Hi guys. Looking to build a new rig for a friend but wanted to confirm that the CM NR200 fits most 3070 if not all based on some of the build videos I’ve seen.

Anybody using this case can comment if they’ve upgraded to 3000 series cards?

Friend has very specific requirements hence casing unfortunately is a hard one.

I did a detailed YouTube 4 part build (boring for most but there was a strong request to go into a lot of detail). In the build I used the Gigabyte RTX 3080 Eagle OC which is one of the biggest GPU's. It just about fits in the vertical orientation but since your not looking at the NR200P then its very easily mounted via the opening on the front of the case.

Take a look at the build to get more details. I am in the process of creating a follow up video to talk about troubleshooting and thermals that might be of interest.

You can always opt for a two-fan RTX 3070 like the FE or Asus KO, which would give you more space to work with.

Oh didn’t know there’s a P variant of the casing.

Thanks so much for sharing! Nicely made videos. Seems like there are actually quite a number of users of this case.

Yes,.. to my surprise I have had more than 6K hits on YouTube on this movie length build! This just goes to show that feedback from users is very important. Making a video that shows only highlights is not enough for a lot of users,...

just recently built in it and from the research I did during building should be no problem to fit most (if not all) of the AIBs RTX 3000 series.

Have yet to use the RTX 3070/80 myself, as still deciding between amd's 6800 and nvidia 3000

i'll share some pics of my build in the NR200 thread
