    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...

    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...

    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.

    Netzon: Netcase, a console style aluminum case

    Nothing's wrong with using aluminum. Some of the more popular cases on this forum uses it. Plus with 1.5mm thickness, it should be quite durable. Also more vent holes normally results in cooler components.

    If some don't have tracking, would there be any indication that it has arrived in the US at least?

    Hopefully gpu prices will come down soon. Their value is too inflated right now.

    You could fill the stripped socket completely with a strong epoxy like jb weld and make a new socket indentation/imprint using the screw driver/wrench before it dries. Then use the wrench to unscrew it as normal after the expoxy hardens.

    Does it mean the ones that uses USB for both power and video can't be used to play games using the gpu in the computer? Will these monitors work along with other monitors plugged into the gpu?

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    So if I understand correctly, the next shipment of black cases will be the 3rd batch of 150 cases since the second batch will be 150 white cases? In other words, my black case will be in the 3rd batch of 150 black cases?

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    I'm still kinda confused on the shipping. You guys said that some people dropped out of the campaign early on. So does that mean if my order id shows 301, it is actually lower? Also since the white sentries are delayed, does it mean the first batch of 150 black sentries shipped were not...

    a 1060 is all you need for 1080p at 60 fps on all the modern games.

    Does the EVGA 1060 mini fit? I don't seem to see it in the table. Thanks

    o wow. That's pretty crazy. I'm guessing it would just be a matter of time before the only ports on our computers are replaced by usb-c. I'm surprised this hasn't happened yet.

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    Again, even with rgb, the fan and ssd will still be covering the mb so you are only making those parts more visible instead of the mb. And for the ram, if you are looking for contrast while u have a white sentry, wouldn't black ram make more scence instead of white which just blends in with the...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    If you look at the videos or pictures of an assembled sentry, you can barely see anything through its holes. Also even if you do notice the internals through those tiny holes, you'll only be seeing the fan and ssd on the motherboard and also the fans on the gpu since those are whats pretty much...

    SENTRY: Console-sized gaming PC case project

    It looked like I missed the country part. Another question, if I decide to take part in the long run batch, how soon will I be able to see the start of the next batch? Also will there going to be any changes to the case in the next batch?

    So is there no option for shipping then? I live in the US and I thought shipping would be $30 or lower, but it's showing that shipping will cost over $50.

    When I enter the price to back it, do I have to include the shipping price as well or do I get that option later? Because I don't know what shipping options there are yet.
