    Cooler Master NR200 Case with mATX B560M-H

    Hi Gyus,
    I want to upgrade my rig with new components, and I want to have a minimal place since the case is going to be in the living room.
    So I though on buying the Cooler Master Case NR200 which according to the brochures is fits for Mini ATX MB…BUT is you go to the Cooler Master website you can see that this case support up to 244x226 maximum size for MB.
    so my question is will it fit? probably it will not be perfectly and will require some adjustment but this is something I will take care of, just want to know if it even possible.
    Did someone is actually try this and can share some pics/thoughts/insights?

    thanks in advance.

    Here you can see the official cooler master NR200 website and under specification you can see that it state that this is possible:

    The MasterBox NR200 takes all of the features found in a core performance ATX chassis and efficiently utilizes them in a space less than half the volume. Every feature is thoughtfully laid out in the 18-liter case to maximize component compatibility, ease of use, and thermal efficiency. Open ventilation and multiple fan mounts bring airflow where it’s needed, while generous watercooling and aircooling clearances allow the fitment of coolers that can take advantage of all the airflow. Ample clearance for long, triple-slot graphics cards means no sacrifices are needed in GPU power to take advantage of small form factor sizing. The frame is wrapped in a sleek and tasteful steel chassis that blends in perfectly on top of desk.

    Find a MB that is 100% compatible now or you will be looking for one later when the board gets shorted out by not being mounted correctly.

        It doesn`t make any difference, the mounting points must match up exactly with where the screws go through the MB and likewise the I/O plate must match up exactly with the back of the case or that can short out as well.

        Do you want us to tell you that because the MB is small enough to fit inside the case everything will be alright, it isn’t going to happen, contact CM customer support and ask them, if they say it will be ok get them to put it in an email to cover yourself.

          I know i can do this but this is what i’m here for, to see if anyone has actually try this…
          The screw pattern of mATX will be the same between each MB, this is a Standard… But you right that we can’t know if this specific case has the same pattern… Again, this is what I’m here for …

          Also moving standoff form place to place is my least worries…

            Why waste time and potentially a fair bit of money, ask CM or play Russian Roulette, your choice, no one here will advise you to ignore what the CM MB list is telling you.
