Thermaltake The Tower 500 SPCC / Tempered Glass ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - Black

The Tower 500 Mid Tower Chassis

The Tower 500 is a vertically designed case with three 4mm tempered glass panels for panoramic viewing, along with two pre-installed 120mm standard fans. This chassis supports up to 12" x 12" E-ATX motherboards giving you comprehensive flexibility for enhanced expansion options. It can also be paired with a separately sold LCD panel kit with a 3.9" LCD Display for maximizing the PC's visual effects.

Space is never a problem

Whether you’re a creator, enthusiast, gamer, or simply a regular user, the Tower 500 is designed for you.

Modeled after our legendary Tower 900 super chassis, the Tower 500 was created with the direction of inheriting all the significant functions while minimizing the overall footprint. On top of that, the Tower 500 allows additional support for an All-In-One liquid cooler, support for an E-ATX motherboard (max 12”x 12”), or any ATX motherboard. Users can build their PC the way they want.

Create and display your dream build

The Tower 500’s versatile interior is designed to suit the needs of both all-in-one and custom liquid cooling solutions, and it offers three 4mm tempered glass panels located at the front and sides, serving simultaneous protection while allowing the perfect showcase of your internal components.

Visually pleasing, totally interactive

The 3.9” LCD Display allows you to monitor real-time information and upload any images or GIFs to add extra flair using the TT RGB Plus 2.0 software. It also allows you to interact with the cooling components that feature the same LCD displays. The latest version includes climate mode and time mode for users to expand the usage of our LCD displays.

Powerful cooling performance for 360mm AIOs

The enclosed radiator bracket can be installed on the right side, supporting up to a 360mm All-in-One radiator or any LCS radiators under 399mm. The space is sufficient for a push-pull configuration, with a total of six fans installed on the radiator to pursue extreme performance. The right-side panel can also be flipped 180 degrees to allow direct heat extraction from the mesh and further enhance ventilation.

Say goodbye to heat congestion

The vertical design of the Tower Series products adopts a chimney effect design to direct the heat vertically. With the Tower 500’s reimagined thermal design, you can pursue extreme system performance without worries.
