The white CX500M: a clean, bright Micro-ATX showcase that still fits a 415mm graphics card and a 360mm radiator.
Quick Specs
- Compact case for Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX boards, finished in white
- Steel and 4mm tempered glass on the front and left side
- 3 x 120mm ARGB fans included (2 reverse on right side, 1 rear), daisy-chained
- 415mm GPU, 165mm CPU cooler and up to 270mm PSU clearance
- Front USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 2 plus two USB 3.0 ports
Built for a White Theme
This is the white edition of the CX500M ARGB. The chassis, clearances, fan layout and I/O are the same as the black version; what changes is the finish, and the price is R100 higher. It makes sense if you are pairing it with a white motherboard, white GPU or white AIO for an all-white build, where ARGB lighting reads especially well against the pale interior. A 415mm GPU limit fits long RTX 40-series cards, and the top takes a 360mm radiator. Two reverse-blade ARGB fans on the right side feed the GPU from the side, with a third exhausting at the rear.
Trade-offs to Consider
It is a Micro-ATX case, so there are five expansion slots and no ATX board support. Radiator mounting is top-only, and air coolers are limited to 165mm tall. Lighting is handled by the front LED button or through the daisy-chained fans. Cable space behind the tray is 23mm, so tidy routing matters more in a white, glass-sided case where messy cables show. If colour does not matter to you, the black CX500M ARGB is the same case for less.
FEATURES:
- White finish with full-view steel and tempered glass front and left panels
- Bottom-up vertical airflow via mesh on lower front, lower left and right side
- Tool-free front and side panels with stud fixing
- Top 360mm radiator support and up to 9 fans
- Reusable PCI slot covers and EVA anti-vibration pads on the PSU mount

Questions
Before you buy
Will my graphics card fit in this case?
It takes cards up to 415mm long. Every graphics card we list shows its length on the Specifications tab, so compare the two numbers and leave a few millimetres for the power connectors. Front-mounted radiators and fans usually eat into that clearance - the case manual will say by how much.
What CPU cooler will fit?
Air coolers up to 165mm tall, and liquid cooler radiators of 120, 140, 240, 280, 360mm. Cooler height is measured from the motherboard surface to the top of the heatsink, and it is the dimension that most often catches people out with a side panel that will not close.
Which motherboards does it take?
It accepts Micro-ATX, Mini-ITX boards. A case always takes its own size and anything smaller, so there is no harm in fitting a compact board in a larger case beyond a little wasted space.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
Yes - this one is in stock. Order before 12:00 on a working day and it ships the same day; after that it goes out the next working day. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday, so an order placed over a weekend or a public holiday ships on the next working day.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
