Has a consensus been reached on what is the best cooler for AM4 in Sentry?

222Rn, where you able to figure out if there is any reason to go for ASRock Fatal1ty X370 Gaming-ITX/ac?

Did anyone try GTX 1070 Aero from MSI? This review http://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/msi-geforce-gtx-1070-aero-itx-oc-review,1.html suggests that it is better than the founders edition and cheaper at the same time.

Fatal1ty X370 Gaming-ITX/ac looks awesome, good wifi, ethernet, nice VRMs, best audio. Anyone has any hints how to get them early? I'm tired of waiting.

Did you get the 1080ti blower card or only the blower itself? If you got only the blower, how easy was it to mount?

Do you think you'll be able to cool non-blower 1080ti in Sentry?

Sentry was marketed as a case that is build for mobile road-warrior use. If this cooler is also targeting Sentry bankers, it would be nice to make it reliable in mobile setting.

Those building Senty for mobile use, be aware that this board does NOT have integrated WiFi.

Given all the feedback from people who already tried Ryzen, it gets a substantial boost (>10%) from good memory, without more power consumption from the CPU. It seems that so far, TridentZ has best memory around(with samsung b-dies). Do you think it will fit?

Given that all Mini-ITX that we know so far either lack M.2 or lack Wifi, I guess I'll use something like https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-Motherboard-4-Pin-Header-USBMBADAPT/dp/B000IV6S9S to plug USB Wifi-adapter to internal USB header.

As a to-be-owner of Sentry I feel perfectly comfortable paying 146$ (+ shipping) for a coller that out-perfroms others while being small.

New mITX Motherboard from Gigabyte: Has wifi. Doesn't seem to have m.2.

Could you please add option "not decided yet between ryzen and kaby lake"? I'm waiting to see a good mini-itx board with onboard wifi. Additionally, I'm waiting to see how does ryzen perform in ~2 month when all bios, microcode and OS patches are out.

> X370? Isn't this supposed to be X300? That's indeed X370. Biostar managed to fit it into Mini-ITX.
