be quiet! Pure Base 500 ATX Case with Window, Gray

Todela hyvä kotelo hyvillä ominaisuuksilla. Tilaa miditorniksi on tehdä ja monet asiat on toteutettu järkevästi tässä kopassa. En löydä oikein mitään heikkouksia tästä. +++

I assembled an air-cooled i5 system and an RTX 3070 in this case. It has been in operation for half a year, and it seems to me that this is a sample of a case that is normal in all basic parameters within the specified context. I think that this will most likely also be true for a more productive system, given the size and the possibility of installing additional fans for intake, and the possibility of liquid cooling.

The case is stable, optimal in weight, no problems with paint removal or the like, USB connectors, sound connectors and the off button work well. Nothing backlash, does not bend. The built-in fans are quiet. Normal dust protection.

Convenient ergonomics for disk placement, for which there are several seats for ssd, as well as a metal basket in which you can install several ssd or hdd.

Of the minuses, if it is a minus at all, is the lack of a front grille for air intake, instead of which small grilles are made in the corners.

I think that at the moment this is one of the best cases in its class.

It's simple and seems like it's just an ordinary case without any bells and whistles, but it's pretty much perfectly designed. It's small enough and yet it has lot of room inside. It can fit the biggest GPUs and it can fit the taller CPU coolers. It has plenty of room for water cooling and the cable management has been very well designed. Very easy to assemble and disassemble and cleaning the dust from this case is a breeze. Build quality is good for the price and the included fans are whisper quiet. No rainbow unicorn vomit, just pure black and it looks great! 10/10 for budget builds. Would buy again!

Good case, but one of the drawbacks is that the front panel lacks direct airflow, only having small side vents that make it difficult for air to pass through. The included fans are relatively quiet (as long as they're not running at full power). I wouldn't recommend this case if you have powerful hardware (Intel i9 and 4080-4090) because the airflow inside the case won't be very good. On the plus side, there are plenty of cable management options and sufficiently small dust filters to catch cat hair and prevent it from clogging the case.
