Way to go Cooler Master! Completely misunderstanding what made the NR200 / P so compelling
Poor sales on the V2 is the only way to send the message.
It's kind of crazy that they just looked at the v1 and how well it sold and how much people liked it and were like: yeah let's NOT do that again...
A lot of crying in the comment section. So this is basically the NR20OP MAX layout. I own both the max and the moon Max. The non max has a flawed design forcing user to mount the AlO Rad. at the bottom and only supported Air coolers upto 54mm with the tempered glass panel. i agree they should have released both the max layout and the non max layout as LIQUID & AIR variant
The Max is definitely better for a AIO build.
This v2 makes for a cleaner build, but it forces you to use a GPU riser card and AIO cooling. Not sure I dig that.
I hope the v1 is still going to continue to be available
hope the v2 has foc the riser cable for us like nr200p
agreed, seems like a step forward and two steps back
Same thoughts. The original had more options
@@boonie3 CPU keeps getting hotter because of hot air from GPU. -_-
I hope they don't discontinue the original, seems like these serve two different needs.
So maybe it should be called NR200P Liquid or something :)
I do feel this v2 version is like a retail version of nr200p max case...
I'm surprised none of these companies have yet come out with a mini-ITX case that literally puts the terminals for a waterblocked GPU right in front of the CPU(parallel loop). 2 tubes from CPU GPU, 2 from GPU to two bulkhead connectors, external radiator/rad/pump with quick disconnects at the bulkhead connectors. They could sell a mini-itx case AND a framework for the rad/pump/res, solving their problem of "we don't sell enough stuff to make this affordable" as well as "maintaining a custom loop is hard".
The original is being discontinued
They ruined the case, it was selling well because:
1. It was cheap
2. Had minimal hardware restrictions
3. Was relatively small / good looking
Now that the 2nd point is not the case anymore it makes the 1st point also irrelevant, because for budget builds you will need an aio raising the budget for no reason
AIO isn't even the biggest issue, there are cheap AIOs around. It's the cost of a decent PCIE 4.0 riser that really adds to this thing...
@@jinliangfoo8546 oh they dont even include a riser? So the 80€ case jumps up to like 200€ with aio and riser... Wtf thats so stupid
There are budget aios. Like the ones from Thermalright and idcooling
I'd say that ITX builds aren't such budget-friendly builds. Personally I like the idea of a vertically mounted GPU and better fit options and better I/O ports. I'm agnostic on AIO cooling. My understanding is also that an appropriate riser cable would logically be included with the case (and yes, I understand that you'd still pay for it)...
i'm sure they gonna still sell the V1 as cheaper option. this just replaces the max variant
Definitely a regression. All they really needed to do was update the front-io ports and call it a day. Not everyone goes for water-cooling. Nor does everyone go for 4090+ monster gpus where sag is a massive issue (especially in mini-itx builds where size and heat become major factors).
actually i would love the NR200p V2 ( as i have both the Nr200p and the Nr200p max ) to have just little more width and length like enough to fit a 4 slot card with a little room between the mesh and card and just a little longer to fit the bigger longer card my RED DEVIL 7900xtx would slide in there nicely with just a few extra CM to width and length !!
The case is catered to ITX + big GPU user tho 😂
note that this laptop is not an 'apology replacement', bought it *along* w the pc by normal working
last time i check i got malfunctioned spacebar, right click and other keys instead, to make things spicier
Cooler Master might of just peeved off the ITX community with these changes. One of the biggest things about the original NR200/P was how accommodating it was for whatever build you wanted to do. Vertical or horizontal mounting, air or liquid, seeing people fit matx or ATX in the case. This just isn't going to fly with this case. V2 is a real step back from the V1. 😬
i'm one of those that don't want to deal with a riser cable, V2 goes off my list 😐
In what universe you can fit an ATX in the NR200P
@@joseqmedina101 ATX PSU can fit in the NR200.
Your main issue seems to be not being able to horizontally mount the GPU--I don't see why they couldn't make a horizontal adapter with that slide-in GPU mounting plate. The new radiator mounting seems like a direct upgrade. I don't think this case is a miss at all, but I do agree that the lack of a horizontal adapter and the price increase is dissapointing.
That is only true if the original nr200p ceases production
$140 seems hella steep… og came out at $99, but ended up also rising in price. :/
Ya, I got mine for like $40 after a sale and rebate.
The original was going for 60-70 on the regular
Coming from a v1, sounds like Coolermaster hasn't seen that the supermajority use air coolers (check out the subreddit) and barely ever mount a GPU vertically or even mention that's something they want to do. Adding room at the top for an AIO is great, but forcing vertical mount GPU is a deal killer. Just give us more room at the top to mount an AIO or a radiator for a custom loop and leave the horizontal GPU mount please.
Im running an rtx 4090 in my build and this version wouldnt be able to accomodate it... The v1 seems way better for me
why is a vertical mount a deal breaker
@@i_am_acaiit forces you to use liquid cooling rather than the much more reliable option of a big air cooler. Did you even watch the video?
@@adriandotexe Frankly I had the same question. IMO vertical mounting of GPU is better as it mitigates sagging issues. Personally I'm not sure why AIO coolers are so bad.
@@apricanephoto AIOs have more points of failure and generally cost 2-3x as much as a good tower cooler. For 90% of people, a good tower air cooler is more than sufficient.
And as with riser cables, I'd rather have the option to add it later if I want it, rather than being forced into it, raising the price drastically. The V2 is a $80 case with a $40 riser and a $20 markup.
this seems to not be a replacement of the V1 but an alternative - I hope they keep the other version around for those who want a tower cooler and horizontal GPU orientation
Unfortunately V1 will be discontinued.
@@felipepomar that's very unfortunate
V1 is retired.
Look how they massacred my boy. They threw away all the versatility of the case. They should done the front to be reversible so you can build it inverted and that's all it needed to be perfect. But nooo. The remove the option to use a good air cooler, force to use a riser and vertical GPU, removed the chance to use and ATX PSU, removed the space to mount an SSD or custom WC pump/ reservoir. Really messed up
Even making it to be built vertical too would be an awesome addition. But well, we can't have it all. What would be nice would be an nr100 (smaller) and an nr300, (just little bigger to support matx-)
Newbie here. Whats so bad about using a riser card? its included with the case.
i mean the longer they ignore the issue, the more i think that way, not the environment i want to spent long time with, let alone working
@@TheIdo14 that the way to do the V2, was to make it reversible like the Lian Li 011 EVO, you want horizontal card and CPU cooler, go with stock, you want vertical card and AIO, go with inverted. They only had to make the front chasis panel screwable insted of riveted and that was it.
Disappointed with the new NR200P. Top mount 280 is nice but they’ve removed flexibility by forcing vertical mount gpu, so air cooling is no longer possible. I would have preferred if they made the NR200 mATX compatible instead and increased the width by a couple mm for more air cooler clearance.
Same!
Disappointed!
It's possible they didn't do that because then they'd be competing directly with the SAMA IM-01, which is a larger (by about a liter, iirc?) NR200P clone with mATX support and has been available for two-ish years now. It's not perfect though, if you have a mATX mobo that's a bit on the tall side, the bottom I/O connectors will interfere with the bottom fans (they could've avoided this by offsetting the fan mounts) and the panel porosity is more restrictive compared to Cooler Master's.
@@blarghmcblarghson1903 that makes sense. I mean a lot of folks had requested top mount AIO support for the next nr200 so I get why they added it, I just don’t see why they needed to kill air cooling options to do it.
This case isn’t the issue, the issue is that they’re discontinuing the V1.
Most people want the option to have an air cooler and a horizontal GPU. I’m glad I’ve got the V1, it seems like an upgrade atm.
With the V2, it's almost as if they're selling the NR200 Max without the "max" addiitons
In my opinion, this case is 1 step forward, 3 steps back.
I mean yeah kinda, why is that bad? $350 for a case that includes a PSU and pre installed 280 rad or get this for like $150 and I've already got a 240 rad and PSU why would I spend 350 for the max when I can get this that does basically all of what the max does for less
@@robertthomson1994 I meant to say, that it's unfortunate that horizontal mounting was removed, and air cooler height is restricted so much
I'm going to echo the same sentiment as everyone else. This is a fundamental step back in case design for Coolermaster. They got rid of the flexibility everyone loved about the case. It wasn't a standout in any other area. Now it's just more expensive, while having about as much flexibility as any other sff case and likely worse quality than something like a dan a4 h20.
One of the things cooler master could do is redesign the rear bracket to allow the GPU to sit higher. This might allow dual rad which would actually make for a decent showcase build with good temps.
Well, this is super unfortunate and not at all a disappointing.
This feels like the NR200P Max without hardware. I'm really happy with my Max but it is more limiting than the V1. Also I'd love to switch out the front panel connection of my Max for the new ones because of USB-C I really hope (but doubt) there will be the option to buy just that part and swap it
That seems to be exactly what it is. Which is not a bad idea per se - people might want to buy their PSU and cooler solution elsewhere. The USB-C front connection IS a nice add-on but it won't compel me to upgrade any of my 3 NR200Ps (one of which is a Max)
I prefer to original design which allowed me to gather cool air to my 280mm AIO from the side, and cool air to my GPU from the bottom. Larger exhaust fans at the top of an already great design was the only improvement which would make me consider an upgrade over the model 200p.
Completely agree...i love the nr200 for its efficient airflow even superior to a full tower case!!!!
Disappointing. I have both the Max and regular NR200p and chose to stick with the regular as it performs a lot better compared to the Max. The problem with the Max layout is when running a hot GPU (7900XTX in my case), the AIO gets saturated with hot GPU air as its the only point of exhaust. Looks like I will stick with my aircooled V1.
I mounted 2x slim fans at the bottom as exhaust. Certainly helps.
@@JoeMaranophotography tried this too but the GPU temps increased by 4 degrees which is unacceptable for me. With the regular NR200P i can get full ATX like temps with a horizontal gpu and air cooler setup.
@DaleKimi166 Oh that's odd. You sure you put them to exhaust and not intake? I'm using mesh panel BTW.
@@JoeMaranophotography had the Max case for 8 months +, regular NR200 year and a half. Tried every config. Getting much better temps on the OG.
@@JoeMaranophotography The NR200P will always be superior over the Max when it comes to CPU/GPU Temperature Balance. If configured right the CPU & GPU gets fresh air and on top of that the "hot" leftover air gets dragged out of the case through convection and two top fans. It literally can't get better than that.
I am very disappointed with NR200P V2, there are nice upgrades like top panel, 280mm AIO compatibility but only vertical GPU mount basically kills this case. :/
I was pleased with the esthetics of my build when I used NR200P v1 with glass panel and vertically mounted 3060ti. I've even used Bequite Pure Loop AIO, so the pump was not on the top of the circuit. But then I've decided to upgrade GPU, and I was able to fit it only horizontally, so it's not so sleek anymore.
Pros of V2:
+ top 280 rad mounting
+ PCIE 4.0 riser
Cons of V2:
- more expensive
- less GPU configs
- no air cooler support
- no side or bottom radiator mounting
- slightly taller than 274 mm but still can't support a 240mm mAtx board
If they just:
+ enabled mATX install + ATX PSUs support
+ lower cost and sold PCIE 4.0 riser separately
+ keep everything else the same.
This would probably be the best SFF case.
Great review though! Keep up the good work Adam.
don't forget new type c port
I bought the one with the AIO and PSU included as a Christmas gift to myself. I didnt have any issues with MoBo connectors or anything. Thermals have been great too. No complaints at all.
What GPU/CPU combo do you use? Looking at getting this myself
@@StevenMakesVids I've got an EVGA 3090 and a Ryzen 7 7800X3D
I’m downsizing my mid-tower to an ITX build and had a white V1 on order with Amazon, but shipping is delayed as it’s out of stock. After seeing this video I’ve cancelled the order and found one in stock elsewhere. More expensive, but I don’t want to take the risk that a restock will be for the V2 and I end up with a case that’s less flexible than the original. Removing the horizontal GPU option and forcing the use of a riser cable is an L for Cooler Master, as there are already better, smaller sandwich layout ITX cases out there.
The V2 is kinda like the previous NR200P Max. Just without the aio and psu bundled in.
So I’m actually excited for this case.
I hoped they make option to mount a mAtx board in it, some people already making this mods and the same sized sama im01 case allows this.
A Big Nope for me, i don't use Riser stuff I want the Classic Layout
Hopefully they don't discontinue V1 as I was recently planning to go for this case with cpu air cooling but aren't able to build it just yet. I just don't trust water cooling, one leak or pump failure or something and you'll get a huge headache.
Cooler master once again ignoring the community. While all my own builds are water cooled i would never suggest to take air cooling support out of the nr200. The vast majority run air coolers on it, its insane they did this. No one asked for vertical gpu mount only. They literally made the nr200 worse for the 2nd time. Yes the max was a worse case, there are reasons why lots of nr200 users recommends against it. Not to mention the quality issues with the aio and psu you pay a premium for.
All cooler master need it to do was to put those new vented panels, the type c would of been nice, and the cut out at the bottom to fit matx boards. People could of still fit a 240aio at the top if they wanted to like i done a few times.
Yes, this. Even if I only got USB C I would have bought it.
Is using an aio cooler and mounting vertically really that bad? I'm new to SFF builds so I'm not sure. I thought it was pretty cool.
3:16 "Most people used the first version with tower coolers".
Proceeds to tell how this one does not support them because of the GPU. CM missed out on that. They could make an add on to change the GPU to sit horizontally
I like the V2 a lot. I managed to get a black and white v1 last summer for around 60 bucks each after coupons and rebates. I'm on a search to make a budget friendly ITX build but finding inexpensive ITX boards is proving an issue.
ASROCK and Gigabyte have a few mbs that are under 100
Personally don't mind this v2 , sorry for those missing out on air cooling n horizontal GPU.
Your best bet is hoping the Dan case a3 matx gets released soon or streacom sff1
Oooh, basically an improvement of nr200max "chassis only"
Improvement? What do you mean? The USB C, or was it the black and/or white color? GGs Cooler Master, GGs.
So what’s the point? There was already a max variant that honestly looks almost identical except for the usb C port at the front.
What they should’ve done imo:
-increase the cpu cooler height support by like 3-4 mm.
-top rad compatibility in the standard configuration.
-maybe an optional mesh front panel.
-probably something else I forgot to mention.
this is basically NR200P MAX with added type c port, new front hole, and sold without PSU & AIO
$140 is nuts for this. I was all for it, but wtf. No. Just….no.
How to make the ITX community mad:
Change something. Anything really. Anything at all.
i feel like I am the only one that loves this. I was looking for a SFF case that supports a 280mm AIO *and* a triple slot card (I have a 4080 FE). There are very few choices out there. The older NR200P Max includes an AIO, but won't fit other AIOs. If that one fails, you'd need to contact Cooler Master for a replacement. This is much better imo.
As a NR200PMAX owner i like it!
Edit. Actually it's not really different at all still can't mount 2 full sized fans at the bottom (I have 2x 15mm)
Seeing this makes me feel like I made the right call switching to the AP201.
Yeah, the AP201 was what I was thinking of getting, but wanted to wait to see if the NR200 got an update to the USB C... got that but disappointed by the riser and limitations of the setup now. How are you liking the AP201? What are the pros/cons in your mind?
Love my ap201
VERY different cases. 33L and 18L are not even remotely in the same category.
Hope Cooler Master is listening to feedback, because this design direction is not great.
* No rear fan, meaning GPU will cook the radiator.
* Slim fan underneath GPU - why?
* No mATX motherboard support!?
They should've just added the extra 20mm height needed to increase compatibility.
I like everything they did except we can no longer rotate the pcie slots. I don't like vertical GPU mounts. That little design flaw probably cost them alot of money. Because most customers just wont buy it because of that feature is no lacking. So go back to the drawing board Cooler Master for your N200P v3!
I would build with AIO regardless. Plus bigger GPUs…That’s what I’ve been waiting for exactly…
this one is more like nr200p max. I felt like CM just removed psu and aio from the nr200p max and renamed it to nr200p v2.
Anyways, its a nice thing to have a refresh. I like the v2 over the v1.
A lot of negativity from potentially experienced SFF builders, fair enough. But as someone in the planning and purchasing stages of their first SFF build, this is pretty attractive since it’s everything I like about the NR200P Max but with my own choice of PSU and AIO. Interesting stuff
I feel like the V1 primarily just needed an update to the front panel ports and support for a top mounted AIO in the glass side panel version.
I really like the look at this, I hope to pick one up
If it's really 4 slots clearance for the GPU I think I found my next case
The only upgrade here is USB C, hope we can mod that onto the V1 cases lol
4K 240hz with 1080p 480hz OLED monitor only 1199, Let’s Go !!!!
I was highly anticipating it and waiting on it as I really like the older one but it was missing USB C on the top/front panel. They added that, but disappointed it's now a riser and seems like it won't work with the air cooler I want to use. Really bummed as I was thinking we'd get an upgrade with at least USB C and maybe other improvements, but they really limited it's use.
Now back to square 1 for figuring out a case, I might just go with the older version and either mod a USB C in or just use the one on the back of the motherboard. I REALLY like the size and ease of building in it as I bought the older one for my daughter to build in and when I helped her I got extremely jealous of the case. LOL
time for me to buy the old one since this won't mount 2 radiators with fans on it.
If it had normal gpu mount this would be elite
So basically they gave us the NR200P Max minus the psu & aio in other colors besides grey. I have a Black V1 literally brand new that I even 3D printed a top hat for so I could comfortably add a 240 rad & fans up top. Changed my mind to a A4-H20 after printing the top & now it just sits in it's box unused.
so instead of making a better version of the nr200p.. they've imposed hard restrictions... and basically telling builders, "you have to build this way"
the og version def had limitations... but it was possible to work around them. that is what made the og nr200p so versatile. this case, you can't even work around.
i haven't kept up with og nr200p case builders.. but i feel like Coolermaster could've just given it more height, updated front i/o... add that new mounting system at the top for aio cooling instead of the flimsy implementation the OG one has.. and kept mostly everything else the same... there's prob some other tweaks I don't know about (bc i don't keep up with builders) that CM could've also included.
i was excited when I heard there is a V2.. after watching this... i'll hard pass.
edit: just saw it's $140... LLLLLLLLMMMMMFFFAAAAAAOOOOOOOOO
What really made the NR200 stand out was that you could use a tower cooler and NOT use a GPU riser. Now that this is no longer possible, it's just another mini-ITX case. All they had to do for the v2 was add USB C to the front IO, and it would have been fine. Hope they release an air cooler version closer to the original.
Thinking of getting this to modify my nr200p max. For the new color panels an new front IO
Looks to be a stripped down NR200p MAX in a lot of ways. The main reason I like the nr200 and nr200p is because I could go without using a finicky riser cable. Plus I deshroude my GPU and refuse to go back.
Well as someone who actually has the max version with a 7950X 3D and 7900 XTX, and learning what the cooling capabilities are of the liquid cooler I would actually prefer this upgraded version to switch to. And put in a much better 240 radiator cooler and get the updated ventilation that it provides as well in the newer Mini ITX power supplies
I bought the NRP200P V2. It has the design I wanted.👍
Why only this channel had this nr200p v2? Is this case real or just gimmick display by cooler master booth?
Ugh. Not a coincidence they had an entire display of liquid cooling components on the table behind you. I'm guessing the markup on liquid components is huge. I literally only wanted the ability to stand the NR200/P vertically and potentially the ability to reduce the length (front mounted PSU and a 270mm graphics card), since there is a lot of empty space as it is now.
Only including vertical GPU mounts is a regression, they missed the ball on this one. hope they listen to alot of this feedback and make an additional bracket or a V3 with both horizontal and vertical mounts, they'd sell thousands.
I like all the subtle all-white details but I think I’ll stick with my v1 n200p.
Clearly the V2 hasn't fixed the bottom standard height fans. I rather have less room bottom clearance and have more room for taller fans.
The slim fans are basically a step above useless and don't move enough air and you often have overheating under stress. Even if they had to make the case 15-20 mm taller it would be a better overall solution.
From my experience slim 120mm fans also sound like complete ass if you're really into pleasantly sounding fans (like the NF-A12x25 or preferably T30 for example) and at the rate those slim fans are sounding acceptable, well, you might as well let one off in front of your case because that's probably getting more air into the case than those slim 120s at low speeds.
@@NoName-st6zc .. I agree, it's a known issue. I've seen people mount two fans underneath and 3D print taller legs.
They really got rid of all the shit that made this case cool. Nr200 stood out for being compact but still versatile. Forced vertical video card means no air cooled cpu, and no glass panel. Super disappointing.
I wonder if you could frakenstein a v2 top with the v1 so you get your top fans up to 140 mm, but you can still use and air cooler with a horizontal gpu with no riser
That's what I was thinking the entire time 😂plus get to keep the side mount.
Fans up to 40mm? What fans do have 40mm? Or do you meant to say 140mm?
@@NoName-st6zc yea i edited it to 140.
@@planetxaudio1699 Alright, that makes more sense then although when it comes to me personally, i couldn't care less about 140mm fans to be perfectly honest with you. I've tested all of the good 140s and they're all quite disappointing compared to top 120mm fans in terms of their noise profile.
So it's an NR200P Max but without the included PSU and 280mm AIO. As other commenters have said, this is a bit of a step backwards I think. One of the great things about the original NR200 was the versatility (including the ability to use big tower coolers). Of course, the NR200 has since been surpassed by other models like the Sama IM01 and Gamemax Spark that support mATX and ATX PSUs in a nearly identical footprint.
Not to be mean, but how is NR200P V2 not a stripped out version of the NR200P Max with a bit more of height? What I liked about the previous version (and most people I presume), was that you had the versatility to do do both a water cooled or air cooled build. The good part of this new case now is the 140mm fan / 280mm aio support up top, the bracket not coming with lid and the type C port. Major down side is no horizontal GPU support and singular regular fan (having to use a scondary slim fan).
Hopefully they'll make a V2.1 correcting all this with user feedback.
Can't believe Coolermaster pulled a Discord by making an already great product worse with meaningless changes, angering the community.
Oh no. I really dislike the move to AIO only. Really hope they keep selling the original.
Heaven forbid they actually get opinions from community before making drastic design changes.
Much better than the v1 for me: horizontal GPU doesn't work with big large cards, enough videos on YT on breaking cards due to the weight. Also supporting larger cards (mine would not fit v1, which is why I didn't go ITX, very few cases do support large cards). I just hope the riser cable is included for $140.
It's great, but they should've added a second standard 120mm fan on the bottom. This would add only a few millimeters to its height.
I was pleased with the esthetics of my build when I used NR200P v1 with a glass panel and vertically mounted 3060ti. I've even used Bequite Pure Loop AIO, so the pump was not on the top of the circuit. But then I've decided to upgrade GPU, and I was able to fit it only horizontally, so it's not so sleek anymore.
I have the NR200 now... I actually like this layout better than the original... But I'm also running a 280mm AIO and want to fit a 4090 in there. The plumbing for the 280 is uncomfortablely tight... So this looks like it would solve that AND give me more GPU options.
It seems people are over stimulated by v2 case. The original is still sold by my research. It is just an adopted evolution that many manufacturers make. Perhaps the ninnies will chime in again when V3 comes out...
This looks just like the NR200P Max without the included PSU and AIO. It is not a truely version 2 of the iconic NR200, but rather a refresh of the line. The Nr200 was release over 3 years ago and cooler master has always tried to update one of their most popular itx case.
Personally, Im not a fan of this redesign. It doesn't improve enough the great design the original NR200 has.
FYI you couldn't mount an AIO on top before on the regular NR200/P, it was only possible on the side
Perfect
The nr200 v1 should just added a front fan with mesh panel so you can have it as an exhaust for the GPU that builds up heat... if you are using the Nr200 normal gpu straight into motherboard. that would have helped with cooling temps and I would have been able to cool both the CPU and GPU from the side and use top and front as exhaust.. At the moment my temps are good but on a risen 5900x and RX 7900xtx it does get hot.. I am forcing the temps to max 78degree cause I think the temps goes crazy when I am in Warzone..
This might be the case for my all new AMD build.
Are they improving the filters as what they promised to Kitguru?
soo basically the nr200p max without the PSU and AIO
It’s just an NR200 Max barebones reskin, but can fit a bigger GPU now.
Hopefully they keep selling the first version
lol nr200p V2 is exactly the nr200p max wtf
Side mounting on a riser for Founders Editions now heats the ram and cpu for good
Good way to stress test your RAM at least...and put some more thermal pressure on your cpu.
9:40 Twist Ties .. Cooler Master went all out from $30K+ simulators to 1/4¢ twist ties. 😂
CM really missing the boat with these updates. The NR200 succeeded because of its versatility. Limiting the scope of options in the V2 is 1 step forward, 2 steps back. Higher cost for fewer possible configurations? Big L.
👍 Nice job Adam, you're killing it man!
What they needed to do? Move psu plug to the bottom right corner of the back of the case, to allow use of mATX motherboars without changing the size of the case, and thats basically it. Done. even MORE versatility. But they made this instead. Bad luck to you, coolermaster.
I am happy with my nr200p with 3090 , 240mm aio. Gpu nevrr goes beyind 72c at 1445 rpm with slim intake fans on bottom (mesh magnetic filter is in the case covering bottom fans). With 3d printed feets rised 1.2cm more for better air flow. I want to ditch my arctic aio to phantom spirit 120se and use glass panel
This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Thermals will be insane
Same as NR200p Max minus the PS and water cooler
What the heck cooler master?! All you needed to do is add type C and enlarge a bit the case (+1-2cm length and same for width) to allow mounting enormous 40series gpus. It'd be perfect in this case.
This is just, wtf...
-price is going to be steep (most probably due to added riser) in comparison to og
- forcing AIO and vertical mount
- taking away flexibility of V1.
I wish they make the holes bigger on top. Its exhaust anyway. Not intake.
is there any difference between this and the MAX case.
“Kicked off the sFF craze”? What? Lol. The craze was far before it with Silverstone and many other manufacturers. Even before CM the dancase, fractal designs and a slew of others captivated the market but this gave everyone an entry point.
These changes to the Nr200P will be a welcome change!
NR200P was around $100. It will now be $150+ because of the pcie extension cable that will be required.
I will get the Lian Li A4-H20. Smaller, great performance and likely just as cheap if not cheaper!
Only vertically mounted GPU is a disappointement for me.
But third party AiOs on top is a good point for sure
The NR200 started the ITX build craze... really? Hardly
I put my build in stand-by waiting for this case and is a huge disappointment. All they needed to do was add USB-C, make the case taller to accomodate AIOs (changing the top bracket as well) and larger for the new monster GPUs. Now I either grab a V1 with increased price due to discontinuation or go back to square one since Dan Case also stopped selling the C4-SFX V1
Anyone know if or when we will ever see Trident Z Royal G.Skill Ram Kits those things sold like crack rocks lol ppl love them Shiny Silver/Gold ram Kits.
