Minimalist Low-Volume PC Cases

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

be quiet!'s Pure Base 501 is Designed for Quiet Minimalism

— August 21, 2024 — Tech
The Pure Base 501, introduced by be quiet! at Gamescom 2024, is a new addition to their lineup of PC cases. This model builds on the foundation of the previous Pure Base 500 series, offering a compact form factor suitable for both gaming and office PCs. The case supports ATX, micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards, and includes two Pure Wings 3 140 mm PWM fans for cooling. Additionally, it accommodates water cooling radiators up to 360 mm and offers an optional vertical graphics card installation. The Pure Base 501 is designed with a decoupled double HDD cage for versatile storage options and features a clever cable routing design to maintain a tidy interior.

The Pure Base 501 is available in several versions to cater to different user preferences. For those prioritizing silence, there is a black version with a closed front and steel side panel. For users seeking maximum airflow, versions with a mesh front and optional window side panels are available in both black and white. The case is scheduled for release in November 2024 and comes with a three-year manufacturer’s warranty. This new series aims to provide a flexible and practical solution for users who appreciate a traditional design without ARGB features.
