Gigabyte Aorus C500 Glass: gaming case with improved airflow

The new Aorus C500 glass is a larger ATX case for motherboards up to the E-ATX standard. The enclosure provides enough space for high-end appliances and also allows the installation of larger water coolers.

The term “glass” refers to the large side window made of toughened glass and the sprayed facade for good ventilation. GIGABYTE has installed four fans with ARGB lighting and PWM control as well as a similar control hub in its previous Aorus C500 Glass works. Additional fans or a 420 mm water-cooling radiator can be installed at the top of the case, which also consists of an air-permeable mesh grille.

Graphics cards are installed vertically and up to two graphics cards of six slot heights can be installed in this way. The side panel with a large tempered glass protection panel can be removed without tools. In addition to the mandatory audio connections, there are also two USB Type-A ports and a USB Type-C port on the top of the case.

Aorus C500 glass lighting is compatible with RGB Fusion 2.0 software. In addition to the four pre-installed fans, the lettering “Aorus” on the side can also be illuminated according to your own wishes and synchronized with the rest of the lighting using the built-in control hub. The front panel can be detached as needed and also has two hinges for easy access.

Gigabyte has not yet provided any information on pricing for the 250 x 548 x 482mm (W x H x D) Aorus C500 glass.
