Ever thought about designing your own SFF case? You got the experience for sure. It would basically name itself - Optimum Case.
With different titles such as :
*optimum prime
*The OPTIMUM
Etc.
I like the idea.
This comment is underrated
Doing this is extremely difficult due to tooling cost for production ($200K+). He'd need to be approached by an existing case manufacturer probably... Would be cool though. There is precedent: the O11 and Der8auer.
I would love that idea. I am looking for a mini ITX build with massive cooling ccapaity yet there doesen't really seem to exist one right now. I would like to see a case designed by one who knows a lot about mini itx cases.
PC component has a fixed formfactor but I am sure a mini itx build ccould be a lot more space effiient that what we currently have. I mean, just look at this build in this video, there is still a ton of empty space that isn't really needed for anything. I wonder what the most spaccce effiient pcc case would looklike without redesigning the entire PC market :D
I’m literally in the process of building this! It’s been 3 months and 3 versions in the making lol. I’m gonna name it “sunk cost” when I’m done.
cool, can you share the results?
I'd love to see your build 😊
The NR200 keeps on delivering for it's price tag
Yep, cooler master really nailed it in the itx category.
Totally, I absolutely adore mine. The only thing that I think I'd change is having more room up top vs bottom, in order to fit a rad and fans up there.
The only thing this case needs is the skirt so you can place the fans in the underside when using the dual rad setup. That changes everything!
@@CESAR_H_ARIAS i 3d printed one of these look online there are 3d models
@@jamesharnish650 yes, me too. Thats why i said that. Im using a white case and 3dprinted it using black color. It looks amazing
Production quality on your videos is top notch as always man. Insane quality, insane build.
Been waiting for this vid for so long thanks.
Thanks for the volume warning, I really appreciate that you included it, nice touch.
This is why we love you, and this channel! Insane is the only word that comes to mind!
Another great video Ali, really dig your aesthetic style and small form factor choices.
Yes! I have been waiting for this video for so long
1m subs when??? This guy has the cleanest setups and vids!
This man is consistent asf
god yes I have been waiting for an optimum tech NR200 build forever now like this
Our SFF madman attacks again! Insane build.
This is EPIC, I want to get on your level bro. Good shit 👏
How many finger cuts you get building this lol
Lol too many
@@optimumtech but how many?
@@nurenzayyan4825 over 9000
He can't even count
His finger is .1 inch shorter now
I haven't even seen the video yet and I'm already satisfied.
But how heavy is it? This system is so dense!
They say it has created a singularity there
It doesn't matter if you build it just to sit there. It's a really easy size and shape to lift.
You would not have wanted to mount a stand to my 48 inch Oled and put it in place on your own, like I did.
I had a 20lb subwoofer which I placed on stands at my head level exactly in place on free standing halved squash balls. I am not particularly strong, but where there is a will there is a way.
Something this size at waist height would have been a breeze.
Love it!!! very nice clean build
i love all the NR200 builds, great case for the price and easy(ish) to work in :)
The NR200 really is a blessing, finally a more affordable (unless you watercool everything lol) and good ITX Case. Although I would have liked it a bit smaller.
I was waiting for this
I love your videos. I was thinking about doing this and love how you did it. Guess it's time to retire the d5 for a pump block combo.
I'd be interested in a follow up video where you remove the top radiator to see how it affects the temperatures, I think having two exhaust fans at the top over the extra radiator might result in better temps.
Great video as always.
I have this case and yet to build. Thanks for the inspo!
Have fun bro. Finished my first ever sff last week with this case. It's easy to build in but I had to buy some cable mod PSU cables because the Silverstone are stiff as hell
Super easy to build in, never built a PC before and I didn’t have any issue with it!
@@johnb2001jb thanks!
@@johnb2001jb NICE
Awesome / Intense!! Thumbs up!!
Sick build
His body right?
@@nfaller89 why not both?
I'm all for full/ultra/super tower cases bit i still watch your sff builds because i really like your style.
Can't wait for the review and build in the new NR200P Max!
Lovely build as always! I think the best setup for this case is to use two radiators, one in the bottom and one in the top, with a vertically mounted gpu. It's a bit harder to fit, but the airflow is more logical and there are less components blocking the fans. You can also fit a thicker radiator in the bottom. I went for this in my own build and the temps are phenomenal with gpu (3080) never going above 54 C.
Do you have any photos of this build? I'm contemplating exactly this combination, but haven't seen many people try it
Can't wait for the NR200P max.
mad respect
Fantastic video! My brother recently got a NR200P and it looks amazing! I might get a white one and do a water cooled setup like you did several months ago.
What would we do without this channel...
You know it's a good day when there's an upload from Optimum Tech!
I used the same EKWB FE Special edition block on my 3080 Ti founders too. LOVE IT!
The EK Fe blocks are special bits of engineering.
Man idk why but your videos didnt show up in my feed as usual in the past, but the videos you made are as great as always and I hate TH-cam for doing that.
Ooh Baby, a Triple!
Great video!
Amazing work!
I recently build my PC in a NR200P. It was my first SFF build and it was a 3090FE and a 5950x of all things and there were some challanges. First challange...the cables. I had to use the SFX-L mounting (meaning 1 slim fan on the top), otherwise the cables would block the rear Fan of the 3090FE. And even then i had to tuck them REALLY tight.
Then there was the Glacierwater 280 AIO from Alpenföhn. It has one of the most silent Pumps out there. But the Radiator has a little more length then usual. In order to put it in i had to unscrew the entie front of the case. After it is in there i can screw in the front again and it fits.
I also used the NZXT-Fan Controller so i can control each type of Fan individually.
I just started on mini itx, rocking a strix x570-i with 5600x and 6800xt, for now I' using a fuma 2 inside the nr200p and just received a second hand masterliquid 240 pro, going to compare both cooler and im also thinking on deshrouding the reddevil and putting 2 25mm fans on the bottom, but I've also got 2 slim ones to test out! thanks for the amazing content!
I was wondering, have you ever done a super compact full build guide (real time) like this one? Maybe not so complex, but it would be great to see the full process!
you're one of the few that have done videos on this case. I really want to see a full loop with the vertical GPU mount, and a ultra thick rad on the bottom. i have this case and i really want to watercool my pc in this way but i want to see if it can be done before i buy all the parts.
Very COOL Pc build
Hey Ali 👋 CM announced the NR200P Max with a 280 aio mounted at the top, this one would probably be easier to build with but I haven’t seen the dimensions of the case, its probably a little bit taller! Great video as always ✅
Just got my parts to build my dual-rad setup in my NR200 and this was inspiring to see 🥰🤯🥳🎉👍❤️! My setup is an R9 5900x & RTX3080Ti. Should see a performance numb over my Dual-Rad N-Case M1 w/ R9 3900x & Asus TUF RTX3080 🥰❤️🤯🥳🎉! Thanks for the OTT setups Ali which help us make our PC dreams come true. BTW, you look like you live in an Inner-West Sydney apartment 🤔.
Horrendously impractical. I approve!
That poor little fan being smothered by the GPU block, those tiny little fans on the top rad. You're absolutely right that you'd get better results with fewer rads and cleaner airflow. I'd go so far as to say that you could probably get better results using just one rad and an overwhelmingly positive pressure configuration.
Anyway, it's still fun to see crazy stuff like this - and I'm still loving that GPU block.
I'd like to see you clean the dust out this case on one year from July 17, 2021. That one thing I don't see your cover, dust accumulation in your tight builds. This is your most impressive build to date. The only thing I would change is extend the fillport all the way to the case panel so you could fill it without removing the panel and as an added bonus it would serve as your reservoir.
I'd look into a short pump/res ddc combo unit on top of the GPU in this case. I didn't do a top rad, but I did do the side and bottom, and an ek DDC w/ a tube res combo unit is comfortably sitting on top of the GPU at the rear of the case. Works great. You could even screw it in to the back vs taping it onto the GPU if you don't like that. And if it short, it won't even interfere with the top panel rad if you're nuts.
It's obviously the optimum triple-rad build!
For the top rad in my build I dremeled the top cover to remove those tiny edges and used one of the fan grills on the fan over the psu and I had no issues
Love that lil toaster
Now that's a poggers build
Just sick! I would be happy to be able to do double RAD.
Gotta love that case...
It bothers me that no one ever comments on how positively YOKED Ali is. Fitness vlog!
i'm currently building a mix between this one and the watercooled NR200P you did a while back but with only two 240 rads on top and bottom on a push config, with enough clearance for airflow thanks to 3D printing.
(the fans for the lower rad are actually outside under the case hidden by a 3d printed skirt/feet combo so that there's enough clearance between GPU waterblock & rad for airflow, and the whole top rad/fans is hidden at the same place as in the video, but the whole top plate has been raised 3cm thanks to 3dprinted parts.)
After seeing this video, I kinda wanna try this myself on my own NR200 now...
cant wait to try an itx build one day. btw what monitor arm do you use for your floating setup?
So you could in theory make a dual rad setup WITH the glass panel in the nr200p? Now that would be interesting. I would love to see you do that if you find the time :)
Yeah this Koolance fittings saved my build. Push-pull on Black ice nemesis gtx 360 in o11 dynamic xl with distro plate
i'd love a video going over controlling fan and pump speeds to get the best compromise between noise and performance
Second this!
He’s talked about it before but not an entire video dedicated to it. Pretty much he says adding a coolant temp sensor to the loop and setting the fans to ramp up when the coolant temp gets above a certain threshold.
I’m rocking a dual 240mm rad setup in my NR200. It handles my 5900x and 3080 FTW3 nicely, however water temps do get decently high on some games
I was just looking to find a good video on this.
You can actually mod the case so you flip the orientation so you can have the clearance for a top radiator.
Pretty easy probably going to do that to my newest build.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the NR200P MAX Ali.
I have this same case but just the 1 rad 280 mm for the cpu. This case is legit AF for the price. Properly tuned you can get great performance w/ near silence.
We want a full review of Nouvolo Aquanaut
This is complete madness. As if double radiator wasn't crazy enough, Ali decides to pack 3 into a true ITX case. Insane in the membrane.
I actually dremeled the back of my NR200P to fit the Iceman reservoir for the NCase M1. Routing the tubes were... interesting and challenging. Especially since I was dumb enough to use 15.9/11.1mm tubing for my first custom watercooled pc.
Running a dual rad setup comprised of an Alphacool Nexxxos ST30 V2 and an XSPC TX240.
A custom 3D printed top hat exists for the NR200P to fit a 30mm thick radiator though. Maybe one day I'll give it a try
Sick build dude….
Guys I called it at the beginning of the year and now he did it. Absolut crazy man.
So my prediction for the next setup will be a full underwater covered liquid miniITX PC like the one from Der8auer.
Change my mind
Radiator count, sizing, thickness and fin density all come with diminishing returns, I believe the same to be true for fans.
Still, an awesome build and it's always refreshing to witness what's possible 👌👌
Looks beautiful, though one would imagine there really is little point in making it so hard for the fans to actually move cool air through the radiators to bleed the heat away. It will probably run much more smoothly and have fans and pumps and M2 SSD live longer with only 2 rads, spaced out decently and without very low profile. I actually have in a closet somewhere an extremely thin Scythe fan I got for free but it can only produce enough pressure for radiator use in a noisy 2,000 RPM.
next, dual rad meshlicious!
This is COMPACT
hell yea i so wanna do this with my nr200
if I remember correctly, Scythe has a 12mm fan that would probably be a perfect replacement for those 15mm A12x15s on the top rad. cooling might not be as good as those Noctua fans, but they'll still be able to move air.
Thank you for not shoving the word "Ultimate" into the title. Most overused word in tech YT ever.
amazing
Did a build with a top and bottom rad (both 240 slim) in the nr 200p in Jan21. Ended with a third 90 mm rad on the side just to keep the glass panel. I can confirm its a pain in the a** to do this but it looks awesome how dense it is.
1am uploads? I hope you're paying yourself overtime 😂
Damn what a nice build, thank you for trying, would have been interesting to see tests removing the top rad and prove your claims, thank you for this great build though.
Im glad you are having all of the same problems i am having
custom waterblock would be sick!
I hope Cooler Master sends you one of the new colored NR200 P for this sweet build.
Really wonder if there is any place one can buy such cool itx pc as pre-built or custom-built. For someone who has never built a pc before, this is a dream setup!
Great Vedio, I think this build needs Phanteks P200A mini itx case , it will give u a room for more coolant also extra 3 of 120mm fans one on the rear and 2 on front side
Hey Ali great video! I just bought Ncase M1 (switching from NZXT h210i) because I fell in love with it after watching your videos. I have a question for you. I have an NZXT x53 cooler and I'm gonna mount it on the side for now (planning on doing a custom loop setup in the future) and I'm wondering if I should set it up as an exhaust or intake? The GPU is Nvidia Rtx 3070 FE. Should I do bottom intake and top exhaust or vice versa? I don't want to choke my GPU. Thanks for the great inspiration!
Preface: Not throwing shade at OT, just wanted to share my experience!
I would recommend AGAINST the barrow pumpblock. I ordered one for amd and it managed to get air trapped between the coldplate and the pump, killing the DDC and causing constant thermal issues with my SSUPD build.
kinda funny to see, now that Cooler Master showed off a new version of the NR200!
sauces? do you know what the updated version will bring?

Saw this on r/sffpc the other day, basically limited Collor editions which are already available for preorder on www.cmstore.eu/mini-itx/ and a MAX version with a 850W PSU, a topmounted 280mm AIO and a PCI-e 4.0 riser!
@@BigDom1002 that swivel hinge for the GPU is so nice!!
@@sushimshah2896 It is, though from the pictures it seems to only support vertically mounted GPUs in that version!
@@BigDom1002 thanks for the pre-order link, snagged an orange one
insane!
Impossible is not in your dictionary. The N200 is just so versatile.
A TH-cam channel called Machines & more actually goes over a slightly better method of putting a top rad that offers a bit more clearance maybe? For anyone interested in this type of configuration. Currently run this set up minutes the third side radiator and I can confirm it was extremely difficult filing down the some of the parts for that top radiator to fit. Nicely done
This is why an SFF case + and external radiator like a Watercool Mo-Ra is just a better solution for SFF/max cooling. The desk footprint is still way lower than an ATX case and you can put the SFF case on the desk and the Mo-Ra somewhere out of sight. It is the way.
If you ask me, the NR200 is the best mass-market case that has ever existed.
It would be really cool if you reviewed the sama im01 case it just came back in stock on newegg. It is basically a nr200 only 2 cm taller but it fits a matx motherboard and an atx psu!
I want to see the dual 280 radiator setup in the Winter One.
Yes,yes,yes
He did it so we don't have to thx m8.
