Mid-Tower PC Case

Durable Build with Quality Materials:

The CMP 500 PC case combines durability with affordability, making it an excellent choice for gamers, creators, and PC enthusiasts who want a reliable foundation for their builds. Constructed with high-quality steel and reinforced with plastic front panels, this case ensures long-lasting performance without compromising on weight or design. Its black finish gives it a professional and modern look, fitting seamlessly into any workspace or gaming setup. Unlike budget cases that feel flimsy, the CMP 500 balances strength and accessibility, ensuring your components stay protected over time.

Optimized Cooling and Radiator Support:

Cooling is at the heart of any successful PC build, and the CMP 500 does not disappoint. It offers flexible radiator support, including 120mm at the rear, 240mm at the top, and 120mm, 140mm, or 240mm options at the front. This wide range of compatibility ensures that users can choose the right cooling solution, whether they prefer traditional air cooling or more advanced liquid cooling systems. For airflow, the case supports dual 120mm or 140mm fans at the front, dual 120mm fans at the top, and includes a pre-installed 120mm rear fan. With strategically placed dust filters at the front and bottom, the CMP 500 keeps your system clean and dust-free, ensuring longer life for your components and reduced maintenance.

Spacious Interior and Excellent Clearance:

Despite its compact dimensions of 426 x 508 x 215mm, the CMP 500 offers generous interior space for powerful setups. It supports ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards, giving builders the flexibility to choose their preferred platform. With 7 expansion slots, the case can handle multiple GPUs or expansion cards with ease. Clearance is another strength: the CMP 500 provides up to 426mm GPU clearance, 180mm PSU clearance, and 172mm CPU cooler clearance. This means you can install large graphics cards, high-performance power supplies, and tower-style coolers without compatibility issues.

Flexible Drive Bays and Storage Options:

Storage is never a concern with the CMP 500 thanks to its versatile drive bay design. It comes with two 2.5" drive bays located in the HDD tray and two additional 2.5" bays in the ODD cage. For larger drives, it features two 3.5" tool-free bays plus one additional 3.5" bay in the ODD cage. On top of that, the case supports a 5.25" optical drive bay, making it one of the few modern cases to still include support for ODDs, which is perfect for users who rely on discs for media, software, or backups. This flexibility ensures you can expand your storage setup according to your specific needs, whether it’s high-speed SSDs, large-capacity HDDs, or both.

User-Friendly Design and Easy Cable Management:

Building in the CMP 500 is straightforward thanks to its tool-free drive bays and thoughtful design. Cable management is made easier with 24–31mm of routing space behind the motherboard tray, allowing for clean and clutter-free builds. This ensures not only better airflow but also a professional appearance inside the case. The inclusion of a side window panel lets you proudly display your components and RGB lighting, making the CMP 500 a great choice for gamers who value aesthetics as much as performance.

Connectivity Options:

The CMP 500 is equipped with a practical front I/O panel that includes 1x USB 3.0, 1x USB 2.0, and audio in/out ports supporting HD audio. These ports are conveniently placed at the front for easy access, making it simple to connect peripherals, external drives, or headsets without reaching around to the back of the system. While it doesn’t overload with excessive ports, the combination of USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ensures compatibility with both modern and legacy devices.

Perfect Balance of Performance and Value:

Part of the CMP Series, the CMP 500 focuses on delivering maximum value for its price point. It is an ideal mid-tower for first-time builders as well as experienced users looking for an affordable yet feature-rich case. Whether you’re assembling a gaming rig, a workstation, or a versatile home PC, the CMP 500 provides the essential features you need: durability, cooling efficiency, spacious design, and ease of use. Its thoughtful balance of cost and performance makes it stand out in the competitive mid-tower segment.
