> 3 dayReview is for Black, standard version of the NR200 SFF (no riser cable, no windowed side panel) I was looking for a compact case with room to run a long 3 fan 2070 card. This case worked nicely, was easy to build in, and had some decent cable management options built in (like little tie tabs along the framework of the case to tie off to, and velcro straps under the PSU). Other thoughtful features are there are two positions for the PSU bracket, if you are using a standard SFX, or an SFX-L. The side and front covers come off without tools, but theyre nice and tight until youre ready to pop them off. The top and bottom covers come off easily as well, but are secured with one screw each. The only conflict I ran into with this case is I used an NZXT Kraken X63 280mm AIO cooler -(RL-KRX63-01) and the radiator doesnt actually fit inside the side mounted radiator bracket. The bracket bolt pattern allows for 280MM radiators, but the top and bottom edges of the bracket are bent at 90 degree angles and the resulting opening is slightly smaller than the Kracken 280 radiators top to bottom dimension. I had to spread the brackets folded sheetmetal edges back a bit on the top and bottom to squeeze the cooler in place, the solution was not elegant, but it allowed the cooler to fit. This 280 cooler also barely fit with-wise within the opening of the cases frame, but it worked so long as the cooling lines were positioned to be on the hing side of the bracket (and not the side that the bracket bolts to the case-frame). Biggest negative for me was the thinner sheetmetal where the motherboard actually bolts into, the tray has a nice big cutout on the back to access cooler backplates, but the but the thinness of the metal, plus the big opening makes the motherboard tray flex more than any other case I can remember building in. Not a deal breaker, and shouldnt make a difference once the machine is assembled, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Also, the case is pretty heavy for its size. I was planning to buy one of the windowed versions of this case as well, but they sold out early.

> 3 dayI purchased this case with the intent to downsize from a full tower NZXT Phantom. For those who want an estimate on the size difference, this case is roughly 1/4 the volume of the NZXT case mentioned above. The effort towards building in this case was a tedious and extensive process. I ended up using EVERY feature on this case such as the side mount GPU bracket for an extra USB card and fitting a m.2 to PCIe x4 adapter on the bottom slot for a capture card. I even managed an EK AIO 240 as well into this case! After all of that, I have never had a smoother and cooler system despite the size of the case. Pros: 1. Up to 5 expansion slots (2 slots are optional for side mounted for GPUs) 2. 5 side venting 3. 3 magnetic dust filters and fine pitch top grate 4. AIO liquid cooling mounting bracket 5. Compatible with triple(3) slotted GPUs 6. Simple yet effective design Cons: 1. Difficult to build in 2. Spacing between back of front panel and PSU slightly too short for larger HDDs (It could really expand on the ability of this if it had that extra 2 mm) 3. Easy SSD mount screws dont seem to fit the threading of some older SSDs?(not confirmed) Conclusion: TLDR: The quick fast easy answer to this is that this case is amazing but its hard to build in. I would not suggest anyone get this case unless they either have very little going into their system or they have an expert they can call to assemble this system. Assembly Notes: This case provided a large amount of different screws mostly all in the same thread, size and type. It also comes with two different size fans, two fan grills, and a handful of zip ties for cable management. I ended up using every feature of this case I could and still had quite a few parts left over in case I were to lose something in the future. If you are one who wants to use the AIO Cooler features of this case a note, I had to flip my case on its side to make sure the pump pushed all of the air bubbles to the reservoir before setting it on its feet again. You technically cannot mount a large HDD in this with a 240mm radiator as well. Final Thoughts: I absolutely love this case for everything I managed to fit into it. If you or a build expert you may know are up for the challenge, its a really fun but tedious build. The end results are worth it as far as cooling and size goes. I strongly recommend this case.

> 3 dayThis is a great case for what youre paying for! Coming from an Ncase m1, I wanted to use full sized fans for cooling and try out the exhaust over the power supply since it can get hot to the touch during load. You can easily fit 120mm full size fans everywhere, with the option of 140mm on the side panel. Though there is more empty space compared to the m1, you can route cables somewhat easier by utilizing more open areas. Do note that there is around a 75mm clearance from the top of the gpu slot to the bottom of the fan mount, where my 5700xt nitro barely fits in with 25mm fans in the bottom, prompting me to use screws to prop up the graphics card that would otherwise cause the fans to hit each other due to sag. A 2 or 2.2 slot graphics card will suffice to avoid coming into contact with the bottom fans without spacers. Overall for the price, I can see why people call this case the entry case into sffpcs and why its sold out easily, but compared to a full atx case this really gives you great airflow options for the gpu, cpu, and even the power supply! Pros: Front panel connector shroud, which is something I wish every case and motherboard had! Basically it puts all the power, reset, and led connectors from the i/o panel into a plastic connector which means you dont have to line the wires yourself or put them in one by one into the motherboard header. 120mm fan support on the bottom, side, back, and top Two usb 3.0 ports and a headphone jack Higher raised feet for better bottom fan intake/exhaust More space between the motherboard and psu cage so that coolers like the Noctua C14S can utilize bigger fans without rubbing on the power supply Panels are easy to take off and put back on, though the top panel will need more force to take off Cons: No usb-c support, though if youre like me and dont use usb-c or your motherboard has one, then its not a deal breaker. Top panel has non-movable fan holes that you have to use the included fan screws for, and since the mesh on top is folded in some areas to keep it in place, taking off the mesh in an effort to screw in the fans from the top doesnt seem worth doing, where a magnetic dust filter would solve this.

> 3 dayGood solid quality, and the included components are all great. The V850 power supply comes with custom length, sleeved cables, which is something you dont get if you purchase this power supply separately. Cooler Master put effort into this and didnt simply rob their parts bin like they could have. Even the Master Liquid AIO they include has been customized with longer hoses that place the pump into the perfect spot. The big question I had before buying this, which I never found an answer for by going over this stores product listing, was if an Intel LGA1700 mounting bracket was included to mount the AIO. Im happy to say that yes, one is included, so all of you 12th or 13th Gen Intel guys wont have any problems. For a pretty small case, this thing can accommodate huge graphics cards. Im running an RTX 4080FE, which is the same size as the 4090FE, and the card literally slid right in. If you plan on using the tempered glass side panel like I am, then I would recommend buying a couple of Noctua 120mm slim fans to mount in the bottom, blowing air up at the GPU. All in all my temps have been great, and Im running a 13600K fully unlocked, with an MSI Z790i MPG Edge motherboard and T-Force DDR5 6400 ram.

> 3 dayThis case is so popular its always out of stock. I finally got my hands on the NR200P and was excited to use the glass to show off my build a little. Ive never had a case with glass yet (its been a while). However, after doing a lot of research, I realized that all the great features of this case are only fully utilized when you dont use the glass side panel. Heres why: 1. When using the glass, you choke out your radiator if you mount it to the side bracket (obviously). So you have to bottom mount it and then vertical mount your GPU. The GPU does get better thermals than some other vertical mount cases, but it has still shown to hinder performance. 2. If youve seen the Gamers Nexus video on youtube, they specifically show how bottom mounting an AIO is a really bad idea. They also specifically use this case as an example. That was bummer for me as that was my entire plan. But I want my parts to last a really long time. 3. Then I thought that I would just do an air cooler. However, most of high performance CPU air coolers dont fit in this case. Any of the Noctua ones that do fit havent been released in black chromax yet and I dont want to go with their ugly brown. There are some decent air coolers that will fit, but I wasnt really excited about any of them. 4. The fact that your only option with the glass is the vertical mount the GPU kind of defeats the purpose as the graphics card will block off the rest of your build. So all the AIOs with cool pump headers cant be seen anyway. 5. This case lacks any back panels or spaces to hide cables, so all your management happens around the psu cage. Looks a little messy on the inside because of the small size imo. So if you dont care about the glass, this case is awesome. Its size, price, build, and thermals are really good. Cooler master really hit this one out of the park. You have great options with the vented side panel. I think the community has been waiting for something affordable like this for a long time. For me, aesthetics was something I really wanted to do, so I went with a Lian Li TU150 instead.

> 3 dayThis case is amazing. I opted to get the one without the glass panel and it the perfect sleeper build that looks so clean and fits perfectly on my desk tucked in the corner. My only complaint is, using the front I/O, when I have my headphones plugged in it has this annoying static. I thought it could maybe be interference from other parts with the wire running to my mobo but I dont have much options when your build is mATX and parts are all together theres no avoiding this. Wish the cable was longer to avoid it or the Panel I/O were better manufactured. Overall, still recommend.

> 3 daySo you, like me, probably looked into smaller cases because you are limited in space, or you just want something a little less prominent. My first foray into deciding which case to get, I was a little overwhelmed with the boutique, $300 2 1/2 liter whatever boxes that showed up. I thought, Damn, that kind of money can get a really nice case. This is four pieces of acrylic glued together with vape juice and sold along side matching hats and coats. Seriously, think of the $300 dollar category for ATX cases. Exactly. There are some crazy options. Stuff em full of GPUs and radiators and 400 dollars of RGB fans. Post it on reddit. But this little guy. A hair over $100 bucks at my time of reviewing. Wow. Everything comes apart, giving you access to every angle. Multiple PSU options, if get the adapter (Or print it, which they have plans for on their website.) A nice little footprint, has space for a few 2.5 drives or a couple 3.5 drives if you got the space. Cant believe the value the packed into this. I get why its such a popular SFF case. Ive always had a thing for Cooler Master cases. Still have my CM Storm Trooper from a decade ago. Still a beast and could easily be used as an armored vehicle for a smaller individual. Just need some wheels. If you feel like having a smaller computer is something you want to explore, try this one out before you start taking out loans to get some plasma cut organic steel mesh top hat loque s-1 double blown pudding bottom Yeezies.

> 3 dayI used this for a gaming PC build. No issues whatsoever; I am very satisfied with the quality of the material. Easy to disassemble for access and air flow from bottom seems good due to the design of the slightly elevated legs.
