looks really nice, not shure though if i'd like it in my Zero because of the door..the sentry 1 however is really good visible with the zero(top bay)

i used to love the sentry 1 but over the years i realized i don't really need a fan controller besides for pretty looks hehe :D

yeah I only use it for the looks(and for telling time when watching a movie) too, it looks badass in a Zero

That thing looks SWEET!

If it doesn't have as high a failure rate as the Sentry I [:P], I'd consider getting one!

It likely controls case fans [;)], but would it also control a CPU cooler?

Probabbly, else you can just connect the Cpu cooler, I belive it has a very similar connector...

It's a 5 fan controller ( you can turn them off too, the effect is just too cool to miss ), 5 fan temperature monitor and of course temp alarm among other small things like time. It's got the aluminum front plate so definitely of quality stuff. Believe it or not more people stared at the panel more than the cases :D :D

That would look sweet on the Adamas! I would get it if I wasn't going away to college in August, gonna be selling my rig in a few months, around May/June and getting a laptop. It really does look fascinating though. =D

Hi guys,
We, at Virtual Legion, received the proposition (from a distributor) of previewing a sample of the incoming Sentry LX. You can see the 5 page preview here:

-> NZXT Sentry LX Preview (http://www.virtualegion.com/portal/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=82:preview-nzxt-sentry-lx-&catid=32:modding&Itemid=96) <-

(It's in Portuguese but you can see the overall aspects and youtube videos)

The sample tested is not a "final version", but I can tell you already: It's going to be a fantastic controller!:erstaunt078: Very very user friendly and the big LCD is just amazing, very easy to read. The AUTO mode is also fantastic, it keeps the PC cool and quiet. :thumbsup:
I have no doubt: the Sentry LX will be a huge success. :)

Yeah, the LX looks great, specially in a black case. And It's better than the Zalman MFC2 I bought a few weeks ago. :thumbsup:


Edit: I've added English descriptions to the Sentry LX Preview youtube videos (http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=Virtualegion) so you all can understand better a little better de details.

Just one problem, Zbyszek (welcome to the forums btw), is that you're going to have to leave your door open to be able to see it!

You have the full right, but imagine the effect when you open the door... :thumbsup:
