    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    I recently added mini jack socket into my Sentry. It's standart front panel headphone socket from old pc and needed to file down a little bit with a sandpaper. After that socket nicely fits into any Sentry back hole. I hope, It will be helpful for someone.

    I've just received my white sentry. Despite of russian post service the box is an excelent condition and hasn't any external damage(y) But when I opened it i found a big gap between front panel and right side panel. Is it normal edge finish?

    Standart Beyerdynamic DT770 pro has 250 Ohm, special version for drummers has 80 Ohm. Also, I don't think that parameters and components of your FiiO E17 is much better than at "premium" motherboards: AD8397 op amp for headphones and WM8740 DAC. But if we are speaking about serious external DACs...

    Yep, there's a lot of variants to mount a jack into a sentry, but it's more convenient to choose the one when your sentry is located at your work table;)

    It's creepy and hilarious at the same time :ROFLMAO: I like the way blue usb ports look at front panel of a white sentry and it's unnecessary to sacrifice this ports for frankenstein adapter. As I see the best place to mount headphones jack actually settles at the back of case in holes for wifi...

    Yeap, I'm a happy owner of one white sentry from the second week 150 units batch:cool: Now I'm thinking about jack position: front panel also looks nice for replacing a high quality 1/4" jack. And of coarse I'll post modding results here. I've never used it before. There are some other options...

    While we all are waiting for the Sentry, I want to add a few words about sound in this case. I suppose that a majority of builders will use it for gaming with headphones and without external sound card, but the case hasn't a front audio panel. It's not a big deal, you will say, every mobo has a...

    Thanks for this consistent test! It's a pity you couldn't test C7, because I use it in open stand and it performs well, so I wonder to know how it will interfere with sentry vent holes. Guys, try to use middle or high end mobos with C7. Cheap mobos go with tall aluminium capacitors about 8 mm...

    Cryorig will provide free AM4 upgrade kit, so it will be possible to use C7 with X300 mobos.

    My bad, when i said "close campaign" i didn't mean "delete indiegogo page" or something like it. I just wondered about earlier start of the first batch production (after sold out of this option). Thanks to your explanation picture and your comment my question is obsolete now. Thanks for your...

    Guys, is there any possibility that first batch production will start earlier because of single black and white cases will be sold out ?
