TUF Gaming GT501 E-ATX Full-Tower PC Case

This case is straight worth the $140.00. I bought this case to replace the Deepcool matrix 70. The metric 70 when I bought it was $69. For that, you got mostly plastic construction, front and side tempered glass panels, plastic mesh that let nearly no air through, front vents that let nearly no air through, and very little cable management. For some reason, the matrix 70 also comes with a tempered glass PSU shroud which I don't understand the use for that as the PSU shroud is to cover the cables so you don't see them. With the G 501, you get more room than the metric 70 to build as you can even have a dark rock pro 4 air cooler installed on your motherboard and have more than enough room to work with the top of the motherboard. You have more than enough room for cable management the best part about that is the holes in the PSU shroud that allow you to make that horrible looking adapter cable for the 30 series NVIDIA founders edition cards look half decent in the case. You can vertically Mount a GPU which I will be doing on Thursday when my riser cable arrives and with the sheer volume of air that is in the case the thermals for the GPU won't be an issue. With everything air-cooled, I saw a 5 to 10 C decrease in temperature for my GPU and CPU when switching to this case. Don't let the front panel scare you the side vents are huge and there's no restrictive mesh on the side vents. They are just holes in the metal front plate that allow a lot of airflow. One of the other things I really like about this case is all of the filters are fabric filters. This allows a lot more airflow through the filters. On the backside of the motherboard plate, there is a lot of potential for cable management in the back of the case. The case comes with Velcro straps already on the back and knobs for zip ties. I'm not very good at cable managing but the back of this looks a hell of a lot better than the back of my matrix did. Lastly, I do love the inclusion of the straps at the top of the case for carrying. I have a tendency of moving my case and tinkering with my computer so this makes it much easier for me. It is very much true but you get what you pay for. I went out looking for something very specific in a case. I wanted a case that could handle three 140 millimeter fans in the front which this cannot but it does have the 140 in the back which I also wanted. believe me in this case 3 one 20s in the front is more than enough airflow to keep this case cool and the 140 exhaust fan right behind The CPU cooler is exactly what I wanted. If you are looking to get this case I highly recommend it and I have no regrets about getting it.

This case is so worth the money! Some would say that for a PC case this thing is massive but you can't beat it's quality and it's looks. This thing SCREAMS "Im over compensating for something but look as I can do weight lifting with my PC while gaming at the same time!"(wouldn't suggest doing that but you got the idea). The straps on the top are super durable and can allow for you to carry a fully built pc with ease. The internals are so wide it makes the length of Texas look like hike. I have a normal atx Tuf X470 motherboard in here and I have plenty of room when cleaning and making upgrades. Building was so much easier too with the preinstalled motherboard standoffs so it's literally line up, and screw down. The PSU and hard drive shroud also acts for better cable management which was nice when making it look semi pretty. This was my first pc I've built in my life and it was so easy. I like to think Asus is like the AK-47, cause between this case and the motherboard, any one could easily build a computer. I was plug and play without a single hiccup and after a month she's going strong still! And as far as the rgb goes...personally wish I didn't come to the dark side of it but I did find it helpful when doodling up colors. All in all a solid build for those Tuf(tough) people out there. Would buy it again in a heart beat.

I wish I bought it earlier. I was debating on buying $500 range cases like Rog or Cooler master series but this in is more than enough. I can't be happier with the quality and versatility. Size is enormous, it's so easy to work inside the case. Cooling is also perfect. I can definitely see the difference now even when I push the gpu it's still quiet thanks to air circulation. Easy to remove the side lids.

This case is very impressive! I bought it because of reviews I read saying how good of air flow it has, and it does! My PC runs pretty cool even when looping a benchmark for hours...sorry I forgot the numbers. I'll rerun my tests and post the results if anyone asks for them. Realize before you buy, this is a big a$$ heavy case! It was purpose built and it does that purpose well. The handle straps on top make it easier to move around, but if you plan on moving your PC often, like for LAN party's (do people still do those???) there's other options probably better suited for your needs. If you intend on leaving it in one place, moving only to clean it, or tweak something once and awhile it's perfect. Also, there is no option of mounting an internal optical drive in the case, something to be aware of when purchasing. Just load your OS off a USB drive, download your games, and stream movies like everyone else, lol. If you must have a DVD/Blu-ray disk drive an external drive would be necessary. Overall this case made my PC build supper easy, the motherboard just lined up with no fuss, and cable management was a dream. If I had to give one negative of the case, the plastic cover that conceals the power supply and also separates the air flow/heat from it was "tricky" to get back into place. There are 3 tabs that have to be lined up across the top back section. I could get any 2 out of the 3 lined up easily, but to get all 3 took me almost as long as the rest of the build combined. Very minor annoyance and looks great once I got it in place. Just have some patience, stand the case up with the back panel removed, so you can see what you're doing from the back and it'll be fine. For gaming PC it is reasonably quiet, but not silent. Put it this way, the sound level is less than I expected. I'm not sure what else to say, it's a beautiful case and I'm very pleased with it!

Great case! Lots of room for expansion and doesn't look like a fish tank. Cooling with 360mm radiator in the top keeps my Ryzen 7 build nice and cool. Tons of room for cable management. Sharp looking unit. Good case for an easy computer build. The 3 included fans in the front hook into the MB for RGB lighting effects.

The picture does not do the size justice, so be sure you have plenty of space. The size makes it much easier to work on. It has good built in cable management space. The surface of the case has a nice texture feel. Though it is big, I think it is a good looking case. Straight out of the box, it was ready for me to put the MB in. The only downsides I see is the front 3 fans are RGB not aRGB. The rear fan is just a standard case fan. Last thing is that it does not come with a wiring hub. The size of the case makes it a little difficult to route some of the fan cables. I can live with those. Over all, I am very pleased with this case

I'm more or less an expert on PC builds. (sorry to toot my own horn) I bought this for my daily driver to replace my other case which I appropriated for plex server build. Outstanding quality. All four included case fans were perfectly acceptable and did not have any annoying whine or negative acoustics. I don't do unicorn vomit, but it is there for fans if you do. No problems fitting any size AIO, but after the annoying fans of the kraken I promptly switched back to my NH-D15 which had no problems fitting. Cable management was a breeze as it includes 3 aesthetically pleasing velcro secure strips in the right spots. I wish that there was a better solution for the front panel power switch and led cable wires to enter from the back of the case to the bottom of the mobo. There are spots, but you'd have to remove the power supply basement shroud. So I had to route them along the bottom of the mobo from the middle of the case. Still looks pro grade for cable management when looking at it, but it would have been nice for a little cut out to route those above the basement shroud. The included dust micro screens are doing a decent job. I expect to have to dust the pc about every 2 months still. The front panel comes off easily enough but is a bit tricky to get back on in this particular case. It feels like I have to be careful to not break the inserts. I did not mind the TUF logo on the front panel. It's subdued and actually hardly noticeable in my office lighting as it is. I would have preferred the power on led (on the power switch) to be a different color other than white. The TUF yellow or red would have been much better. But I can live with it. This case will last me easily 10 yrs I think. If the fans ever start whining..I can easily replace with some noctua fans if ever needed.

One of the best PC cases in my opinion. Good for all sizes of motherboards from mini-ATX to EATX. You get 4 fans included, three of them are 120s with RGB in the front and one 140 on the rear side. You get magnetic filters for the front, top, and the bottom (below the PSU). These will protect the insides from dust. You can add 3 more 120 fans on the top. You get enough accessories for your HDDs and SSDs. Two sliding trays for 3.5” or 2.5” drives and 2 slots on the back side and two on the front side which equals to four more 2.5” drives. So the total this case can accommodate is 6 drives which is plenty. There is enough space for a large PSU. Lots of holes for cables management. The texture on the case is beautiful with a tempered glass side panel. You get a large power button on the panel, 2 HD audio ports, and 2 usb 3.0 ports. There is no Reset Button though. You won’t regret getting this. But keep one thing in mind, this case is huge, so check if you can accommodate this beast of a cabinet. I got the cabinet in perfect condition. Thanks Amazon for this.

名前の通り、タフで大きかった。 そのかわり作りやすかった。

Well basing my review souly on my personal opinion out of the box the Case seems well built ; material feels premium until you open the case ; You know they put serious thought into this !! It’s freaking massive inside ; more than enough room to build inside the case kinda room !! Totally impressed ; Cable management could use some work with in respect they do give you Velcro straps which really don’t hold much but it’s the thought right ; Asus could of came up with something different in that aspect ... It’s rather straight forward ; the panels are a nice touch ; only issue I have is for someone that’s not used to the fold out doors an pull may yank down an bend the bracket!! The only thing I didn’t care for what’s so ever is the old cheaply made fan switches ... now that was a no no for me come on ; which I’ll show in my pictures .. For the price tag that’s where I have a huge issue with ; with no 3.1 hub kinda bugged me since I came from a case that had it ; 3.0 is okay yet they really could included it an USB-C “ASUS” if you are reading this What The Hell guys $246 for a case with no USB-C The fans I didn’t bother using as I put my LL120s inside so no opinions regarding cooling from them The airflow in this case is not bad at all ; 1000x better than most I’ve owned ; Lots of breathing room upfront an on the top panel An that BEASTY 140mm exhaust fan nice touch;

Gran espacio para mí RTX 4070 ti. De verdad no esperaba que fuera tan grande y es bastante bonito. Los ventiladores RGB son controlables con control que viene, desconozco si se pueda automatizar con la placa madre. El ventilador de 140mm es bastante grande pero no es RBG. Todo bien, estoy contento con la compra.

Just upgraded to the GT501 from my old Chaser mk1 that was just showing its age. This thing is just amazing from the textured paint to the LAV III like angles and shes nice and roomy. It was a pleasure to build in and the lighting comes through the front way better then expected. The only minor issue is that its straight RGB not ARGB but if your like me thats not really a fault as this case isn't really made for rainbow effects, this is a TUF case so mean red, cold blue or caution yellow are more suited, I did go a purple/aqua for fun and it seemed to work with my 3070s rgb better (still deciding). Also a point to note is ASUS on their own site fails to tell you that this case does support a 280mm top mounted AIO/RAD and has mounts for a full water build. This was only found by myself when really researching and viewing the support PDF for the case. This was a pleasant surprise as it lets you keep the 120 fans up front as a 280 up front just wont work, also there's enuff room for a push/pull setup up top for your 280 or 360mm rad. I currently have a Kraken X63 but you could also put the arctic liquid freezer II with its thick rad as a push/pull up top as well... tons on space in this, amazing for a mid case. Only complaint as of now is you only have 2 slots for a side mount gpu so the thick 3070/3080/3090s are stuck in a standard format. The pic shows a evga 3070 ultra gaming ftw and its a 3 slot just for reference, really from a cooling stand point side mount is more show then function so I'm not to upset.
