Overview
The Tower 500 Snow is a vertically designed case with three 4mm tempered glass panels for panoramic viewing, along with two pre-installed 120mm standard fans. This chassis supports up to 12″ x 12″ E-ATX motherboards giving you comprehensive flexibility for enhanced expansion options. It can also be paired with a separately sold LCD panel kit with a 3.9″ LCD Display for maximizing the PC’s visual effects.
Space is never a problem
Whether you’re a creator, enthusiast, gamer, or simply a regular user, the Tower 500 snow is designed for you.
Modeled after our legendary Tower 900 super chassis, the Tower 500 snow was created with the direction of inheriting all the significant functions while minimizing the overall footprint. On top of that, the Tower 500 snow allows additional support for an All-In-One liquid cooler, support for an E-ATX motherboard (max 12”x 12”), or any ATX motherboard. Users can build their PC the way they want.
Create and display your dream build
The Tower 500 snow’s versatile interior is designed to suit the needs of both all-in-one and custom liquid cooling solutions, and it offers three 4mm tempered glass panels located at the front and sides, serving simultaneous protection while allowing the perfect showcase of your internal components.
Visually pleasing, totally interactive
Maximize your Tower 500 snow’s visual effects by upgrading it with our optimal LCD Panel Kit.
The 3.9” LCD Display allows you to monitor real-time information and upload any images or GIFs to add extra flair using the TT RGB Plus 2.0 software. It also allows you to interact with the cooling components that feature the same LCD displays. The latest version includes climate mode and time mode for users to expand the usage of our LCD displays.
Powerful cooling performance for 360mm AIOs
The enclosed radiator bracket can be installed on the right side, supporting up to a 360mm All-in-One radiator or any LCS radiators under 399mm. The space is sufficient for a push-pull configuration, with a total of six fans installed on the radiator to pursue extreme performance. The right-side panel can also be flipped 180 degrees to allow direct heat extraction from the mesh and further enhance ventilation.
Say goodbye to heat congestion
The vertical design of the Tower Series products adopts a chimney effect design to direct the heat vertically. With the Tower 500 snow’s reimagined thermal design, you can pursue extreme system performance without worries.
Brilliant airflow & Incredible performance
Thermal images were taken during thermal testing. As you can see in the below photos, we were able to ensure that the cold air intakes and hot air exhausts are well-developed when designing this chassis, ensuring the interior temperature stays low and stable at all times.
Blow your world away with 2 powerful pre-installed cooling fans
2 x 120mm pre-installed rear fans were tested to be placed at specific positions to enhance cooling performance, preventing overheating for the CPU and GPU.
Choose the way you install
The Tower 500 snow has a new fan bracket that can be either installed vertically or horizontally to house 2 extra 120mm fans or a 240mm radiator.
Cleaning made easy, we’ve got you covered
Covered by seven magnetic easily detachable particle filters, the chassis is designed to keep out dust, dirt, and grime. The quick release mechanism makes cleaning easy and straightforward giving the user more freedom to what they like while spending less time on maintenance.

I love the Tower 500, I’m curious about the GPU mount? Does it come in black? Where can I get it? How much was it? …Thank you, great video.
Thanks for your comments. I would like to apologies in advance if I misled anyone. The GPU vertical mount is not included with the chassis. I separately bought the vertical GPU mount … but I wanted to see if it would fit in the Tower 500. It fits ok. If you want to buy the verticla GPU mount go here … https://amzn.to/3J35C9E
im also curious about the vertical gpu mount. Im wondering how you would connect the hdmi or dp cable to the gpu? Im assuming this was only for aesthetics in this case? it would have to go thru the case and im not sure if there is a hole big enough in the back of the case for the connector end to fit through? just trying to figure this out before i actually order a 60$ part i might not be able to use?
What nobody seems to mention, is that the case doesnt suppport push/pull with AIOs on the side. The glass sits too tight. Also, if you are looking for a case that shines in airflow, Look elsewhere. It also says that 140mm fans fit up top. Well sort of, if you dont mind a couple fan screws not aligned. Really had to cram them in there. The side vents arent very functional, they donot flow well and they dont line up to an AIO well (very sloppy in this aspect) I leave a side off while I game to vent the heat. (Ryujin360mm/12700k/3070ftw3) I run 2 140mm fans up top one being an icegale xtra which moves serious air but, I may have to add another and replace the corsair QL140 thats in there beside it as the thing will still heat up a bit under heavy load. I Bought a TT CTE750. Much better display case imo. BTW, That diy GPU mod mount more than likely will require a right angle cable. Otherwise you wont be able to put the glass back on without bending the cable beyond its like. There are slots on the floor of the PSU cover, also on the wall under the motherboard mount. Cables are no issue in this case unless they are short.
