Haha I'm right there with MrNateTheGreat, I sometimes even look forward to the reaction from TSA (and the Japanese equivalent). I fly to/from the US/Japan every 45 days or so, I've gotten quite accustomed to taking the computer out on the Japan side and getting secondary screening (with TSA...

Continuation... So my big plan to have a treat for this thread didn't pan out so well. I had a business class flight from EWR to NRT recently and had this grand plan to hook my Sentry PC to my in seat power and game some on my 14 hour flight. That was part of the reason I bought the USB...

I've had that problem sometimes, the most frustrating thing though is when it does the "Task Switcher" seemingly randomly.

Attached is the datasheet for the monitor I bought. It has worked fine for me so far, my only requirement was IPS, 1920x1080 (couldn't find a good 2k), and USB powered. The person I spoke with about ordering it was very responsive, and worked with me a bit to ensure everything was to my...

I travel just the same way!!! Though I found a USB powered 15" HDMI connected 1080p monitor on one of the Chinese websites (like Aliexpress) and it works great! If it works as planned coming up I'll have another treat for this thread! EDIT: I keep this monitor in a laptop sleeve, fits...

My little brother (computer programmer) gave me a little insight on why the GPUs are getting so pricy and scarce. He just sold his lightly used RX480 for $200 over what he bought it for. To someone in Russia ($70 shipping). It seems altcoin mining is such a big thing now that everyone is...

Huh, I got case number 128, indiegogo order 52. I was expecting a lower case number but I'm not upset. I'm just happy to have my case!

Here's one for you: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA98C5N73213

It's hard to know what lengths will work until you know which motherboard and which GPU you're looking at.

That is good news! If the status gets updated to "notice sent by import customs" you should receive a notice in the mail. You're exactly right, I was going for low noise/low heat in my build. That's why I picked the components I did, and am quite happy with it. As I mentioned in my build...

I'm glad your case is arriving as fast as mine did (if I'd been here to accept it that is)! You can actually plug your tracking number into Japan Post's website, it gives more info since it's in Japan now. I think if I had done it all over again I would have only changed one or two things...

You're quite correct, it probably would have.

Thank you! You most certainly can! I can send you more if you like :D

One last update on mine for the night, it's alive!!! I have noticed that with this case I notice a bit more noise from the PSU fan than I did in the RVZ02. It was dead silent before. Not a big deal and I figure it's due to the fan being right against the side of the case. I don't mind the...

I measured it in my RVZ02 and didn't take well enough in account that the PSU is further "up" in the Sentry case than the RVZ02 case. Ordered before I got my Sentry of course. Such is life though, I'll survive.

...AAAAaaaand my 24 pin Cablemod power cable is too short :arghh: Looks like 250mm is just a hair too short for my setup. Darn. I'm not about to shell out another $59.90 for another one shipped, so I'll be stuffing my stock cable back in (bummer). That said, it's all assembled!

It's here! I picked it up from my post office today at lunch and took it back to my work. I unfortunately can't take my phone with me to my desk at work but I can definitely say it arrived in VERY good condition! One very small ding in the outer box, the inner box was pristine. Here's my...

Finally got back from my business trip, found out why my Sentry wasn't delivered yet (first batch white Sentry), shipped to Japan: -On a customs hold since 2 June (shipped 25 May) -got a registered mail letter notification from my on base post office (I'm US military) -that registered mail? A...

Yeah I figured something of the sort, thanks again for working with my shipping changes!

Shipping update here! My Sentry shipped on May 25th, and arrived in Japan today! That was fast (one week from Poland to Japan)! I expect it'll be delivered by the end of the week (depending on customs). Only problem (for me) is I'm on a business trip in the USA for another two weeks! :cry...

Got my shipping notification!!! Thanks again DR ZĄBER Sentry Team!!!

Pleasesayminetoo pleasesayminetoo pleasesayminetoo! (can't contain excitement!)

I might have some peace-of-mind help for you. I am in the US Navy, and I have lived overseas for over four years now. I just moved from Hawaii to Japan last year, and I have extensive experience with overseas shipping. If something is shipped across an ocean and it goes by surface (say when I...

Yes, comes with feet. See here: The feet you saw a few pages back are from Lian Li, see here:

Thanks, yeah I think the white cables will really look good in my white Sentry too. And yes that's the MSI z270i Gaming Pro Carbon.

CableMod cables arrived! It probably helps that I live in Japan and they shipped from Hong Kong... I installed the cables in my dying RVZ02 (dying from lack of travel compatibility, front plastic snapped right off). I'm pleased with the lengths I ordered (See here). 250mm 24 pin and 300mm 8...

Nice looking setup! I especially like how your screen has a picture of your post on this forum, nice one (y)

Nah, their "click here" for view your configuration is broken there too. I just stumbled upon this, I made a new dummy order on their site, added it to cart and then clicked view config (that link actually worked). And you're welcome!

If you want to access your configuration you ordered, paste your "configuration ID" after the colon in this URL For instance, mine is here. (for Silverstone SX500-LG and MSI Z270I Carbon) Mine is showing on UPS that it'll arrive Monday.

You and me both! I agree, just excited (as I'm sure you are).

I know this is from a few pages back but I figured I'd update you since it sounds like we ordered our CableMod cables just about the same day. I just got notification yesterday that mine shipped! So hopefully you get your notification soon... I'm just holding on to the hope that my CableMod...

Yeah I'm with you, the updates here should be used as a model for how crowdfunding should go. I'm also feeling like I could make some sort of Michael Jackson reference here :LOL:

We must think alike, I ordered my cable set just yesterday in preparation for my white Sentry! I also saw the 2-3 week lead time...oh well, good things come to those who wait, as we all here know! I measured the distances in my RVZ02 and for the most part kept those lengths. This is the exact...

I really appreciate the care you're taking in making sure our cases are packaged safely. Thank you ZĄBER team!

I am definitely planning on using the Sentry for travel. My backpack is the eBags Professional Slim, and it "should" fit...I'm quite ready for the change because my RVZ02 has quite a few dents from just three times traveling in a huge backpack (not the eBags backpack). Sentry: 13.5" x 12.68" x...

Totally agree. Every day I'm thinking "Is it Sunday Sentry update time yet?" I've even noticed the pictures on the Twitter posts are higher resolution, so I've been admiring all the pictures' detail through there.

Check a few updates back, 5th week update to be precise. Looks like they're finished already:

If you want it to run cooler, do like I did and buy a 35W TDP CPU. I have a core i5 7500T, if you can find one at a reasonable price go for an i7 7700T. I coupled mine with a copper core Intel box cooler from a 95W TDP CPU.

Thanks! That's what I was looking for! And also what I figured would be the case. I'll probably just try filter-less for the most part.

I understand you explained it before, but I'd prefer to keep the filters inside to keep the cleaner exterior look. I was saying I'm imagining you simply can't install the filter over the motherboard internally due to clearance. You mentioned you can install the GPU filters internally, I get...
