With this new release they have created some serious competition for the Ncase M1 and the entire experience here has been almost flawless. Really the only thing that is kind of a concern for me when having this case on my desk is the airflow, because it’s exhausting everything from the side, which means that when it’s on my right side I can feel all that airflow. It would’ve served as the more flexible version that still accommodated horizontal GPU configurations (a huge complaint about the new NR200P V2, judging by internet comments)—and saved a little extra cash for those who didn’t want the option of a tempered glass panel.

And then putting it to exhaust was a big mistake, since as you can see the GPU temperature really just maxed out there.

The side panels can pop off very easily on their own if you put too much pressure on them with cable mess on the right side.And by the way, they both come with a 92mm fan that you can mount at the back in case you are not using the vertical PCIe slots.
