This PC Build Hits Different... | Cooler Master Qube 500 Gaming PC Build | No RGB, RTX 4070 Ti

#coolermaster #pcbuild #asuspcdiy - We're all used to building into a PC case, but what happens when the case it's self becomes part of the PC build process? Let's get stuck in with the Cooler Master Qube 500...

Timecodes, though I don't recommend skipping for visual narrative reasons!

The Qube 500 hits different with a really intuitive assembly process which provides a complete hands on experience with building the PC at the same time as assembling the hardware. This isn't something I've really had hands on with before and I have to admit, I really enjoyed it.

For a relatively compact case (by todays standard) it's a bit of a wolf in sheeps clothing. You can fit up to an E-ATX motherboard inside which totally blows my mind. Contrary to initial impressions, with the correct fan configuration, the Qube 500 has adequate airflow with minimal noise. Utilising an air cooled setup for this build certainly performed as expected and no complaints here!

If you noticed what appears to be lots of micro-dust on the PC case during the cinematic, this was actually a paint defect. Keep in mind my chassis was a sample and retail models wouldn't ship this way :)

With that noted, I love the Cooler Master Qube 500. The design is minimalist, but brings a lot of creative options depending on the setup you want to achieve. For a non-RGB air cooled setup, there's a lot enjoy with this one for sure!

A hat tilt to Cooler Master for thinking up ECO friendly ways to ship cases in a smaller size, whilst also bringing more PC DIY to the community which is never going to be a miss!
