Good to know. Im going to go with 1300rpm noctuas on the top then. 1600rpm 92mm fan on the rear and 2x 1700 rpm noctua on the side should provide a good balance on the 2 in vs 3 out and sort out the whiring at the same time.

Just had my shipping notification too!! Christmas truly has come early
Yay, mine has too!
Just woke up from my nap and checked my emails, my black NR200P it is indeed on the way! Definitely worth the wait

Mine is on its way. Quite excited to do my first SFF build, and my son will be excited that his birthday/Christmas present is becoming a reality

I would get a weird humming/resonance at the 1000-1200 rpm from one of the fans. Oddly enough if I use the fan on my CPU cooler it doesnt get the resonance. I think it was just not happy to be hanging face down. The other 120mm fan didn't make the resonance in any orientation. Regardless, replaced them with noctuas.
Glad to hear that people who ordered early are getting theirs at last, mine is also on the way but only ordered a couple weeks ago
I still need to find a 5600x from somewhere but might just put my current system in it for now and wait till I can get the ryzen.
Out of interest what cases are people moving from? I’m personally coming from a NZXT H1 after the fire fiasco and also thermal reasoning/future proofing. I don’t like the fact I can’t use my own psu either. I love the form factor though but with everything, it has to compromise somewhere.

I'm trying to build my first system for about eight years, so I'm coming from a Fractal Design R4 with a 3570k and a HD7970!
Now I just need to find a CPU (5600x), GPU (3070) and PSU (Corsair SF750, I hope)...
I'll have something up and running in January if I'm lucky.

I'm moving from one of these.. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/silverstone-sst-sg05bb-lite-sugo-usb-3.0-black-ca-351-sv.html
Currently got a Ryzen 5 3600 in it, but can't fit in a Noctua NH-U9S I have lying around. Under full load the stock cooler isn't doing a great job of keeping it cool. Also, if my 3080 ever turns up, I'll relegate my old 2070 to this as it also wouldn't fit in the old case.
Guys... Abit of a nightmare and need some advice. Finally managed to get an NR200 ordered and by chance a gigbyte 3080 aorus xtreme just popped up and through my honed reflex I managed to beat all the scalping bots to it
It turns out the card is absolutely MASSIVE! Will it actually fit in the NR200? I'm looking into it now looks like it's a 4 slot wide??

Oof I've had that problem too with my main rig. I'm building a custom loop in it, and whenever stock comes up I need to check the card with waterblock will fit next to my pump. But by then it's sold out. Yay
I feel like someone ***** with me.. I'm building a new PC and the two things I wanted most (NR200 +3080) BOTH became available within 24hr and I might potentially need to pick one or the other.
That is basically my 2020.

@TG2238 few pages back someone asked this exact question. They also bought it JUST because it was available without checking dims lol. Understand how that goes.
Ah thank you! Sounds like it's going to be a fairly involving build!

But it sounds like it’s possible. So that’s something.
Out for delivery today! Second time lately I’ve had a Saturday delivery without paying for it. Wonder if that’s OCUKs doing or DPD trying to not fill their warehouses.
Looks like the delivery was expedited to a Saturday delivery, getting my NR200P today!
Still missing a 5600x but will just move my old system into it for now I think.
edit: just saw your message Andrew, yes could be DPD wanting to clear stock.

I decided I couldn't wait last night and transplanted my build into the NR200. I went with:
AMD Ryzen 5900X
Nvidia RTX 3080 Founders Edition
32GB Cricual Ballistix 3600 C16 RGB
Asus X570-I
Corsair SF750W PSU
1TB PCI-E 4.0 NVME
256GB PCI-E 3.0 NVME
1TB SATA SSD
256GB SATA SSD
Sythe Mugen 5 Cooler
Lian Li Uni fans all round (5 total)
Here is the view as I see it from my desk:
Side view with glass on
Side view with glass off.
Its a bit of a rats nest at the front, even with the reduced cabling from the Lian Li fans. Once I got the 8 pin and 24 pin manged correctly it was getting pretty late so I went with the 'stuff it into a gap' approach and I can't actually see it from where I sit. I'll sort it out when I get round to buying a proper 12 pin cable for the GPU.
There is a small scratch on the corner of my front panel which is just out of shot of the first image. It's not as bad as someone else posted in here but I'll see what CM have to say about it. Overall I am happy with it though.
