A Closer Look – Exterior
The Cooler Master MasterBox NR200P V2 is a pretty classic looking mini-ITX case, with a clean looking front panel design that features a solid cover, with a simple Cooler Master logo design cut into the front. My obvious concern here is airflow, but don’t worry, as the case uses a bottom to top airflow pattern rather than a front to back one.
Down the left side, there’s a large ventilated metal panel and since the GPU mounts vertically, it’ll be able to utilise the air intake here easily enough. However, there’s a tempered glass panel in the box too, which we’ll see in a moment.
Along the right side, you’ll be happy to see a high airflow mesh design, allowing heat to easily be exhausted from the case, and this will also ensure there’s breathing room for the PSU, which mounts on the side of the case.
Around the back, you’ll see the usual mini-ITX motherboard cut-out, as well as three expansion slots, so while this is mini-ITX, it’ll handle up to a triple slot GPU easily enough. There’s a removable plate above the slots too, which will give you more wiggle room to install larger expansion cards.
There’s also a power connector here, since the PSU mounts nearer the front of the case, this cable simply acts as a pass through to the PSU mount.
