We saw the be quiet! Pure Base 500DX at CES 2020 where we pointed out this is a tweaked version of the Pure Base 500 that delivers Addressable RGB lighting on a be quiet! case for the very first time, which surely deserves another! In addition you get a...

be quiet! upped its game in mainstream chassis toward the end of 2019 with the Pure Base 500. Priced from £70, the mid-tower frame became the German firm's most affordable enclosure to date, and ticked most of the relevant boxes for a low-cost, no-nonsen...

If you have around £100 to spend on a case right now, there's an awful lot of choice out there. Antec's P120 Crystal, Be Quiet's own Pure Base 500 and Corsair's iCUE 465X RGB are all worthy mentions. However, Be Quiet! has felt compelled to offer up somet...
