be quiet! has unveiled two new additions to its Light Base series, which are the Light Base 500 LX and Light Base 500, designed to cater to different PC building styles.
First, the Light Base 500 LX stands out with its four pre-installed Light Wings LX 120mm PWM fans, including three reverse-blade fans on the side for optimized intake and one at the rear for exhaust. Its angled slide-out fan frame provides easy access for installation, while the spacious interior supports ATX motherboards, 360mm radiators, and GPUs up to 400mm long.
The case also includes mounts for one HDD and two SSDs, an ARGB controller with a hub for up to six devices, and dust filters at the side and bottom for better protection. Compatibility with backside connector motherboards like ASUS BTF and MSI Project Zero, along with dual PSU mounting options, ensures a flexible and clutter-free setup.
Meanwhile, the Light Base 500 delivers the same structural design without RGB elements, focusing on subtlety and practicality. It comes with four Pure Wings 3 120mm PWM fans and supports up to two HDDs and two SSDs, making it an ideal pick for builders who prefer a quieter, distraction-free setup.
