Smart usability features and whisper-quiet operation enable you to realize almost any system configuration you desire for your ATX or micro ATX PC. It is the perfect base for your system.

Pure Base 500 is the second chassis in the Pure Base product range and, as indicated by the number “500”, is smaller than Pure Base 600. The case is positioned in the competitive price range from 70-85 EUR/USD, but sets itself apart from the competition with unique design choices such as a changeable top cover, an SSD mounting panel, and two preinstalled 140mm fans.
