Do you agree with me? 🤔 Would you consider this to be the overall best version of the Pure Base case out there? 😃 In your opinion, what would in general further enhance the case? 😅
I have a Seasonic PSU bought in 2018 which has a thick ATX power cable and I find the opening for this cable is too tight (I have the Purebase 500 DX). I had to remove the SSD bracked to route that cable through it but because of that I don't have where to put one of the 3 SSDs so it's just hanging by the cables.
My Antec Edge PSU is 7 years old so i just bought a Corsiar RM650X 2018 and would like to buy this case. But i doubt that the corsair’s cables would fit there :/
It looks like a good case, but I wish the case was just a couple of inches taller. I don't like how there is not enough space above the motherboard and the rear exhaust fan if partially covered by the top aio fans.
Thanks for pointing out the wiring error in the fan control. I'd have been scratching my head without your help. I have this case, which seems terrific, and my 900 Dark Base V2, which I hate, but at least it has 2 5.25" bays, which I needed. I just wish the 500 series had at least one model with an exterior bay. MORE THOUGHTS: Be Quiet has chosen to not document the fan hub. I know engineers (and management) would rather spend their time developing new stuff, but good documentation is appreciated by some of us. I haven't built a computer in 8 years so this aspect of a case is new to me and I don't want to have to work this out when the manufacturer could have save me this grief. The issue with their wiring error is not documented either.
Just bought Pure Base 500DX recently... White version. I still can't decide which one I like more white or black. With this FX one , it seems to me ARGB fans and fan hub are the only differences. Dope Case!
Hey, nice video. So to connect the hub you just plug it into any SysFan 4 pin on the board and then connect your cpu cooler to cpu fan as usual? Or plug cpu fans into hub since there are 2 spots free, and then connect hub fan-1 to cpufan pin on mobo?
I have this case. Over all I like it, but I do wish it had rubber grommets. I am still having some over heating issues so I need to check that fan wire you mentioned as being incorrect. That may not be my issue, but it certainly needs to be investigated.
@@Larry_Owlmann no they are not :) dx have 3x140 fans fx have 1x140 3x120 and it can end up being less quiet since those are smaller fans and more of them but acording to testings i looked up it perform pretty much same so im not sure didnt see both tasted by same person or chanel dx was tasted on gaming nexus wich have great testing other was by some random guy but results seem same but i dont have as much trust in that guy as in gamer nexus

@@lucianp87 That's a very valid concern.

best video about this case on youtube.. also just ordered it. this case looks amazing and classy

Best one I've seen about this case

500Fx has imo, +25 year building and modding, bought for 125 euro, very good airflow, that is with an air cooler, not aio. Great case imo.
ps. also have a build in the BeQuiet! Dark Base 900 pro v 2.0...
I love the rgb and its probably even better irl. Plus thers max airflow and it can take a 4090 and a 360 cpu aio whats not to like.

What is the name of the motherboard
Can those fans be controlled with software like OpenRgb?
I use signalrgb to control the rgb of the included fans and rgb of the case and strip.
Works perfectly.
What's the difference between the 500dx? Just the rgb fans?
Yes, the fans and the included hub. Other than that the cases are identical as far as I can tell.
