Review on Computer case be quiet! Pure Base 500 black by Stanisaw Nader ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I didn't expect the quality to be so high.

The first box in a long time that seems to contain a high-quality item. For instance, NZXT and Phanteks didn't give off that vibe. Its solidity is comparable to Chieftec from ten to fifteen years ago. Pros: The workmanship is good; the metal is rather thick, meticulously processed, superbly painted, and of strong structure; nothing bends or plays or staggers. At 900 rpm, the integrated good 140mm fans are running quietly. Unlike to many contemporary cases, the airflow from the 3.5" HDD basket is typical without affecting anything else. There are simply the necessary connections on the front panel: power, USB 3.0, a power led, and audio. Very comfortable temperatures for a closed-front drawer. Stunning original gray. From the inside, soundproofing is applied to the side and front panels. Both ventilation holes in the PSU enclosure and ventilation through the floor are present. No, however the video card also has a second source of air. Both a conventional, non-modular PSU and a modular one and I became good friends. Many drawbacks The "under-ATX" format, which is similar to ATX in height but shorter than ATX in width, is not supported. Two closely spaced bolt holes can be found in the center of such boards, one in the middle like everyone else, and one slightly to the right. Also, avoid screwing the rack beneath this "slightly to the right." Nonetheless, the board typically rests on 6 bolts in theory. One of my noisy hard drives continued to rumble and vibrate the case despite the competent implementation of mounting the HDD to the basket (via rubber washers, on bolts). They shouldn't, in theory. It is nevertheless noisy, despite the name and soundproofing paste.
