No reason you can't use any of the exhausts as intakes or vice versa. I'm thinking I'd have intake on the bottom, out at the top and back - with a 240mm radiator in the top. There's mesh dust filters on all bar the rear fan mount according to the Coolermaster site. Granted it looks to be pretty open mesh so won't deal with small dust particles, but I guess you can put an extra filter in the gap between the mesh and the chassis if you wanted.

That was my plan until I noticed how close the GPU was to the bottom of the case, it will be difficult to get a positive pressure setup unless you're using a 2 slot GPU and I wouldn't personally use the ceiling for intake

I'll wait for some more videos and builds etc but for now I'm happy to have cancelled

Optimum Tech have just posted a video on YouTube too so looks like there will be a lot of videos on this case coming out over the next few days

White actually looks much better than I thought it would.

Think I'll stick with black though. Been down the white route before. The black fans will bother me and get replaced. The black cables will bother me and get replaced. I'll wind up buying a white AIO. And my next GPU will be white (always winds up costing more). Don't want to wind up down that route again. Costs too much

What a great case, im not sure i could justify the ncase m1 over this. Looking forward to some more videos of builds.

I was thinking Ncase M1, but the additional costs involved just arent worth it to me. I dont need the smallest alluminium case. The money saved can go towards the rest of the system.

Its a shame they couldn't have made it a couple of mm wider, i could then have then fitted my dark rock 4 cooler in there.. Looks like it will be a low profile cpu cooler then,

Don't do a buy, don't do a buy, wait for all the reviews...

Oh well, that went well...

Should be quite a few that fit without having to resort to an LP cooler. Scythe Fuma 2, for example. And that benches pretty close to a D15.

Thanks will take a look at that one, no rush at the moment, need a sfx power supply first.

Thanks again

No intake fans on the front? Just on the underneath?

PinkFloyd · 14 Jul 2020 at 19:36

*points at pictures of the case*

No. No fans on the front

So what's the chance of the non-P version being stocked? Would rather the extra cooling capability over the glass panels.

jsbombjack · 14 Jul 2020 at 20:24

P comes with vented and glass panels, so I guess you get the best of both options

I'm planning intake from the bottom and side (through an aio) with exhaust out the top for mine

Venomous · 14 Jul 2020 at 21:03

Will Overclockers be stocking the non-P non-glass version?

McPhee · 14 Jul 2020 at 22:29

There are a few differences between the two versions:

NR200 has the perforated side panel only, and ships with 1x 120mm fan and 1x 92mm fan. To vertically mount a GPU, a section of the rear panel needs to be removed.

NR200P has both the perforated and the glass panels. It ships with 2x 120mm fans and a riser cable. And it has normal PCI slots for mounting a GPU vertically.

The price difference in the US is $20.

This case looks very nice. I have a H1, but would rather use my own AIO instead of NZXT's. Might have to give this case a think.....

When does this case release?

Arcane · 15 Jul 2020 at 16:01

Looks a nice case. As I'm not 12 and don't want my PC to look like a prostitutes window box will you be stocking the vented version?

Haha, that choice of wording

As per multiple posts, the one OcUK have set for pre order includes both panels. So you can either have the ventilation or the prostitute window box

Arcane · 15 Jul 2020 at 16:55

Great, thanks. think I may invest in one for the living room, at under a hundred quid it's a relative bargain compared to the other unobtainium stuff.
