Happy belated birthday Bindi! It's kind of insane the features and layouts budget cases get nowadays. Thanks for calling it an ITX case and not a SFF case, too many people are stuck with the notion that ITX = SFF.
This is the kind of case I do gladly jump to when somebody wants a low budget machine that doesn't take up much space. 1) Quick to build on 2) Included Fans 2) Cheapo ATX PSU
As a fairly established channel, I'm sure there's plenty more content that you can do to bring in views. But for people like me coming at this product months later, this type of in depth overview is invaluable, so thank you for doing these kinds of videos.
Love the case reviews and music…great job. I’m new to this hobby and I’m addicted to cases. I love imagining builds in certain cases and buying them. I can’t be the only one…I subbed for the cat tho, the kitty stole the show.
Agreed. Hence why 20L is the cut off point for SFF. I don't mind cases nearer 20L if they have really good space efficiency and hardware compatibilities like the NR200 which has excellent compatibility for the size and price.
@@GearSeekers I think I could have worded that better, if I am doing a ITX build (considering the added cost over ATX or M-ATX and decreased functionality/output) it will be for that sweet, sweet SFF. All that said, yours was a beautiful build with respectable thermals. My most recent build was in the Cougar QBX, now I want to go smaller!
It's basically the metallicgear neo mini. Just done a build in that case and the layout is pretty much identical. Can defo tell they're the same company.
DAMNN! First thing the case is amazing, Second our boy Nickk! said 4:26 which i am gonna cover roightt nev(that was funny), third 7:21 for u guys, coz we love you. The case value Oof Banger in every way. Nice Vidd. And we loiked itt.
Am I wrong to assume that they repurposed the MetallicGear Neo V2 ITX frame for this case? If so, I really liked that case for its design and form factor so this case would be sweet to get too. If only the MG Neo was easy to find here.
minor detail for some people, but i love that the front io is at the bottom of the case - very handy for me. I just ordered the NR600 and am kinda thinking this would have been a better choice, although with the GPU mounted in the normal position you would see all the cables inside
LMFAO. Did not expect Marty. How's it mesure up to the nzxt H210? Can't fit many of the new nvidia cards in it with a front rad, so looking for replacements. Oh and how quiet is that CM sfx psu? I heard the early models had real bad fan curves and were way too loud?
Just subscribed! Great content. I have the P300A and if I would do a new build I would definitely use the P200A. I would love to see the temps in a build with the scythe mugen 5 air cooler, a normal oriented gpu and a rear exhaust fan.
I'm a little confused on the AIO configuration. You have front panel fans as intake, and you want that side AIO pushing air out through the radiator, correct? You guys got me really interested in this case! 😀
The metallicgear neo mini and the P200A shares the same internal layout. It's smart for Phanteks to separate the build with small but distinct differences. By the way, I still use 3.5" HDD for backup purposes and the P200A optional 3.5" HDD cage is interesting for me. I live in a third world country, so Internet is at premium and cloud backup is as unreliable as our shitty Internet connection, so large backup is still a necessity.
I just built my first pc a month ago. This went under my radar and I wish I would have gotten it. I'm totally happy with my p360a but I dont even utilize all the space for the p360a. Might eventually try this case if my dad every wants a new pc.
14:35 new tp pc building, anyone know what's that cable box thingy called? the one that everything is connecting into the mini box instead of each other. thanks!
Hey Nick, I've got a suggestion this time: Since you're doing so many case reviews, wouldn't it be nice for the viewers to get some exact measurements of the case for better comparison (length, width, height, weight, and maybe - since many youtubers do it - : case volume)? Doesn't need to be told, would be enough to display as a fancy text. Have a nice day and I love you, too
Yeah but that's what the product page is for. Fancy text is called fancy text for a reason. It takes time to add it. Time that 1 person editing videos everyday doesn't have ;)
So I was very interested in this case, but it was literally 2cm too short cause I have a 330mm long graphics card and I use the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280, which would only fit in the front as the side only fits a 240mm radiator, so I went with another case (Thermaltake Core V21). Now today I built in this case after all, but for a friend and he uses the same cooler as I do. I was thinking to move the two ARGB fans in the front to the side as exhaust and put the 280 radiator in the front. But no, it doesn't work. The fans would fint inside the front panel, like you did here, and they are 140mm for this cooler of course, so that was nice, but the radiator wouldn't fit inside, cause of the fans on the side of the case, and with the fans there, it still didn't fit. They say you can fit two radiators, but that has to be only 2 240mm radiator (and they might say that in the manual), but it would be tight. But even one radiator in the front if it's 280mm, won't fit with just fans on the side panel. If this case had a subtitle to P200A, it would be "A few mm to short in every direction". The case wouldn't feel any bigger if they had taken this into consideration and made it fit. It's disappointing. And with a 3 slot graphics card, you also can't fit fans in the bottom (maybe thin ones). They could have other feet that would allow fans to be mounted underneath it. I don't know. Just frustrating. I have their P600s and Enthoo Pro M TG from before, and I love both those cases, so it's a bit sad seeing this one just barely not fit stuff I feel it should fit.
First thanks for the great content, you really go into a lot more detail than some other YT'rs and much love for Bindi! Quick question, what is the clearance like between that side radiator and the vertical GPU? Would it be at all possible to mount that cooler with the tubes at the bottom of the radiator?
More important question, can this case fit be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 50.5 CFM CPU Cooler and be quiet! Dark Power Pro 12 1500 W 80+ Titanium Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply ?
Heya, just watched Gamer Nexus AIO cooler position. Can you install the aio on the side with the tube on the bottom? Or is it gonna interfere with gpu/ any other components? (With gpu mounted horizontally not vertical)
If you install the GPU vertical you can't install the AIO in the right position. (the hose are in the same level with the GPU) I never tried the vertical bulid setup.
i get the temperatures with an aio....if you had an air cooler, wouldn't the cooler fight for air with the exhaust fans considering the fact that they are so close???
😍😍 🐈🐈happy birthday to Bindi~~ Nick, you’ve just added this case in my to-be PC 🤣 it’s interesting to see the PSU attached to the top of the case!! Here’s to more research about cases and ITX boards 🤯😎

Can you use a 240 rad in the front AND on the side at the same time?
Love the might car mods bit! Love those guys, that's awesome as I am assuming you are a fan!
Yeah I'm a big fan of them lol
Disrespected P200A
23:05 Bro this transition is INSANE!
Just so you know, gear seekers, this transition alone got me to sub.
Happy belated birthday Bindi! It's kind of insane the features and layouts budget cases get nowadays. Thanks for calling it an ITX case and not a SFF case, too many people are stuck with the notion that ITX = SFF.
Gear Seekers and MCM is the crossover we all need.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATE!
You make beautiful builds and your editing is on point!
It's the cat's birthday hahaha! Thanks!
MCM!!! You guys did Marty proud!
Case is a banger, the build is a banger, the video is a banger. Awesome work fams and Happy Birthday Bindi
The best thing in Nick' build videos,CINEMATIC MODE
This is the kind of case I do gladly jump to when somebody wants a low budget machine that doesn't take up much space.
1) Quick to build on
2) Included Fans
2) Cheapo ATX PSU
Exactly!

That's a bloody impressive case for the money. Sweet look building fams. Happy birthday Bindi!
love the MCM bit in the video! Love that channel
Really digging this video! Thanks! Also, HBD to the kitty-cat!
Happy birthday Bindi!!!🎊🎊🎂
Nick is like a little kid trying to get the attention of his school crush when he’s bragging about counting all the screws lol.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BINDI love the pc and cat content
Great video. Quite possibly my next case. Happy B'day Bindi!
ooohhh i love it when Gear Seekers do Phanteks cases, that Phanteks AIO also goes so well with the ROG motherboard ! Happy belated birthday Bindi !!
To change the metal sheet parts this way is a real nice idea.
And cool Video as always.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BINDY!!!!! Lots of love and nose boops
this is easily my fav new tech channel
Personally, 20L is the max size for a M-ITX case. Even that seems on the large size.
Agreed. Hence why 20L is the cut off point for SFF. I don't mind cases nearer 20L if they have really good space efficiency and hardware compatibilities like the NR200 which has excellent compatibility for the size and price.
If they're going to build a case this size it should at least take a m-ATX mother board.
ITX and SFF are not mutually exclusive. Slightly larger volume helps a ton with compatibility and temps
This is ITX no SFF. Big difference mate
@@GearSeekers I think I could have worded that better, if I am doing a ITX build (considering the added cost over ATX or M-ATX and decreased functionality/output) it will be for that sweet, sweet SFF.

Oh wow! Best episode yet mate! Love the crossover 🤣🤣
Great build fam and big happy bday bindi baby.
IN THE BIN
Happy birthday and happy building ! :)
PS: Nice review !
Happy Birthday Bindi!!! 🥳
That GPU bracket is really good feature.
Ah a Mighty Car Mods cameo!
Love the tunes! I also like those lian-li fans mixed with this case, they look great!
It's basically the metallicgear neo mini. Just done a build in that case and the layout is pretty much identical. Can defo tell they're the same company.
The intro theme is freaking sweet lololz
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
Indeed it is 🤩
That case got great price,HAPPY BIRTHDAY !
What a roomy ITX case. Phanteks you have done it again. Happy Birthday Bindi. ❤️
DAMNN! First thing the case is amazing, Second our boy Nickk! said 4:26 which i am gonna cover roightt nev(that was funny), third 7:21 for u guys, coz we love you.
The case value Oof Banger in every way.
Nice Vidd.
And we loiked itt.
Man I wish you dropped an album of the cinematic BGM, its so good.
Happy birthday Bindii! That build was sacrilegious imho.....
I love it. Might transfer my build in one and do a water build . Thanks for sharing.
Am I wrong to assume that they repurposed the MetallicGear Neo V2 ITX frame for this case? If so, I really liked that case for its design and form factor so this case would be sweet to get too. If only the MG Neo was easy to find here.
Yes almost the same.
The original is nicer to me in silver, looks more premium.
@@rossimessi1 I think so too
Since metallicgear is basically phanteks budget brand I would say yes.
minor detail for some people, but i love that the front io is at the bottom of the case - very handy for me. I just ordered the NR600 and am kinda thinking this would have been a better choice, although with the GPU mounted in the normal position you would see all the cables inside
Happy Birthday Bindi!
Nice case. Happy birthday!!!!
jesus this case look dam fire
Happy Birthday!!
I just love the cinematic mode
Happy birthday Bindi! 🍰
Looks like Phanteks improved the Neo Mini v2 (my current case, quite nice ITX enclosure)
Happy Birthday Bindi!!
LMFAO. Did not expect Marty.

I would love to see the temps in a build with the scythe mugen 5 air cooler, a normal oriented gpu and a rear exhaust fan.
Brilliant! My concern is the lack of active exhaust (in this layout)- would this prove an issue over longer gaming sessions / productivity?
No
@@GearSeekers Well alright then. Thanks for the response!
I would support this product but i already own a case i'm satisfied with, but for the record i watched your video regardless kuz its eye candy.
hb bindy, awesome vid x

I had to rewatch 23:05 several times, that was GODLY!
I love this case because of the airflow.
Fun Fact. The 5x SL120 fans in this toss-together build sum-cost twice as much as the case they're mounted in.
I still have my P300 case and it's been one of my favorite other than a Fractal design case I had.
That title. The thumbnail.
It is just...

I hate my life I was waiting for this but I just grabbed the Shift 2 phanteks are my guys for cases
Your choice was good, the shift 2 is sooo nice! Though I think an air-cooled gpu operates a lot cooler in the p200A.
I just really like the tower but for cooling I don't know what imma do yet
14:35 new tp pc building, anyone know what's that cable box thingy called? the one that everything is connecting into the mini box instead of each other. thanks!
1:08 a mighty car mods refrence in a tech video?! never seen that before! haha

Im in love with this pc case
HBD Bindi!
im pretty sure the gpu temps would be even better with a standard mount, not vertical. but tis case looks great.
Happy (belated) birthday kitteh!
Haapy birthday nick💖❤💥
planning to get this case any tips on the fans configuration? Other than that it is a great review!
Your vids are so damn good. You are as hilarious as you are informative.
Will you be able to put 3 120mm fans at the bottom if you put the front fans in front of the front panel?
$69 ITX case? NIce Phanteks

compare with metallic gear neo mini v2 pls
Are the front fans 120mm or 140mm? Keen to understand if you can mount bigger fans on the front for a 280mm AIO support
120 but you can fit 140s
The front can do 280 or 240 rad according to the specsheet
First thanks for the great content, you really go into a lot more detail than some other YT'rs and much love for Bindi! Quick question, what is the clearance like between that side radiator and the vertical GPU? Would it be at all possible to mount that cooler with the tubes at the bottom of the radiator?

What did you use for the RGB? I still can’t seem to find out what to use for these Phanteks fans.
Can you put a 140mm infront of the case and still close the mesh front panel?
Rog strix lc 240 white edition and black cpu cooler review please
Just another overpriced 240mm aio
@@592Johno this lol
happy birthday Bindy!

RAM RGB controlled by front panel RGB controller?
Heya, just watched Gamer Nexus AIO cooler position. Can you install the aio on the side with the tube on the bottom? Or is it gonna interfere with gpu/ any other components? (With gpu mounted horizontally not vertical)

much better than evolv itx, iv just moved from that to nr200p though. nr200p ftw
i get the temperatures with an aio....if you had an air cooler, wouldn't the cooler fight for air with the exhaust fans considering the fact that they are so close???
What is the best between Meshlicious and Phanteks P200A ? ( i would like to put a 3080/3090 in my future ITX build )
😍😍 🐈🐈happy birthday to Bindi~~
Nick, you’ve just added this case in my to-be PC 🤣 it’s interesting to see the PSU attached to the top of the case!! Here’s to more research about cases and ITX boards 🤯😎
psu at the top was normal many years ago, it makes more sense at bottom so it sucks cold air in.
will 3.5 slot card fit? it does seem so but cannot find any review :(
Looks a bit big for an ITX case, how many litres?
This needs an RGB Honda badge 😂
