Cooler Master NR200P MAX SFF Small Form Factor Mini-ITX Case, Custom 280mm AIO, 850W SFX Gold PSU, Triple-slot Vertical Mount GPU, PCIe Gen4 Riser, Tempered Glass or Vented Panel (NR200P-MCNN85-SL0)

Alright, lets be frank. How nasty your build is going to be is highly dependent on how much stuff you intend to shove into this box. Now, to its credit, I did successfully get an AIO cooler, bonus fans, and a full sized dinner plate GPU into it, with some REALLY creative routing. Its not pretty.... but it works. Its a great little box. Its not much for show, but I really like the smaller form factor.

Fit my micro atx board, 1080ti ftw hybrid and full size atx psu (180mm length). I also have a 20tb iron wolf pro as well. Now I had to get creative and drill a few extra mounting holes for the hardware but temps are stable and with in reason while gaming. As for the included top mounting 120fans I did have to get a ultra slim 13mm to fit and use pop rivets to attach but it worked great.

Very easy to put together, its overall a nice case but not worth the $500 price ($150 over msrp). LGA 1700 has been introduced for quite some time now but this over priced case doesnt even include bracket for 12 & 13 gen cpu?

Pros: * Can mount a 280 mm radiator or GPU vertically or hard drives on side bracket, but only exclusively. * Just enough space to allow good cable management * Extremely modular construction. Allows you to remove the panels around nearly all the sides. * Front panel has enough space to allow you to hack together a twist tie mounting solution for 4 SATA SSDs Cons: * No Type-C USB on front panel * The power supply cage doesnt really allow you to easily mount a hard drive. Depending on your configuration, it straight up cannot be done. It would be nice if it allowed you to mount two SATA SSDs as well. * Cannot mount a rear fan if you mount 280mm radiator, or GPU vertically. I really love this case. Its modular, compact, and offers just enough space to allow you to snugly fit all your PC components inside. I am a little bummed out about not being able to officially mount 4 SATA SSDs into the case, but you can hack up a solution by just stacking the two extra SATA SSDs onto the mounted SATA SSDs on the front panel side. You can simply secure the extra SATA SSDs around the case with extra long twist ties or any other kind of string, rope or plastic and youll be fine. Since these SATA SSDs arent heavy and do not vibrate, I dont really see an issue for as long as you can close the panel, which you will absolutely have no problems doing.

Ive built dozens of sff computers and I love this case. I 3D printed a modified ATX holder and use an ATX power supply. You can download the print files on cooler master website. I painted the case to go along with a Halo theme and it was extremely easy to take the panels off. Good quality all around. I went with the vertical mount option to compensate for the atx power supply and it works great. Only issue you may run into with this setup is cooling. So far so good, Im running a Ryzen 5600x with a low profile cooler and a 3060ti. Temps are good but if I was running a 5900x and 3080ti the temps may get pretty hot. In all I will but this case again. Looks awesome.

I was doing a build with a mix of new components and old components from a full sized ATX case. Since this new build was meant to go into a shared living space, I had to find something that would be more pleasing on the eye than my prior giant Fractal case. This case looks great in person. Clean lines, compact, premium look, and doesnt draw attention to itself like most giant RGB gamer boxes do. Despite this more compact form factor, it fits everything perfect: multiple SSDs, RAM, a big dual fan GPU, Noctua CPU cooler, and does all of this while also having excellent airflow and easy cable management. If youre a creator or casual/enthusiast gamer, and want a compact case that looks more mature and minimalistic than the typical tacky RGB option, I highly recommend this case.

I left my NZXT H1 case behind and migrated to the NR200, so glad I did. The Achilles heel of any computer build will be the riser cable, so if you plan on doing a vertical mounted GPU please keep that in mind. The build process with this case is extremely similar to Ncase M1. A few things to take note if you decide to go with this case. 1) The cooler clearance stated is 155mm but if you decide to omit the side support bracket you can squeeze in a 159mm CPU cooler. If you go with the tempered glass side panel then 159mm may or may not be too tall and will not close if you have the tempered glass panel. Personally, I used the side support bracket and installed a Noctua C14s. 2) Fans. If you do use a Noctua C14s you will have to use slim fans for the top of the case and a 120mm fan on the Noctua. The 140mm fan that comes with the Noctua will not work with this setup no matter how you try to set it up. Normal 120mm fans fit fine at the bottom of the case under the graphics card. I have a Sapphire 5700XT and was able to fit regular size 120mm fans with no problem. You might have to go with slim fans on the bottom is you get an extra thicc GPU. 3) Power Supply. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND going with an SFX PSU. An SFX-L will work but you will lose clearance at the top and only be able to use one 120mm fan instead of two. Also with an SFX-L PSU will affect the length of GPU you can use because all the wires will get in the way. (Deep Breath) I know it’s lengthy but this is the best advice I can give and I am thoroughly happy with the NR200. I do not regret switching from the NZXT H1 and this case is great on thermals. Before I forget, buy a small 4 pin PWM fan hub, you will need it.

This is an excellent case, and one of the few mainstream and affordable small form factor PC cases. Its major relative compromise is the size, which is close to as large as SFF gets. The case is also heavier than most SFF cases, being mostly made of steel, versus aluminum or plastic. However, it has nearly no size or cooling limitations in its class. Aesthetically, it follows the general SFF PC trend of minimalist design. Anything I have planned for my build, be it the largest GPU I can afford, or adding some old 3.5 hard drives to my system, are possible in this case, which is easily transportable, though not quite backpack portable. I wont spend much time talking more about the positives of this case but Ill highlight some of my gripes, which should not be deal breakers, but ways that Cooler Master can improve the case without reducing its capabilities. Though the NR200 can accommodate almost any ITX hardware, its layout design is not completely perfect. I would have appreciated some gaps in the frame or motherboard area for routing cables behind the motherboard. One of my PSU cables is routed between the motherboard panel and the cases right side panel (when looking towards the case), but its the flat kind which raises the cases side panel ever so slightly. Others with round or quality braided cables looking to route their cables behind the motherboard without raising the side case panel will need to route the cables in the gap between the motherboard and the motherboard panel. Unfortunately, they will need to do this before installing the motherboard, and uninstall the mobo every time before disconnecting. Some extra spaces or gaps that allow the cable connectors to slide through would have solved this problem. Another gap for the 24 pin connector would have improved quality of life a little, too, though Im not sure if that would be possible in a practical spot. Having the thick 24 pin cable extending from the PSU in its default position can press down on the GPU without some careful cable management. Fortunately, Cooler Master provided some velcro straps underneath the PSU that help with this a lot, likely because they anticipated this problem for most consumers. Still, I can tell that Cooler Master intended this case to be as easy as possible for beginners, and neat cable management and avoiding pressure on the GPU will likely be a fairly difficult step of building in this case. Finally, the case could perhaps use some lengthier front I/O cables, so that they could have been routed behind the motherboard without blocking the PSU fan. Speaking of front I/O, I would have also preferred a USB type C connector on the front. I can understand that it was not included due to cost, but I would prefer a version of the NR200 with a type C port and no fans, and likely would have even paid $10 more for that tradeoff. My version of the NR200 is the base version which comes with one 92mm fan and one 120mm fan, and the included fans are fine; not exceptionally quiet but not annoyingly loud. Still, I might replace both of them with Noctua fans to get the quietest possible airflow, and the 92mm fan will definitely not fit when I upgrade to the CPU cooler I plan on getting. Though Cooler Master included fans to appeal to customers who will use stock coolers and dont want to worry about aftermarket cooling solutions, they still have an opportunity to cater to more enthusiast consumers (who constitute a large part of the SFF community). Many SFF builders will either not need the included fans, or prefer to choose their own. They likely also prefer having near to mid-term future proof features. A version of this case without fans and a type C port, offered at a small premium, would still be a great deal. My unit also came with a minor defect - the metal frame (not sure of the correct term) of one of the USB ports at the top is not completely connected. The end of the metal frame is bent inwards slightly as shown in the picture. I havent encountered problems while plugging and unplugging USB devices, albeit carefully, into the jack multiple times over the past couple of weeks, so I didnt deduct a star or try to get it replaced. Im optimistic that itll stay as-is and not get bent worse over time. If this is a problem in manufacturing, hopefully Cooler Master can address this issue.

4 stars only because there is no way to screw in the side panels, and they like to fall off when the case is tilted sideways. The positives: Was able to fit an Asus Prime B250M-A mATX motherboard in here (10.24 x 2.03 x 10.63 inches). Had to forego the I/O shield as well as relocate the external power plug so that the motherboard could slide up to the top of the inside of the case. Was able to fit a full size tower cooler with not a single millimeter to spare. Also managed to squeeze in a full ATX power supply but there was nowhere to mount it. Literally everything other than the fans and CPU cooler are zip tied. No screws were harmed (or used) in the making of this PC. Overall this is a great little chassis. No annoying/ugly branding, very svelte and nice looking. Cozy inside. High quality construction overall.

The TLDR is that this case is great. I bought another to build a new work computer, and both cases are keeping cool. I did replace the fans with Scythe 140mm fans on the radiator and 120mm slim fans for the bottom on both my home and work builds since both are similar enough. Its been a while since I built a computer and kind of set it and forgot about it. Ive dusted out the home machine once since I got that one. Otherwise my only gripe was the paint on the original case but again, that literally buffed out. The second case didnt even have much in the way of spots on the paint or anything. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Original review below: I had an original nr200 that I moved an old itx build into about a year ago and loved it. I honestly wish I had kept it instead of selling and keeping my atx build. But I probably wouldnt have gone with this then. So, its a win. After waiting 7+ months for this case, between seeing it in reviews and not knowing where to get it until it hit Amazon/Newegg, Id say it was worth the wait. This comes with two minor caveats, for me at least, that I cant imagine many people have run into. I got my *first* delivery and was missing the riser cable and one of the pcie power cables. The box looked unopened so Ill say it was a packing issue from the factory. I did try to just go through the order page to exchange it but was only given the option to return. Id imagine this is due to the cost of the item as a whole. A call with an Amazon rep got this turned into an exchange. The second little gripe I have is with the paint. On the first and second item, the paint looked a little weird. Not really scuffs but I had to take a little polish to the panels to clean them up. Not a big deal, but if someone is paying close to or over 450 for this great package, and technically for a specific color, I would think the qc on the paint would be a better. I popped an x570i Strix board with my 5900x and Strix 3080. Everything fit like a glove. The cooler does have a little whine in the pump but I keep the machine of to the side and have a fan on most of the time so its not audible. I did change the top fans out though for the Silverstone Penatrator ARGB fans to get a little more flair but the stock fans were more than capable of get the hot air through the radiator. I matched these up with their 120mm Slimmer fans. If you dont already have a computer built or want to downsize from an ATX build like my situation, this is the way to go. Be weary that the psu comes with 2x PCIE power cables that have 2 plugs daisy chained each. I dont really see this as a problem but I know there are disadvantages to this according to the internet pc building gods. I had a custom cable made anyway to add a third and there are plenty of people on etsy that can provide such a product or a full set of cables if needed. I paired this with a set of those 90 degree adapters too so it looks extra clean. I think if Coolermaster sold this version of the case, without the psu, cooler, riser, etc, for the same price as the normal nr200, I think theyd still sell a ton. Great case overall, probably never going mid/full size build again because of it.
