The airflow design of the chassis is one of the factors to affect the internal thermal performance. The Gigabyte AORUS C500 GLASS is mainly designed with large-area mesh and vent design on the front and top panels. Increasing the ventilated surface can bring more airflow into the case to achieve better heat dissipation, which allows users to make the system cooler and enjoy a stable performance.

AORUS C500 GLASS can fit up to E-ATX motherboards, 190 mm-height CPU coolers 420 mm-length graphics cards and 220 mm-length PSUs. The fan system supports three 140 mm or 120 mm fans at the front panel, two 140 mm or three 120 mm fans at the top panel, and one 140 mm or two 120 mm at the rear.

AORUS C500 GLASS takes the card’s thickness and shape into account and provides two vertical holder kits which can respectively support 73 mm and 160 mm card thickness for installation so that users can avoid unsuitable size problems.
Excellent Cable Management
There are some cable grooves and holes in the rear cabin, users can quickly and flexibly manage cables. The rear cabin has a wider groove around the edge to increase the additional space to hide cables. Users with multiple cables can make proper use of these corners and spaces to manage them. This prevents the problem that the side panel cannot close due to the cables. The excellent cable management keeps the cables neat and tidy, making the airflow in the case more efficient.
Easy to Install. Easy to Use.
The swing door design allows users to install the fans and radiator without removing the front panel, which can not only avoid the risk of the cable-pulling but it is also convenient to perform any changes in the hardware and easier to clean. In terms of the PSU installation, users can mount the PSU on the mounting plate in advance, and then push it into the case from the rear side. The chassis is equipped with dust filters on the front, top and bottom, which prevents dust accumulation in long term and provides the best cooling performance. The dust filters on the front and top panel are magnetic whereas the one at the bottom is detachable., Both are easy to clean.

When removing, the side panel is opened by tilting first, which is convenient for users to take out it, which can avoid the risk of uncarefully slipping off. In addition, the non-drilled glass design effectively reduces the risk of fragmentation, allowing users to remove it with ease and safety, also extending the product lifespan.
