Damn these are just adding more to the cost of the case

The stock fans are fine. Not great, but not awful.

I run them at a low RPM, with the CPU cooler fan running faster as it's a quiet model. This results in decent temps and low noise. Swapping to Noctua fans would bring noise down further. But they're really expensive. Arctic P12s, while better than the stock fans, actually have a similar problem; they resonate at certain RPMs.

Try the case as-is. If you're budget conscious, it'd be daft to spend a fortune on fans before you've tried playing around with custom fan curves for the stock fans. Worth bearing in mind that this is the only case with this layout and support for fans in the top. So even at low RPMs, they're a bonus.

Yea will deffo try first. Anyone using a 92mm aio on this?

Can anyone tell me what size fans I will be able to fit in the bottom with a 3070 FE in the standard position? do I need thin ones or are normal 120s fine?

The stock fans seem ok to me, I can't hear them over the Big Shuriken 3

Normal fans are fine with a 2 slot card.

The 2070 Super in the bottom of mine is 2.5 slot card, and fans fit.

Yea I saw that this morning. Pretty unique...but wouldn't that basically be the same as running an open air case at this point? No dust protection.

Regardless it is still pretty rad looking.

Whats the best cooling setup in this case with a 3080 founders card. Does it need fans on the bottom or best on top?

b0rn2sk8 · 13 Jan 2021 at 20:33

Both top and bottom. If you only have 2 fans put them in the top as exhaust.

Would someone mind doing the following measurement of their NR200 build for me in millimetres?

Height from inside floor of case, to top edge of graphics card.

Thanks!

Hi, I’ve been following this thread for a while now while I’ve been waiting for stock to come in somewhere. Just thought I’d let the other people know who are in a similar situation that preorder is available on Amazon with stock coming in January 24th. Hope this helps.

kakarott · 14 Jan 2021 at 11:58

So which cooler are you guys going for?

Wegason · 14 Jan 2021 at 15:43

Yep. Given its almost always out of stock, had to buy.

Which GPU and CPU you going with?

Skilid · 15 Jan 2021 at 10:58

Does anyone have issues with using both front USB ports at the same time? If I have my dongle for my keyboard connected in one and then connect an external USB hard drive my keyboard will stop working but the hard drive will work. Both ports work individually. As soon as I disconnect the hard drive my keyboard starts working again.

I should finish my build (finally) in the next few days. Just waiting on the last few bits to get the RGB and fans working the way I want. Only taken me six months

Danosborne661 · 15 Jan 2021 at 16:07

Preordered mine today from Overclockers for a death to RGB build can't wait! Got the below in a NZXT H210 at the moment but looking forward to using the Raijintek Morpheus with the clear airflow this case gets from the bottom.

- Ryzen 3600 with Be quiet Dark Rock 4 - Black
- Gigabyte 1070 OC with Raijintek Morpheus II cooler - black
- 512gb NVME storage
- 5x Arctic P12 fans throughout (2x GPU, 2x CPU, 1x top exhaust)
- Seasonic M12 450w ATX PSU (I'll be making my own metal adapters... no velcro being used here)

Can anyone measure fom the top edge of your graphics card, to the floor of your NR200 for me please? I think there should be JUST enough room for the Raijintek Morpheus GPU cooler in there, looks like this person has done it with 25mm fans ok...
