With the Arx 500 Core, Endorfy is expanding its successful case series with a more affordable version that still impresses in terms of functionality and cooling performance. The new model is aimed at users who want to remain flexible in terms of ventilation and value a clean, spacious design. Thanks to numerous optimizations in detail, the Arx 500 Core promises an ideal basis for high-performance gaming or workstation builds.
- Two quiet, powerful Stratus 140 PWM fans included in the scope of delivery
- High-quality air circulation thanks to sophisticated mesh design and dust filter
- Plenty of space for large GPUs, radiators and power supplies
- USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port for modern connectivity
Strong base for performance-oriented builds
The Arx 500 Core adopts the proven case concept of the Arx 500 series and, with a more attractive price, is aimed primarily at users who want to determine their own fan configuration. It includes two Stratus 140 PWM fans – quiet, effective and strategically positioned at the front and rear. Controlled via PWM, they dynamically adjust their speed to the system load, which ensures both low temperatures and quiet operation.
The ventilation benefits from numerous perforations in the front, lid and base. Combined with dust filters at key points, the hardware not only stays cool, but also clean. The removable panels make cleaning even easier – a plus point for anyone who values easy maintenance.
Space for large hardware and clever cooling
Despite the moderate price point, Endorfy doesn’t skimp on space: graphics cards up to 350 mm long, air coolers up to 179 mm high and power supplies up to 300 mm can be accommodated comfortably. Those who rely on water cooling can install radiators of up to 360 mm – a strong argument for enthusiasts who rely on high-performance solutions.
The flexibility in terms of motherboard form factor is also impressive: ATX, microATX and mini-ITX are supported. With seven expansion slots, the case offers plenty of potential for future upgrades or extensive setups, for example with multiple graphics cards or additional cards.
Tidy design with modern interface
The aesthetics are not neglected either: the tempered glass side panel effectively showcases the installed components. At the same time, the sophisticated cable management system with rubber grommets and sufficient space behind the mainboard tray ensures a clean look – and better air circulation.
The I/O panel of the case is also state of the art. With a USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 port (up to 10 Gbit/s), two USB-A 3.2 Gen 1 ports and two audio sockets, the front panel offers modern connection options – ideal for fast data transfers and uncomplicated access to peripherals.
Conclusion
The Endorfy Arx 500 Core is the perfect blend of price awareness and performance. It offers enough space for powerful hardware, impresses with well thought-out cooling and shines with high-quality processing details. With an RRP of €89.00 including a three-year manufacturer’s warranty, the case is now available in stores – a worthwhile option for anyone looking for a solid foundation for their next PC build.
