    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    Built a desk out of plywood and iron pipes that fits the sentry nicely. I made the drawer height 3.5" and threw in 2 external 80mm fans connected via usb. Temps are the same as before when the case was on the floor. This setup makes wire management a breeze as there is only 1 power cable coming...

    SENTRY 2.0: Evolution of console-sized gaming PC case

    Is that 5C improvement on idle or under load?

    SENTRY 2.0: Evolution of console-sized gaming PC case

    What do you want to use the I9 9900k for? It's kinda a niche chip and you most likely can get away with whatever you want to do with it using a lower powered chip that's not gonna cook in the sentry.

    The next step after Mini ITX cases?

    You mean an upgrade-able laptop? Because when you make AIO pcs small form factor, it won't be any different than a laptop that you can upgrade i would imagine. You can also just get a skyreach mini or a4 and a portable 15" monitor which will be more portable than what you linked and also more...

    SENTRY 2.0: Evolution of console-sized gaming PC case

    Replace the top half of the case with a cardboard with some poked holes and see if it really makes a big difference; shouldn't be hard. That way you don't have to rely on your "feels".

    You should put another 1070 in there in sli. That would be neat.

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    You probably could, but it's most likely a low end card which kinda defeats the need for water cooling unless you mainly do cpu intensive tasks. I found some tiny radiators here which could let u use a bigger gpu: https://modmymods.com/radiators.html. Maybe u could some how mod a radiator on the...

    Have you tried you exact setup in another case? You might be getting high temps, but it might not be the case

    NCASE M1 vs. Phanteks Shift

    I wasn't talking about the shift... I'm sure the shift is a lot quiter than the m1 being a bigger case.

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    You might want to test your temps without the shielding and then with the shielding first to see if it makes a noticeable difference. I doubt that it would make any difference at all. I transferred my components(cput, gpu, cooler, ram) from my nzxt mid tower into the sentry and the temps are the...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N5C932M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This 17'' backpack works well. My sentry fits in it perfectly with a little bit of wiggle room left and also with enough room for a tablet sized monitor and my 60% keyboard along with cables. The bag doesn't...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    Just received my sentry today in Texas. Mine was the 3rd shipment, black color and was first shipped on 6/9/2017. I still have not gotten an update on the shipping since 6/12/2017 and the guy from the shipping company dropped it at my front door without even knocking. Good thing I caught it...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    I though they would at least require a signature before they can drop it off. I wouldn't trust my packages sitting outside my door without me knowing.
