    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    I was moving my PC recently and it accidently got knocked over. The Pc is fine, the case is fine, but one of the plastic tabs on the side cracked. I'm looking for a local replacement for this part -- however I'm not sure what to look for. Is there some formal spec or name of the part I can use...

    SENTRY 2.0: Evolution of console-sized gaming PC case

    Out of curiosity, has anyone tried the J-Hacks m2426 in a Sentry case? If so I would love your feedback on how it worked in the Sentry case. I'm finally swapping out the power supply in my Sentry 1.0 and was thinking about custom cables when I came across the J-Hacks in another forum.

    Looks good to me, but check the manual pg 22 to be sure. http://zaber.com.pl/sentry/manual.pdf I have a Zotac 1060 AMP which is a compact card, but slightly larger (210mm x 128mm ) than your Gigabyte 1660 Super (170mm x 121.3mm), and it fits my Sentry 1.1 just fine. Let us know how it goes.

    Slightly off topic and speculative, but I look forward to the day (and the designs) that are capable that desktop metal 3d printing would enable. http://newatlas.com/desktop-metal-3d-printing/50654/ Imagine being able to 3D print your own low profile cpu cooler. As the kids say, what a time to...

    I don't plan to overclock, however the guy who did my delid sent before/after stats of my CPU. He did a slight overclock to 4.5Ghz on a test bench using the ASROCK Z170OCF motherboard.

    JISAKU_TARO's SENTRY BUILD So I put my case together a week or so ago, but wanted to share a detailed update. My goals for this build were quiet and cool. Let's see how I do. I had been undecided about Ryzen vs Kaby Lake but when the SENTRY case finally showed up I decided that I was sick of...

    That is very interesting. What are your other specs? CPU, motherboard, CPU Cooler, Power supply?

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    I haven't tested the Silverstone PSU under load, but it is definitely the noisiest part of my build, and I've been thinking hard about replacing it. I certainly wouldn't recommend it at this point. When seated at arms length from the Sentry, I can hear the the PSU and the fan has kind of a...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    So over the weekend I finally got my SENTRY put together. It was a great, fun experience and I couldn't be happier with the case. I'll do a full build post later but for now I'll just post a couple teaser photos of the case in action. Specs: I haven't done benchmarks or anything yet. I...

    Is there a BIOS error code showing in the lower right side of the screen during boot (looks like A2, A3, B2, etc.)?? If you see the error code it might help you debug the issue. I recently was trying a new GPU (Zotac 1060 amp!) with a *really* old motherboard, the Zotac H77-ITX Wifi B series...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    For those of you using LP53 and Noctua NF-A9x14, how are you attaching the fan to the LP53? and do you have any pictures? I've read about rubber bands, cable ties, and I saw a pic of something that looked like wire. I would especially appreciate any close up photos as well. I have a...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    Okay, it finally arrived! After what had to be my longest day at the office ever, on a super muggy and wet day, I got home to find my Sentry. It shipped June 9, left Warsaw June 12, and arrived in Tokyo on June 19. After a day in customs it arrived at my place today, June 21. Not bad. Posted...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    Good news! My SENTRY is somewhere in KAWASAKI JP in Customs. Hopefully I get a notice to pay the custom fee soon so I can get it delivered.... Hi Sam-I-Am, I was looking at your build and it seems to me that you were going for low-power / low-heat / low-noise. How is it going for you? I think...
