I grudgingly need to conform that. I bought one until I get my fingers on a Sentry, but although the footprint is okayish, it just does not feel nice. Tried to tell myself ist is just a little difference to the Sentry, but no. In between I got a Ncase M1 for just a fraction of the price and Ill...
That sounds quite reasonable. Maybe it is the Sentry then. In the Node 202 I finally decided to hang a 120 mm fan, (Noiseblocker NB-eLoop B12-PS, 120mm) atop the LP53, this really did do alot. It is quieter than the Noctua and it maybe the case that it helps dissipating the heat with the wider...
Did you also put the liquid metal on the IHS or just on the DIE? Did you clean off all of the rubber between the PCB and the IHS? Even more important than the quality of the TIM is the distance between the DIE and the IHS. That is why one should also just use very little slicone. Also one...
I cannot share my results of my different cooler configurations and thermal pastes. I just had to much shift in the ambient temps.
Watch this. He has several videos up showing how big an effect the liquid metal has on GPUs. Do you have the 1 g syringe of Kryonaut? the 5 g syringe does have...
I tinkered around with the liquid metal and decided not to use it between the CPUs HS and the cooler. I dellided some CPUs myself and liquid metal is great to use in this case, but it is a little messy. Would use it on a GPU though. The Kryonout did help the temps of the CPU but the delta is...
I was a little bored while I wait for my shipment so I decided to pick up a cleaning tool

and delid my i3-4170. It was really easy. Cleaned it and for the lack of a Thermal Grizzly paste I just went with Arctic MX-4 and a...
Impresse results. I think whoever intends to use an Intel CPU in the Sentry or similar SFF systems should delid. My objective is to build a gaming sff pc that is at least while idling/office extemely silent.

He uses the conductonaut liquid metal...
At Ej24:
Since I will order the Kryonaut for other projects as well (my PS4 slim will receive a treatment), I can also use this. It has been reviewed as the "best" non-liquid metal based thermal paste. This fits the theory as the MX-4 has a thermal conductivity of 8.5 W/mK, the Thermakl...
Ive done some reseach and modern liquid metal like http://www.thermal-grizzly.com/en/products/26-conductonaut-en will solidify at 10 degrees celsius. It cannot "dry out" be the common sense of the meaning but obv it can oxidate. Ill try it on my CPU shortly with the LP53+Noctua A9x14...
My 4790k is delidded and treated with liquid metal. I didnt do it myself, I bought the CPU second hand in a German hardware board (hardwareluxx.de), I trust it has been done. What would you do to prevent it from dripping?
Wouldnt this principle fit for a Sentry?

To really receive the maximum air from outside?
Hi Guys,
similar to what has been done here

I want to buy a cheap case just to house the watercooling components, radiator, pump, reservoir etc. Which cheap case has the proper specs to house at least two 360 rads?
Best,
Jan
What I mean is something like that.

Its a bracket were the case would go without putting strain on the case itself.
High Daniel, I've some ideas reagrdings the thermal design of your case.
I have the impression that you are a PC case enthusiast. You might know the Silverstone FT02. I had this case before I went SFF. The 90° mobo tray worked really efficient for air cooling. The main advantage is that the GPU...
Thís is a German site

You can compare CPU performance by absolute performance, including several bechmarks, or you can just compare them by gaming performance. Here the Pentiums performance is 79% of the...
I think Ill go for a cheap system: G4560, RX470, 8 GB RAM, 250 or 500 GB m.2 SSD. I go more by silence as for maximum specs, it will do for my current needs.
Ive seen a build of a Node202 where someone cut a window to use a full size air cooler. So I asked my, if I wanted to use the DAN case as a LAN-Case/highly portable case, how fast and comfy one can attach and deattach lets say the thermalright le grande macho. So while playing the side panel...
I've been using a QNAP NAS for a while now and their software and hardware seems to be highly capable. One reason why I plan to get a Sentry is that I dont need that much internal storage anymore. And because its so sexy.
The magnet I linked in my last post carries 16 kg (Haftkraft roughly translates to the weight you can put on that thing. Haft=sticky Kraft=power)
I always thought that you can shield from a magnetic field by applying iron/steel.
Magnets shouldnt affect SSDs, right? I dont plan to ever get back...
So since the sentry is steel it should stick to magnets, right? When I dont carry it to the lving room or a LAN party, I plan to tuck it under my desk by screwing 2-3 like these under my desk...
How do I find one wantig to sell theirs? Is there a community thingy within indiegogo? Thing is also I'd really like to see in IRL before buying one. 10 years ago I dearly wanted a Silverstone Temjin 07 and when I found one in retail I didnt really like it. Also it spoiled aluminum a bit for me...
Will you try to get a German distributor, like Caseking? It might have been asked before but is there an estimation when a non-backer customer can buy one?
Do you think high end hardware will still be silent in office/idle?
I am really interested in building a miniITX system..why should I wait for the sentry instead of using the Node 202? Can someone put some side by side pictures? I really need some motivation here^^.
