mrpetrov Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Hi guys, here are two pics of my new system in the 500D RGB. The gpu isn't there as I'm waiting hopefully for the 11 series announcement shortly before deciding what to buy. I still have to work on cleaning up the cables behind the PSU. Note, I am waiting for a replacement glass door hinge as it snapped off when I reattached the doors (it was loose and jiggly to begin with). https://i.imgur.com/MVdbjRc.jpg https://i.imgur.com/O6rgsyb.jpg Edited August 5, 2018 by Technobeard pics too big; changed to links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonheart Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Hello guys, I just bought the 500d but I have 3 HDD, is there any way to add more than two HDD in the case ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zotty Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 put the 3rd inside the PSU shroud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonheart Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) I have a little bit screwed up my screw.. Des it risk something ? And what is this in the screw hole ? Thanks Edited November 6, 2018 by Demonheart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyR Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 The first image, I would blow away the metal dust with an aircan or something like that, but it will probably not harm anything. The screw hole in the second image is a guiding hole, it is to help you guide the motherboard in place, no screw is needed for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikthas Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Hi everyone, I have a few questions for those of you who have bought the 500D SE., as I'm considering buying one myself. 1) I've noticed these gaps on the 500D chassis in the official product video, Amazon's product page, as well as some Youtube videos, but I've also seen at least one review on YouTube of a 500D SE that doesn't have them. I would link an example, but I'm not sure if I'd be insta-banned / post removed because of possible advertising. Does your case have this? 2) Does the front glass panel come off? If not, how do you clean it? 3) Probably off-topic, does your Commander Pro that comes with the case somehow store your fan profiles, so that they keep working as you left them, in case you turn iCue off / boot into Linux / whatever? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockster2 Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 I just got mine a week ago. 1. Mine does have the unsightly slot holes. I was really hoping it didn't. And they ARE visible through the glass panels. 2. Not sure, I haven't had to clean it yet. But with the side panel open there is a fair bit of space. 3. I run static speeds, I prefer to adjust them myself, (I really miss being able to right click the Link icon in the sys tray and select a profile). I'm having a number of issues with iCrap, I don't trust it to do anything correctly right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevBiker Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 This!! noted.. suggested.. we can only hope ;) I think that there's one challenge here - when you have A LOT of profiles, this can get pretty burdensome. It needs to be a selectable option ... include this profile on the system tray, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockster2 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 That doesn't sound very encouraging. :S It's a beautiful case, but for the cost it seems like it was only 90% finished. I'm not sure I'm going to keep it for my main system. I'm strongly considering selling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevBiker Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 wasn't an issue in LINK.. worked well :)... Yeah ... but you and I both know people with over 50 profiles. That would be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max15King Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I just got mine and it doesn't have those holes :) What is the manufacturing date of your case?

Nikthas Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Thank you for checking, both of you. I ordered my 500D SE and it should be in my hands in a week or so. We'll see if it has the cuts or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
