The be quiet! LIGHT BASE 500 is a Midi Tower case constructed with a steel frame, ABS plastic components, and a tempered glass side panel. It accommodates ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards, providing a foundation for various system configurations. The design prioritizes airflow and a clean aesthetic, omitting RGB illumination for a performance-focused appearance. Its internal layout is engineered for compatibility with a range of modern components.
Cooling is a primary feature, with four pre-installed Pure Wings 3 120mm PWM fans, including three reverse-blade models on the side for direct intake. The chassis supports extensive cooling expansion, with mounts for up to a 360mm radiator at the top and additional fans at the rear, side, and bottom. Integrated dust filters are included to help maintain internal cleanliness and component longevity. Provisions for cable management assist in achieving an organized build and unobstructed airflow.
For component installation, the case offers clearance for CPU coolers up to 185mm in height and power supplies up to 200mm long. Storage options include two 3.5-inch and two 2.5-inch drive bays for HDDs and SSDs. The front I/O panel is equipped with a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port and a combination audio jack for streamlined connectivity to peripherals.
