have issues ,,,would you think that ,at least for me i want a case i can completely take apart to paint without rivets but love your content
lancool 216 or pure base 500fx
I personally really don't warm up with the design of the front though…
How to sync all the fans with motherboard rgb? Everyone said its possible but how? The manual is crap and explain nothing
Hi Jay, I have the exact issue you referenced at ~3:55 with my mobo not having the 3 pin argb connector, but rather the 4pin. Can you provide more details to the JST adapter you referenced? I looked around on amzn etc a little bit but didn't really find something that I was confident was the correct adapter.
guys does anyone know in terms of thermals and noise lvls ? i see dx results every where gaming nexus etc. but this case have different fans set up 4 instead oif 3 but 120 oposing to 140 does anyone have clue in terms of temps and decibels whats a difference ? thaks guys
Thank You, well done
360 mm aio on front easy mont man
My Mobo has a 4 pin rgb header. The manual calls it a jled. I've been looking for a adapter for it but haven't had any luck. I have the msi gaming m7 mobo. Do you know if there is an adapter for this header?
Hi Jay!
Looking for your (or anyone’s really) take on my problem/solution situation:
So I wanna get some argb fans and be able to control them through software. Only I don’t have argb port on my motherboard.
I tried looking for an adapter from 3pin-argb to usb header but it doesn’t exist (not to buy anyway). Only thing is 3pin-argb to usb external port, but that would require me to have the cable go out of the case.
The thing I came up with, with the stuff I did manage to find online- is to get that 3pin-argb to USB adapter(external) and then use another adapter from it, of an external female usb to internal female usb that can connect to the motherboard header.
So.. Yup? Nope?
Hello everybody,
I've been trying to get the Lian Li LANCOOL 216 for a while now but it's just not available here. Do you reckon this case would be a good alternative or should I wait and keep trying to get the Lian Li?
