Cougar MX200 Case Review

Inside the MX200

Each panel is attached to the chassis using two black thumbscrews.
The motherboard tray has a huge cutout for you to access the backplate of the CPU coolers without having to remove the motherboard from the case. Besides that, there are holes that allow to pass the cables behind it. There is a 0.8” (20 mm) clearance between the tray and the right panel.
The case supports ATX (and smaller form factors) motherboards.

The power supply is installed at the top of the case, with its fan facing down. You will be able to fit power supplies up to 9.4” (240 mm) deep, but it is not recommendable to install big and heavy power supplies in this kind of case.
