Light Base 500 LX Black ATX case

The be quiet! Light Base 500 LX Black is a mid-tower chassis built for ATX, M-ATX and Mini-ATX motherboards. Its steel and ABS frame is wrapped in tempered glass on both sides to show internal components. Four Light Wings LX 120mm PWM fans come pre-installed for immediate airflow and ARGB lighting.

Angled slide-out side fan frame

A distinctive angled frame on the side panel slides out toward the top for easy fan mounting. It directs intake air straight toward the graphics card, targeting the component that usually demands the most cooling. The frame also provides a neat triangular cutout that works as an efficient air intake path.

Radiator support up to 360mm and dual PSU positions

The interior fits radiators up to 360mm at the top and 240mm on the side, with additional 120mm and 280mm options listed. Two power-supply mounting locations allow compatibility with backside-connector motherboards. Dust filters on the bottom and side protect the 1 x 3.5" and 2 x 2.5" drive bays.

Questions about this item

How does the 500 LX handle GPU thermals inside the case?

The angled slide-out side fan frame routes intake air straight to the graphics card, and the pre-installed Light Wings LX 120 mm PWM fans push high-volume flow across the GPU.

What radiator sizes can the top and side mounts actually take?

Top supports up to 360 mm, side accepts up to 240 mm, and rear fits a 120 mm unit, all limited by the pre-installed fan positions.

What clearance do I need for the 49.3 × 38.8 × 51.5 cm footprint and 14.6 kg weight?

Plan for the full height, width and depth plus cable routing space; the steel, ABS and tempered-glass build sits firmly on a desk or floor without extra reinforcement.
