Make your own NR200P MAX!

[@MachinesMore]

Quick note - some folks have mentioned unscrewing the front panel and flipping it. That would be the expedient route if yours is screwed on. I am uncertain whether there's a different version of the case out there but my back and front panels on both my NR200s (all made in 2020) are riveted in place. Yes, you can drill them out if you want to go that route, I didn't want to deal with that.

[@recyclebinladen5903]

To be honest, that is a far more reversible mod than what you've done (especially when it comes to the power button), and it is also a lot easier to do. You can also use the side panel fan to house some slim 120mm fans to go with 2 slot cards. And yes, the mod was anyways done by removing rivets. There arent any other variants. Edit : there is a video by another person thats from last year. Search for Inverted Nr200 mod. In it he cuts a tiny bit from the front panel and thats all you need to invert the panel. No need to 3D Print anything. Your mod is the only way one can use a 280 rad though. If you're going 240, the other mod would be better.

[@jsawhite]

@@recyclebinladen5903 I actually did the inverted nr200 mod (drill out rivets). made a few cuts to the side radiator mount and was able to put it on top (with 2 plastic studs to remove from top cover), similar to the dual radiator mod. I'm running a 280 AIO without issue.

[@Kahilg]

@@recyclebinladen5903 so my case has no rivets. All I need to do is flip it ? This is good news I was about to 3d print the part for 49 bucks 😆 🤣

[@recyclebinladen5903]

​@@Kahilg You do have rivets in your case - remove the front panel and you can see 3 of them to the right of the SSD mounts. You need to drill them out. Its very easy and anyone can do it. You just need a small enough drill bit. Once you remove the front panel, you have to cut off / file out a small bit as well. That's all there is to it. The video your looking for is called "How to customize a cooler master NR200P Build AIO with Top Radiator / Top Hat - Inverted Mod" by Straightforward Tech. He also did a second video recently called "Build your own NR200P MAX with Inverted Mod".

[@Kahilg]

@@recyclebinladen5903 love you, thanks!

[@gamerscore88]

This is the second video of yours I’ve run into while searching for specific topics. Seems like you talk about things that I’m interested in so I have subscribed!

[@shiolei]

Really appreciate all the thoughtful comments around tradeoffs and compatibility with different parts. Definitely enjoying see the mod contents and anytime some 3d printed parts are involved.

[@grantbaxter3669]

I really appreciate all of the hard work you put into these videos. Fantastic stuff!

[@swizzler8053]

Still like the normal NR200P more over the max. The fractal lumen is perfect for a bottom mount aio. Keep up the great work bro and stay safe.

[@ronscott4577]

This sounds awesome, is it with 12th gen?

[@Gorilazz.]

Mounting your aio radiator is a terrible idea. You’ll burn your pump in no time.

[@Delouser69]

How do you know which ones you can bottom mount?

[@AzzamDaaboul]

The master of NR200P, thank you!

[@xmxhmxtx]

i did this to inverse my nr200p so I can have it on the left side of my case, don't need to cut anything else, since the case is held with screws you can unscrew the frame and just flip the font of the case. love the versatility of this case

[@vlmxs]

Did you have any fitting issues? Or it is all the same just miroir build?

[@xmxhmxtx]

@@vlmxs I didnt have any issues at all personally

[@RitchieLinao]

hahah! This is what I was also thinking. THough I haven't tested it because I don't have the AIO and GPU as of now. I am only using the CPU Graphics.

[@LingBaneHydra]

Your videos are amazing! Thank you!

[@thirtysixverts]

As someone who recently built an NR200P I was honestly surprised that it wasn't setup out of the box for this radiator configuration, given that it's the most logical and best for liquid cooling.

[@kervnet]

I've had my kraken x63 AIO mounted on the side using the stock side rails (rad panel) included with the NR200P. I have always wondered if I could invert and change things up a bit so I can actually use the glass panel and see things. I might need to get a new cooler, but you've given me some inspiration to try a few things out!

[@MachinesMore]

Awesome! I think you should be able to keep the x63 if you use the rad panel.

[@muhammadamirfarqhan1140]

@@MachinesMore Is that a problem if we use glass panel instead on side radiator ?

[@CESAR_H_ARIAS]

This channel is the way to go if you want to tinker or are planning a build with the nr200. I would like you to check out the darkflah dlh21 itx case. That looks cool and opens a nice window to watercooling+ using an external rad

[@ARGO679]

Great idea! Thanks!

[@Macheako]

bro....instant subscribe ❤ awesome vid

[@rubilacxe033]

Im just going custom watercooling. still i want to see this.

[@bxnes9795]

This video is incredibly detailed and amazing but do you have any footage of a 280mm on top? I have the exact same motherboard and I own the Kraken x63 so I was wondering if they are compatible

[@b6s4shelter]

tweezer to pull your tweezer through! LOL

[@MoshiCola]

I’ve done this mod and there’s a better mod imo. Look into modding the top hat. It allows you to mount two slim fans above your rad and you retain the ability to run your build without a riser cable Only reason you should do the inverted mod is if you have a rad thicker than around 35mm.

[@zachw3347]

Yeaahhhhhh I waited months for the NR200P Max to release and I finally gave up and got the SSUPD Meshlicious. Honestly couldn't be happier and I think I'd choose the meshlicious even if the NR200P Max was in stock.

[@spektrumB]

They are both great SFF cases. Can't go wrong with either. With NR200, there are more options for a dual rad set-up, and adding more cases fans.

[@Shadow-lq7rx]

i bought it on amazon , they had a restock. happens every 3-4 weeks. usually less than 20 at a time

[@giovanifbaraldi]

Hey, bud. Im watching a lot of your videos, thank you for all the work on the beautiful nr200. Its my first time, let me ask you; whats the best location for the rad with no modification?

[@Gianniskour1991]

Hello i have nr200pmax with 4090 and i9 13900k massive mashine. The problem is i have really high temp from the cpu. Aditionally i am using the aio watercooling of the case. What you sugest. Normally the temp is around 90 dg

[@thebogsofmordor7356]

Could you, in theory, wire a Thunderbolt onto the front io?

[@eviladf7668]

Im looking forward to make a build using the Kraken Z53 on this case using this mod, do you know if it would work?

[@breadkrum6860]

So what if I inverted my case, used a 240/280 side mounded AIO for CPU, 2 bottom intake fans, and a horizontal deshrouded GPU with 2 fans exhausting the GPU upward? Do you think that would work well?

[@mrb3991]

HI I cant seem to find the NR200P MaX on Sale in the UK , Would the NR200P work just as Good ??? Thanks

[@shadow19121]

i really want the max case with out the radiator and psu.

[@therick8417]

Anything is possible with a Dremel and a little courage

[@RevelCris]

is the deepcool ls520 like the bequiet aio that can work well on the bottom ?

[@ap4702]

It's unfortunate. There would likely be more availability if the 'max' version wasn't a package but just the case itself.

[@CntBckt]

I love how the modding community that's built up around the nr200. I have to ask though-am I the only one lating it on its side with the mesh panel? It seemed like such a simple setup, especially with everyone so worried about the radiator and stuff. Am I just crazy?

[@spektrumB]

People want to use the glass panel to see all the RGB. Actually someone can build a cheap custom loop with the glass panel on, and without worrying air pocket goes into the pump. I have a soft tube custom loop with dual rads and side mess panel. No RGB.

[@CntBckt]

@@spektrumB Glass panels aren't my thing, but I do understand being proud of your work and wanting to see it. I want to try doing custom loops, but I'm too cheap for the pc building hobby. Lol

[@spektrumB]

@Diino No RGB =/= Anti- RGB. I don't have RGB in my rig. Doesn't mean I have problem if people put loads of RGB in their build.

[@matiasbahamonde9787]

Nice mod! I’m planning to build my first itx system and already have a 240 be quiet pure loop and looking forward to get the nr200p. Will it fit a 3 fan gpu?

[@atnfn]

I think when I bought the NR200p it cost roughly 115€ or something. When I checked what the NR200p MAx costs it's 450. Why is it nearly 4 times as expensive?

[@kurkurstuff2522]

is it possible to do push pull on the bottom rad?

[@caesarjohnmatencio367]

can the beefy arctic liquid freezer II 240 fit on this mod?

[@inyue.]

I want the max for the gray ish color case 😣

[@tszhimkwok9742]

6:25 lol classic tweezer joke

[@haaake]

Question for you, I actually have a Max myself with 3080 Ti FE. I was thinking I could actually use a 70mm PCI-e riser cable instead of the 50mm cable that is included to space out the GPU closer to the vented side panel, and allow more room for airflow on the back of the GPU using the extra slot 3 slot space for my 2 slot GPU. Any idea if someone makes a 70mm PCIe 4 riser cable?

[@haaake]

Love the new intro btw! More appropriate for the channel I think haha.

[@MachinesMore]

Cheers Andrew. That’s a very good idea actually! I think a 10cm riser is the closest thing and it can work- it might bunch up a little but I am guessing it would fit fine.

[@jnuts5547]

is that a pcie 4 riser that come with the bundle or just a reg pcie 3 i wonder?

[@t3rminallychi11]

If you buy the NR200P, it includes a gen 3 riser cable. If you buy the NR200P Max, it includes a gen 4 riser cable. The NR200 (non-P) does not include a riser cable.

[@jnuts5547]

@@t3rminallychi11 hey thanks for the information, i just bought an additional cooler master pcie4 riser and its not quite cheap, almost regret not getting the P version as it comes with riser and tempered for a bit extra cost, cheaper than buying pcie4 riser separately, but now that i know i am glad. thanks mate!

[@JayzBeerz]

Phanteks P200A I feel is a better case.

[@gathonar]

You just need to undo 3 rivets and flip the front panel see: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zny3hp-Dh9KSidE

Would’ve loved to see FE thermals with this mod, looked like that was going to be included in the first half of the vid.
