An advanced panoramic case from the be quiet! brand, model of 2025 release. Despite the transparent walls, there is no RGB or ARGB lighting — four pre-installed Pure Wings 3 fans operate without lighting effects, which stands out as a deliberate choice for those who find blinking cases distracting. The dual-chamber design separates the power supply and drives from the main components, while seven expansion slots and support for vertical GPU installation provide flexibility uncommon among many competitors.

The be quiet! Light Base 500 case features a slanted side fan frame, which can be extended upwards for easy mounting and directs airflow precisely towards the graphics card. The bottom fan compartment is flush with the base, eliminating air flow gaps. The allowed cooler height of 185 mm is one of the largest in its class, allowing the use of substantial tower coolers.

Ten mounting points and three positions for liquid cooling systems, including a 360-mm radiator on top, meet the needs of serious builds. Support for boards with reversed cable connectivity is implemented by rearranging the PSU and drive cage, maintaining a completely "clean" look for the main chamber. The weight of 10.9 kg and rubberized feet indicate the sturdiness of the structure. The USB-C 10 Gbit/s port on the front panel complements two USB 3.2 Gen1 ports.

For an easy installation of fans it slides out to the top. Cable management is easier than ever before with a channel that hides your equipment elegantly. If you install additional fans in the bottom they line up perfectly with the case floor due to a lowered fan bay.           4 Preinstalled Pure Wings 3 Fans   Light Base 500 features 4 preinstalled Pure Wings 3 fans. The rear exhaust fan is a Pure Wings 3 120mm PWM the intake fans on the side are Pure Wings 3 120mm PWM fans with reversed fan blades. All fans are optimized for maximum airflow while reducing noise-generating turbulences with their specially shaped fan blades at the same time. The reversed fan blades make sure that their pretty side is visible at all times.           Spacious Design   Light Base 500 might appear compact but it comes with enough space for a 360mm radiator an ATX motherboard and graphics cards up to 400mm length. The smart design of the drive bracket features slots for 2 HDDs and 2 SSDs at the same time without impeding the room for cable management behind the motherboard tray.           Business in the front... Party in the back!   The motherboard tray fully supports backside connector designs like Asus BTF (Back to Future) MSI Project Zero and Gigabyte Project Stealth for a true and cable-free view. To enable backside connector support without giving up a drive slot the position of the PSU and drive bracket are simply swapped!           No ARGB   Do you prefer a stealthy look? If so: we’ve got you covered with the Light Base 500 a perfect blend of the classic be quiet! style with no LED lighting and modern form.
