Cooler Master NR200 Mini-ITX PC Case, High Airflow, 330mm GPU Support

I was extremely lucky to stumble upon this case while looking for a Mini-ITX. It's made of durable, good quality metal that's heavy (but not too heavy), small with a lot of room, and extremely versatile (just about every panel of this thing comes off without any tools - just need a screwdriver for the top and bottom panels). It's pretty much perfect for both experts and first-time builders who want a smaller compact PC. This was my very first time building my own PC, and despite it being inside such a small case, the NR200 made it extremely easy to install. There are tons of places for cable management ties with unlimited potentional for different layouts. The case also has so much airflow that it cools the case extremely well. You also can't beat the price either - it's comparable to a Ncase M1 (but slightly bigger) while being less than half the cost. There are only a couple issues that I ran into: - The backside of the case does not have a lot of room to run cables. Not a deal breaker (it was still very doable) but you'll need to strap down the cables on the backside as well in order to get the panel to shut. If it had just another half inch it would be perfect. - There are many mixed answers on this, but the version without the riser does NOT come with a glass side panel (or at least mine didn't). If you want a see-through side panel, you'll have to opt for the PCI riser version. Overall I'm extremely happy with this case, it made my first build in a Mini-ITX case very easy. My PC runs very cool and there's lots of room for expansion once the 20 & 30 series cards drop in price again. My build: - AMD Ryzen 5 3600 - GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB - Team T-Force Vulcan TUF 16GB 3200MHz - 512GB M.2 NVMe Boot Drive w/ 2 500GB 2.5 SSDs - Gigabyte B550I Aorus Pro AX MOBO - Corsair SF 450 Watt PSU - 3 x 120mm PWM Fans

I recently built a system around micro-ATX motherboard and micro-ATX case. At the time of choosing components, I seriously debated if I should go with mini-ITX. I love small cases but I didn't want to pay the premium for "going small" since SFF parts are usually more expensive. Little time have passed, and every single day, I was itching to switch to ITX platform, almost driving myself crazy. This would mean that I would have to spend more than $300 to get a mini-ITX mobo (~$120), NR200 case ($80), and SFF PSU ($120). That wasn't going to happen. Few days ago, I stumbled upon a post on this case and he said very few micro-ATX motherboards will actually fit in this case. By coincidence, one of those boards was the board in my system. Then, I found another post saying that somebody put a ATX PSU in this case without the bracket using zip ties. If everything works out, only extra expense I would have is for this case at $80. Time to discuss some details of the build. System AMD Ryzen 5 3600 ASRock B450M-HDV R4.0 Powercolor RX 5600 XT Red Dragon Corsair Vengeance LPX 2X8GB 3200MHz Sabrent Rocket Q 1TB NVMe M.2 ARCTIC Freezer 7 X - CPU Cooler 2 X 120mm White LED PWM fans Aresgame 500W 80+ Bronze PSU Case I chose this case for the clean look, relatively cheap price, and, of course, compatibility with my motherboard. Upon unboxing this case, I was very pleasantly surprised. 1. Build quality - being heavy doesn't always mean high quality, but being light usually mean crap quality. This case is surprisingly heavy and solid 2. Extras - tons of accessories included 1 X 92mm PWM fan, 1 X 120mm PWM fan, 2 X fan grills, 3-way fan header splitter, mount for vertical GPU, small zip ties, and couple of velcro straps Fit / Compatibility / Build 1. Motherboard - my micro-ATX motherboard (230mm X 201mm) barely fits in this case. Only 4 mounting screws meant for ITX boards, but I'm not too concerned since GPU is held in place with screws on PCI bracket. 2. Connectors - front panel audio connector was too short for this motherboard. But I never, ever use it so no problem for me. Everything else fits and reaches just fine. 3. CPU Cooler - CoolerMaster lists clearance up to 155mm, Freezer 7 X at 132.5mm easily fits. 4. GPU - since my mobo is micro-ATX, I had to use bottom two slots of PCI bracket. This doesn't leave room to mount fans on the bottom of the case. 5. PSU - my ATX PSU is mounted against front panel with daisy-chained zip ties. You can buy 3D-printed brackets to mount ATX PSU to NR200 from *bay, but this is additional cost and I'm cheap. 6. Fans - used included fan splitter to mount 3 fans to a single fan header. 1 included 92mm as exhaust, 2 X 120mm fan on top of case also as exhaust. PSU fan will also exhaust to top of the case. Performance / Thermals The system is just as cool compared to my micro-ATX case with 5 X 120mm fans. Even though space is cramped, channeled airflow with everything exhausting through top really shines in this case. I haven't and have no plans to overclock my CPU past base PBO of 4.2ghz, idle (35C-45C), load (60C-72C), plenty cool for my usage. GPU is very close to bottom mesh panel and gets plenty of fresh air, idle (32C - 38C), load (60C-70C). Overall this turned out much better than what I had expected. Case looks AMAZING, no regrets at all. Hope some of you find this information useful!

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. It's been a while since I built a computer and kind of set it and forgot about it. I've 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 didn't 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 wouldn't have gone with this then. So, it's 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, I'd say it was worth the wait. This comes with two minor caveats, for me at least, that I can't 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 I'll 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. I'd 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 it's 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 don't 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 don't 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 they'd still sell a ton. Great case overall, probably never going mid/full size build again because of it.

3rd time using an NR200 and I still love these cases. Sturdy, really easy to build in, mesh makes the airflow fantastic and since the airflow is great the thing never really gets obnoxiously loud assuming you don't cheap out on fans or anything it actually supports full size GPUs in an ITX case and the PSU cage is adjustable which means you get wiggle room if your parts need the space.

Overall I am happy with everything!! To get things installed was a bit of a nightmare due to the tight space (and my big hands), but the engineering of the case is overall impressive! No guess work, you know everything will fit and is compatiblene with the case, etc. It's crazy what I have jammed in here and the performance I get; from such a small box! AIO has done it's job and has kept my CPU under 80C no matter what I've thrown at it. My GPU stays VERY cool with the perforated side panel too as well. Not fun to assemble but VERY happy with the purchase and the livingroom gaming build this case was purchased for. -1 star as I had to upgrade the PCIe riser cable to a nicer/Gen5 PCIe riser cable. I had to as I was having to run my 4070 Ti in PCIe Gen3 until I upgraded. Super tiny detail performance wise, but would get full system crashes in Gen4 with the included riser cable. Now my 4070 is running PCIe Gen4 noooo problem after the upgrade!

I love this case. It's well built, relatively easy to assemble, and looks great. I'm a beginner to building and this is my second PC build. I built the first one 10 years ago for gaming, and it lasted me longer than any other PC I have ever owned, which is why I chose to build another instead of buying a preassembled one. My old PC is still running well, and pretty fast too, but it doesn't have the specifications for newer updates (e.g., Windows 11, 4k display, and specifications for software updates). The main purpose of this second PC build is to be able to run statistical and data analysis software for grad school, be able to handle programing and also be gaming capable if I ever do decide to play. I wanted a small ITX PC that I can easily take with me if I need to attend school in another city. I also wanted it to look more professional than some of the typical gaming PCs out there. This case has great reviews and has a well thought-out design in terms of cooling and cable management. It met all of my criteria. It comes with an AIO, power supply, and thermal paste. Before receiving the case I was a bit concerned about the quality, but it is actually very sturdy and well built. Panels are easy to remove and put on, without too many screws. They are held in place by the design of the case. The panels clicks into the structure of the case. There is no concern about panels falling out. I did not have any issue with fitting the motherboard or other components into the case, but it is small inside and would be difficult to remove components. I had to unplug a couple of cords to try to read the serial number on the side of the motherboard and that was not fun. Overall, very satisfied with this case and would recommend it. If I have to build another computer, I would choose this case without a doubt. Out of all the components I bought to build this PC, this is by far my favorite component.

Easy assembly, wide variety for compatibility, a bit noisy but overall a great, high quality and reasonably priced case.

Review 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 they're nice and tight until you're 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 doesn't 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 radiator's top to bottom dimension. I had to spread the bracket's 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 case's 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 shouldn't make a difference once the machine is assembled, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Also, the case is pretty heavy for it's size. I was planning to buy one of the windowed versions of this case as well, but they sold out early.

Es el mejor case que he tenido. Los materiales se ven y se sienten de gran calidad, el diseño es minimalista y sobrio. Tengo otra pc más potente y me armé una itx hace meses con otro case más pequeño. Para utilizar y moverla más fácil. Pero tuve problemas con el enfriamiento y ventilación, ya que al otro case solo le podía meter el enfriamiento líquido de 1 solo radiador con doble ventilador. Pero a este case le pude meter 2 ventiladores en la parte superior para sacar el aire caliente y en la parte inferior el radiador para inyectar aire frío, junto a otros 2 ventiladores que además venían incluidos con este gabinete. Los cuales utilizó también para inyectar aire “frio”. De verdad estoy sorprendió. Además que es muy fácil de ensamblar, se puede abrir prácticamente 360 . Todas las caras se quitan con un click, no es necesario poner y quitar tornillos para esto. Lo recomiendo ampliamente. Como dato extra, Yo soy arquitecto y someto a mucha carga el procesador, con programas de renderizado. Por lo que está fue mi mejor opción para poder ventilar mejor mi pc “Portatil”.

كيس رائع جدا للتجميعات الصغيرة لكن إنتبه الفرونت بنل فيه قديمة شوي ما فيها تايب سي. تركيبه وفكه سهل جداً ويجي معه مسامير اضافية. يجي معه فلاتر غبار معناطيسية تركيب على كل الجهات للصندوق. الي ما اعجبني مخرج الكيبل حق البور مكانه اعلى الكيس فوق ما تقدر تركب مبرد مائي بالاعلى فقط على الجنب. والكرت راح يكون اسفل الكيس . كرتي حجمه كبير عرضه ٣٣٢ تقريباً وركب بالملي

I got this case recommended by my friend and I received the courier within 2 days after the order. The product was genuine and there were no damages. It was easy for a newbie like me to get this assembled and all the components are well build. Liked the way it looks and the grey color for the max version looks pretty good to me.

En un mercado tan minoritario y poco explorado como lo es el de las computadoras de alta gama en bajos volúmenes de espacio, es muy agradable encontrar sorpresas de este tamaño. Si bien el gabinete NR200 y el NR200 MAX no fueron nuevos en el mercado, la version NR200P MAX viene a corregir algunas cosas algo molestas de la versión anterior a cambio de cerrar las opciones de montura de la GPU y de colocación de enfriamiento de CPU. Empecemos hablando de su lógica y bien planteada idea de flujo de aire, aquí nos dan preinstalado un enfriador líquido de alta gama con 2 ventiladores enormes que sirven de salida de aire caliente. Mucha gente tiende a decir que esto es un error. Pero pueden ver qué en realidad las cosas de mantienen a una temperatura muy buena en general. Todo viene preinstalado y colocado de forma lógica y tranquila para la construcción. Prueba de ello es que la fuente de 850 watts tiene cables completamente personalizados, con una longitud medida a milímetros para quedar perfecto en el 99% de placas base Mini ITX del mercado. Su sistema de montura de discos 2.5 es sin herramientas y perfectamente seguro, sumado a ello, los cortes de la parte posterior del gabinete son todos brillantes y muy bien colocados. He podido reinstalar un SSD sin dolor, sin desarmar nada, solo sacando la tapa posterior del gabinete, sin ningún problema. Hablando de las tapas, nos incluyen una hermosa de cristal templado y todas, absolutamente todas, se pueden quitar sin necesidad de hacer uso de ninguna clase de herramienta. Las tapas con agujeros de respiración son ambas idénticas, quitando problemas de confusión y te brindan además guías puestas incluso en el mismo gabinete para saber qué movimientos debes realizar para su instalación y su remoción. La bomba de agua es sorpresivamente más silenciosa de lo que yo creía y bajo carga muy estresante mi GPU bajo en promedio 15 grados de temperatura de lo que tenía previamente, en mi gabinete RVZ02. Por esta razón, le doy 5 estrellas, porque veo a mucha gente seleccionando este gabinete para quedarse con el durante varias actualizaciones de GPU y CPU (En especial para AMD, ya que es compatible con AM5). Recomendaciones; 1.- Recomiendo verificar la compatibilidad de la GPU con el gabinete previo a la compra. No me mal entiendan, se puede incrustar el 98% de las cosas porque sacrificando un poco la altura del gabinete y la posibilidad de colocar el GPU "acostado", este gabinete nos permite montar cualquier GPU con PCI 4.0 en el. El problema es que algunos ensambladores de gráficas están llegando al absurdo de poner tarjetas que requieren hasta 4,5 slots, lo cual además de innecesario y ridículo, evitaría que ustedes puedan colocar este gabinete en su setup. 2.- Verifiquen la compatibilidad con Intel. En serio... Gracias Intel, no sabes cómo amamos que cada nueva generación cambies a propósito el socket de enfriamiento para las CPU. El gabinete viene con 4 sockets diferentes para Intel, y soy el primero en saber que no es suficiente. Verifiquenlo. (GRACIAS AMD por hacer el socket AM5 compatible con todo AM4) Puntos a mejorar; 1.- Precio. No me mal entiendan, es un paquete 5 estrellas porque las piezas están 100% personalizadas para esta implementación. PERO, en ofertas puedes comprar sin problemas; 1.- NR200P, 2.- Fuente SFX de 850 watts, 3.- Enfriador de alta gama de 2 ventiladores en el radiador... Y todo eso te puede salir entre 50 a 100 dólares más barato de lo que tenemos aquí. Si, vas a tener que lidiar con algunas cosas molestas de la versión anterior del gabinete, como la altura extra o cosas como que la colocación de la fuente es muy cercana a la motherboard y por tanto tendrás que pelear mucho con los cables de longitud estándar. Así que... Cae en ustedes si el tener más comodidad justifica el precio extra. 2.- Color. Alguien más sabio que yo dijo una vez; "Puedes pedir el color que quieras, mientras sea negro." Y aquí no existe esa opción (detalle muy menor) Veredicto final. Este es el paraíso de construcción Mini-ITX. De calle. ¿Es tu primera construcción de PC en tu vida o es tu primer PC Mini-ITX? Felicidades, no busques más. Este gabinete tiene absolutamente todos los argumentos para convertirse en el favorito de absolutamente todos los constructores de este tamaño entusiasta. Si bien, se le pueden señalar cosas como que es algo grande con sus 11 litros en volumen, Cooler Máster sabe aprovechar cada centímetro cúbico disponible para permitirnos tener seguridad en nuestra construcción y en nuestras temperaturas. Tiene 5 estrellas por ser un producto excesivamente completo, a pesar de su precio que puede ser considerado premium.
