Fractal Design Core 500 Black: Compact Mini ITX Tower Case

The Fractal Design Core 500 Black (EAN: 7350041082644, UPC: 817301012645) is a compact Mini ITX tower case designed for high-performance small form factor (SFF) builds, balancing versatility and efficiency. Measuring 250mm x 203mm x 367mm (19.5 liters) and weighing 4.4 kg, it features a steel body with a plastic front panel sporting a brushed aluminum finish. It supports Mini ITX and Mini DTX motherboards (note: 90-degree SATA ports may conflict), GPUs up to 310mm (170mm with PSUs >170mm), CPU coolers up to 170mm, and ATX PSUs up to 170mm (non-modular) or 160mm (modular). Storage includes 3x 3.5″ HDDs, 3x 2.5″ SSDs, and a removable 5.25″ bay for optical drives. One pre-installed Fractal Design Silent Series R3 140mm fan (rear, 1000 RPM, 41.8 CFM, 21.5 dBA) provides quiet cooling, with support for up to 3 fans (1x 120/140mm rear, 2x 120/140mm top). Radiator support includes 280/240/140/120mm (top, max 100mm thickness, 240/280mm requires ODD bay removal, 280mm max length 325mm) and 120mm (rear, if no 3.5″ HDD). Note that AIOs with pumps on the radiator are not supported. The front I/O offers 2x USB 3.0, audio in/out, power button with white LED, HDD activity LED, and reset button. Magnetic dust filters (side, top, PSU) and Velcro straps aid maintenance and cable management, though space behind the motherboard tray is limited. Users praise its compact size, flexible storage, and value (~$60–$70), but note challenges with cable management and motherboard SATA conflicts. Backed by a 2-year warranty, the Core 500 is ideal for SFF enthusiasts, competing with cases like the NZXT H200.
