Cooler Master NR200 Build in 2023: All of YOUR questions answered!

[@dylanguerrero8053]

NR200 gonna go down as the jack of all trades SFFPC case.

[@GearSeekers]

It's really good! It does almost everything!

[@druidobianco9734]

It’s a cery good and cersatile case, even if at 18 liters is just barely an sff

[@GenericPast]

Been using my orange NR200P for over a year now and I still love it.

[@GearSeekers]

The orange is such a cool colour!

[@GenericPast]

@@GearSeekers Right? Color reminds me of a spice orange Gamecube so I slapped a Gamecube logo sticker over Cooler master's logo on the front.

[@squirrelsinjacket1804]

I'm sold on my next build being a mini-itx in this case, I've always had full size ATX towers that are annoying. Saw a sweet build on pcpartpicker that incorporated a customer rgb led strip and 5" screen for looped videos that was totally amazing.

[@krümelbert_gandelcookie]

I love the music, even was still stuck in my head from last time. Great vid guys

Just ordered a nr200p for my first sff build. Its nice to see It being a future proof option for when I can upgrade to today's top products. Cheers!

[@lotus1219]

This is my favorite case. Look very clean and minimalist.

[@superboy305]

U know my heart so well, sticking big things inside little packages, I love that case.

[@sch-corp]

NR200P proving it is still an absolute beast in 2023. Do you reckon this build might be better with a side mounted 240mm AIO? One thing that irks me with the NR200P is the wasted space at the front (where you'd mount a HDD on top of the PSU cage) when using an ordinary 120mm cooler.

[@michaelmonroe5034]

Its funny how one of the most affordable .... and good cases just works

[@squirrelsinjacket1804]

I love the look of this case, esp with the glass. I agree the front panel is a total waste of space they could add maybe another radiator or spot for fans there instead. Maybe if they made a nr300p :)

[@sch-corp]

@@squirrelsinjacket1804 The ASUS Prime AP201 and Jonsbo D31 are good modern alternatives to the NR200, and support MATX to boot. Nick has done videos on both, I think!

[@tinchouru1]

I have an aio h1150i mounted in this case and the radiator goes on the side without problems. Only I can't put the glass in since it doesn't dissipate the heat, it has to be the grill.

[@Phalaxis83]

Awesome video fams. Great to see you can fit so much power in a small case these days.

[@hyetoch]

great video Nick! Now we need a successor to the NR200/200P to accommodate the ever-increasing GPUs (still watching as of commenting)

[@GR-cd2kx]

Agreed. So far it looks like it’s Asus AP201 for me

[@leeman4499]

[@GR-cd2kx]

@@leeman4499 nice! Which one? Was it the FE? I think the PNY verto might fit through the cut out too

[@leeman4499]

@@GR-cd2kx it’s the PNY XLR8. It’s pretty cozy in there, 2mm clearance longways. I had to route the 4x 8pin through the front of the case because the 4x 8pin to 12pin is an absolute chonker, but other than that the build was smooth sailing :D

[@D1craigRob]

Nah we just need to stop being stupid and buying these sized gpus. Don't buy them and they will try change up what they are doing instead of mak8ng them bigger and bigger rather than making the same sized gpu mote powerful. The size increasing like this make me curious if they are struggling with a lack of innovation.

[@grizzleebair]

Great video! Love the cards or caption idea. I didn't mind checking description for parts, but this idea is very handy!

Thank you!

Glad we could help!

[@icedmiko]

I think I’ll try with the 4090 ventus ( the thinnest and the shortest of 4090 customs ) 🧐🧐🧐

[@MK-mj6zw]

My experience after a few NR200p Builds: 4090 Inno3D OC is a tight fit, but it’s works without cutting something. 750w PSU works fine for a 450w 4090 (stock Powerlimit) with 5800x or 5800x3d. Probably the same with similar TDP AMD CPUs… Total system draw in gaming 350-500w. Worst case Szenario 600w which is still no problem für the PSU efficiency. On top of this you would have the possibility for Undervolting and save even more energy Scythe Fuma 2 wouldn’t fit with Glass panel. (Mesh was no problem) But bending the pipe Ends a little bit made it fit, no big modification but worth mentioning . Temps are perfect and it’s a silent build. You are welcome 😉

[@SeabassFlop]

Thanks for the info, much helpful!! Was this with the new/updated Fuma 2 or the OG? Which mobo were your running as well? Thanks!

3090 asus tuf + 7800x3d, will these 2 be enough with 750w psu? Also im thiking toward Peerless Assassin 120 fe cooler, does this fit the nr200p with TG on?

[@ilvichingo1844]

silent build??? i don't think...i have a 3070, 2 slim fans down her and in game the gpu and the 2 down fans are very noisy

[@krazyfrog]

What were the temperatures for this particular system?

[@brianrobinson3961]

Was recently debating between this case or the Hyte Revolt 3. Grabbed the Revolt 3 for $170 at Best Buy with included power supply. I like the looks of the NR200 slightly more though.

[@kuyakoiaguilar7767]

I initially thought my 4090 won't fit but there is a way to fit it in. you need to remove your CPU cooler and PSU. insert your GPU first diagonally. once GPU is set. install your CPU cooler and PSU

[@sosona1328]

What was the gpu? Thanks

[@Augusto9588]

You can just unscrew the structural part at the front left side as well

[@Naysy]

I see purple and I click 😁

[@GearSeekers]

Hahaha!!

[@chillkyle]

One thing you might have missed on is the HDD mounted bracket that fits on the side panel. Some people may like to fit an HDD because the cost per gigabyte for a HDD is still better then an SSD. Plus, the size of games legitimately getting bigger as development progresses further.

[@zilinate]

It can also add 2 more SSD or HDD 2.5 mm on the front behind the lid using 4 screws on 4 side of SSD or HDD then you can attach them like in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5TdmX6dmtiLrdU

[@Juice_VI]

Excellent video sir!

[@GearSeekers]

Thank you!

[@eltonko]

Have you tried installing the gigabyte from the bottom instead? That's how I got my sapphire nitro 7900 xtx to fit nr200. The bottom panel can open.

[@GearSeekers]

Yes. The GPU is longer than the case

[@eltonko]

Ouch

[@johanr207]

Enjoyed watching the video. Do some more videos on sff cases like dan a4 h20.

[@Nekotamer]

does anyone know if this case can get an atx psu in there with a 300mm card and a mini itx board?

[@AndyU96]

I'm pretty confident that the hot air from the GPU will be frying the chipset and the bottom SSD on that board :) Oh and, the chipset and the bottom SSD not only share a heatsink, but that heatsink is actually linked to the VRM heatsink through a heat pipe :)

Is it possible to put the gpu like this in nr200p max with an aio on top? Or would you recommend just air cooling with fans?

[@wl7915]

Like I said NR200P is a case aging with grace when compare to case from the same period of time. I think even NR200P MAX is not qualify to install any 4090 due to the intake clearance. And the bottom intake just messes with the airflow. My laterst upgrade is to fit a deshroud Inno 3D ichill 4090 with 2 T30 bottom intake into NR200P. I am waiting a set of 4.5cm tall 3D print feet for NR200P so the airflow won't be limited while in full load. I didn't bother to upgrade my PSU as I only use 5800X3D in this build. Nothing SF750 can't handle.
