new NZXT Sentry LXE fan controller

[SXRguyinMA]

looks effing awesome!! It's external, so it takes up no bays which is neat. Basically like the sentry 2, but shows all five temps, fan RPMs and speed percentages, as well as day of the week, time and date

Don't think we did not try to be the first. We do have one on the way though. Tweek town got theirs at Computex last month.

yeah I was just reading about that in the frontpage news before I came here....

I think I'd rather have it in the bays. Or maybe I'd flush mount it some how on my desk. That'd be sexy.

For some reason I never thought to put a sensor under the cpu retainer...

Me neither, and I even have a NZXT guardian with 3 sensors. Since I couldn't figure out where to put them I just put them away in a remote 3.25 bay ^^

I didnt think of that either with my Sentry2. I actually taped it to the topsde of my cpu cooler (TT Big Typhoon Pro 14) and it seems to work pretty good. compared to coretemp readings its 15-20C off. I think when I swap hardware over to Tempest, I'll put it under the retainer like that. looks cleaner too! or would it be better off on the backside of the mobo under the cpu?

well im happy with my Lian Li TR-5b

But that NZXT is pretty bad !@s looking.
