Coolermaster N200 M-ATX Chassis Review

Total build time for the N200 was about 30 minutes, a little longer than the 20min it normally takes me to bolt one together but I did have to make some extensive modifications. As you can see the top 3.5″ drive bay has gone from under the 5.25″ drive bay, so too has the bottom hard drive bay and front 120mm fan and this has made a huge amount of space for our Corsair H100i cooler on the front. I only have a single pair of fans mounted on the radiator but you could very easily go for push-pull configuration here, I bet you could even go for a 120mm in the back or top and a 240mm in the front if you so desired to do a full custom loop or GPU cooling configuration.

Moving the HDD bays means I’ve lost a lot of HDD storage space so the system is limited to 2 x 2.5″ HDDs and for a chassis of this size I’ll take that as a fair trade-off any day. As you can see, the airflow from front to back is unobstructed and our GPU and CPU cooler are getting plenty of room to breath, I have every  confidence that an SLI / Crossfire rig would do well in here.

Cable management is great too and while I’ve taken a direct room for the GPU and some other cables, a quick cable tie keeps everything in check. If you wanted to run custom cables and more than you could route them even better but given that airflow is clear, everything is well spaced and of course there isn’t a side panel window, I think the build we have here today far exceeds what I was expecting to be capable from the N200.

All panels back in place and the chassis looks as neat as ever.
