Pros & Cons
Pros
- ✓ Clears 330mm graphics cards horizontally, including RTX 5080 and RX 9070 XT length classes
- ✓ 18.25L footprint fits a full desktop build in roughly a third of an ATX tower's volume
- ✓ Six fan mounts plus 165mm CPU cooler clearance for a fully air-cooled Mini-ITX rig
- ✓ Removable side bracket accepts a 240mm or 280mm radiator without stripping the case
Cons
- ✗ SFX-only power supply bay; standard ATX units will not physically fit
- ✗ Mini-ITX motherboards only, so no micro-ATX or ATX upgrade path later
- ✗ Hard 330mm GPU ceiling rules out the longest triple-fan flagship cards
- ✗ 165mm cooler limit excludes most full-height dual-tower air coolers
Manufacturer description
The Cooler Master NR200P is a small form factor chassis that combines space-saving efficiency with cooling capabilities normally found on much larger ATX chassis. 280mm radiator support and 7 possible fan mounting provide a multitude of cooling options whether using water or air. The choice of tempered glass side panel or vented panel alongside the inclusion of a PCI Riser cable make the NR200P one of the most flexible small form factor chassis out there.
