Unboxing- NZXT Sentry LX Fan Controller

[64BitDude]

Thanks for the reply. I really don't need the 5.25 drive slots. All my drives are SSD except one 5.25 slot with six 500GB 7200 WD Black 2.5" drives. There are 4 setup as RAID 5 and 2 are RAID 0 for extra storage. The other two slots are free. I only use USB Corsair 3.0 sticks and I have a home server with 5TB of space connected via GBit. Zero optical drives for me. Dont use them. My box is very high end running 32GB Corsair DDR3, 4.45GHz i7 Q Core and dual EVGA 580 SLI video cards.

[64BitDude]

Thanks for the reply. I sure will and keep up the good work sharing this great content. Now that you used the fan controller, would you recommend it? Two slots is a lot to give upwhen you ony have three total but I'm willing to do it based on your recommendation.

[VvCompHelpvV]

@64BitDude 1 year down the road...would I recommend this fan controller? No. It kept making random beeping noises. The temperatures were fine, just the fan controller was going nuts(after looking up the problem online, seems like lots of people were having the same problem). I swapped it out for another one "Aerocool Strike-X." This one seems to be working fine so far..had it for what? 3-4 months now? Hmm...You have 3 bays total? I don't think I'd get a fan controller in the case.

[VvCompHelpvV]

@64BitDude If anything, I would personally have 2 Disk Drives an an Internal Memory Card Reader.

[64BitDude]

You need to get a real camera and a tripod. We appreciate your time but it will make your information more discernible to us that are interested. Thank you...

[VvCompHelpvV]

@64BitDude yeah...this was recorded a year ago.  Check out some of my recent content. 8)

[codmister10]

or you can get it at amazon for 49$

[TheHeew]

@codmister10 prices change, he bought this in 2010. its 2012 now bro x]

[codmister10]

@TheHeew i konw i was just saying so people knew

[jcoleman7018]

wow i just dont understand one handed unboxing videos. dude, you are in a bathroom...why? are you dropping a bomb while doing this? seriously?

[swagman12343]

rather go w water cooling sooo much cooler than fans because the next thing anyone wants is a fried cpu bye shit tons of money

[stadt96]

Thanks :D !

[CmptrPrgmr]

Dame it. My fans use molexes for power. I really wanted this one. I saw AeroCool ones but they also use 3 pin to connect and they also have audio on it which I don't want because I wont be able to connect it because that header on my mobo is already occupied.

[MegaFoShow]

@boomer5901 go for it i am too lol seems usefull

[stinkie602]

invest in a tripod

[Mastersaofan]

WILL THIS FIT ON AN ANTEC 300 FONT PANEL ?

[marcial1152]

fuck unboxing vid's 

[leitao1996]

its kick ass. i love using this fan controller.

[opilako]

can i lower the brightnes of the fan LED lights? or only the speed of the fan?

[jarcyk111]

@VvCompHelpvV

Can you set the RPM of a fan to 0 and completlly stop it ? im thinking to buy it soon and i want a fan controler that is able to completly stop a fan

[liamdudeeee]

both the sentry 2 and the sentry LX have good and down points. but the down sides of both of them stop me from buying either. the sentry 2 makes a loud buzzing sound for most fans you plug into it, even though its "compatible with all fans". and the sentry LX uses 2 expansion slots were as the sentry 2 used only 1. the LX can also only use 3 pin fans which is horse shit since most case fans use molex. even the sentry 2 had connectors for 3 pin and molex. the sentry series is a big shit bomb

[XvEmoKittyvX]

Hmm, at Fry's it's only $35. 0_o

[MrJigab00]

just fukin open the box already

[juless05]

Is it possible to put this thing off?? :s

[dtraisin]

@juless05 yes, you hold a button and it turns the screen off but continues operating

[GLuGGycOw]

delicious?

[Zerogamer22]

Can the sentry LX be placed in a Cooler Master Storm Scout case? Anyone knows?

[Wolfstanus]

@Zerogamer22 if the case has more than 2 drive bays then yes.

[mondueo]

I wish I could find boxes with fan controlers in them on my porch, so i could dump all the packaging nuts on the ground.

[lovinlyfe4dub]

LOL your stoked I would be to.Thats an extremely awesome product that I think is essential to an awesome looking pc

[MicroTerminator]

bathrooms are where I record all of my films... ;)

[Crazy650]

I just watched this to find out you have the same case as me i got my case yesterday and already love my case.

[ixy1987]

i want to get this but can any1 please tell where you would install the temperature sensor for the cpu ???

[Yakobash]

hows installation on it?

[Shayd93]

so..its not working? xD

[dranoel1963]

i thought u got a sentry that shoots ppl lol

[grame141]

@marcusthedog don't worrie about it

[TGTDco]

You spend a long time in the bathroom......

[MarwellStudious]

No offence, but you buy some pretty useless stuff. :|

[weetnietgeen]

soooooo.... whats the practical use of this??

[nickdapimp90]

@weetnietgeen

It slows the fan down. So when you use a loud high air flow case you can slow it down to make it quiet.

[weetnietgeen]

@nickdapimp90 but then you dont have a ''high air flow'' anymore :P thus would it be easier and cheaper to buy a slower/quieter fan instead lol ?

[nickdapimp90]

@weetnietgeen

You don't need high air all the time. Like if you wanted to watch a movie or just go on the internet you could turn the fans down so you don't have to hear them. But if you want to game, turn em' up.

[grame141]

@marcusthedog i think you'd be luck to get a laptop that can have it's video card changed

[lazer46]

why would you wanna control the speed of your computer fan?

[FreeDownloads1]

@lazer46 maybe if a virus makes his fan go fast

[igonnagetfsx]

What about getting a tripod?

[Miny000000]

@igonnagetfsx

Lol exactly what I was going to say.

[VvCompHelpvV]

@igonnagetfsx working on it...but my camera tripod hole is stripped...8/

[girrrrrrr2]

@VvCompHelpvV superglue a normal 5/8 nut to the bottom of it, or get someone to repair the camera.

[VvPhonevV]

@girrrrrrr2 WOA!!! The simplest fix! I never thought of that! Thanks SO MUCH! lol...I stripped the camera the first day I got the tripod.

[girrrrrrr2]

@VvPhonevV Wow... the first day? what was the origional bolt made of... Butter?

[AnnoyingFlamingo]

@VvCompHelpvV Kinky..

[Deluxeta]

@VvCompHelpvV Duct tape o_o.

[HangOnWindows]

hey uhmm what are the complete specs of your build?

[InverseBlue]

u know that xoxide.com sells it for the same price?

[VvCompHelpvV]

@InverseBlue woa! Didn't know about that site. thanks a bunch!

[InverseBlue]

@VvCompHelpvV no problem bro :D

[MegaWaxz]

@VvCompHelpvV that site its been there for decade. That's where I got most of computer parts. That is so addictive that I just keep buying stuff to pimp out my PC.

[InglouriousGamer2009]

@VvCompHelpvV This isn't needed?

[b0bbyle1]

if you ever die can i have all your stuff plz?

[dranoel1963]

@b0bbyle1 LOL

[nehalvpatel]

@eNLivEx

He's mexican (i think) not a nigga

[slamt08]

waste of money

[XxNinjaKevinxX]

@slamt08 its not really a waste. It can increase the life span of a computer.

[jaynyce202]

why is important that you control your fan speed?

[iPodPhreak]

@jaynyce202 so it doesn't heat up?

[nehalvpatel]

@jaynyce202

So your computer doesn't blow up or burn?

[XxNinjaKevinxX]

@jaynyce202 if ur fan speed is slow, the heat can build and cause permanent damage to ur computer.

[LookanIndian]

dude no offense but u waste shit loads of money

[ThugIILiiFe]

@LookanIndian i would just buy a gaming pc for about 500 bux

[Yakobash]

@LookanIndian dude no offence but is it your money? i dont see who you are to tell people how to spend their money. when your running 7 fans your gonna want to control the speed, and trust me your not going to go around flipping the switch on them all.

[stingraycss]

@eNLivEx I think he is more half black and half white....

[MiniStew2]

i thort i unsubbed from this channel ages ago. i guess ill do it now :)

[SmileWidePro]

there is a free program that I use that does that, on my mac.

[siman880]

@eNLivEx lol he is latino

[bluemike155]

lol i think you need a tripod! nice video! =]

[smallvideobox]

In my opinion you should buy something to hold your camera steady :D

[coijoi]

nice

[TuTube105]

At 2:14 Did you see the piece of packaging move on the right side of the screen?

[supersaintsfan31]

@TuTube105 Lol its from him flipping through to book

[TuTube105]

@supersaintsfan31 Yeah, I really didn't know, since he had that Ghost Video up and all, you know....

[supersaintsfan31]

@TuTube105 Lol ya

[sa5er1234]

now i don't get it, what can we use it for... ???

[murloxjki]

Delicious packaging popcorn!

[iceless]

Looks tacky in my opinion but I wanna see it on a tower working, then I'll decide :) It kinda looks like a mini microwave from the boxing lol.

[nehalvpatel]

@iceless

Go to his other channel where he demonstrates it

[lines4you]

in my opinion its useful

[bmwguy11]

why didnt u use a stand ?? the video is shaky and it pretty much ruins the whole unboxing .....

[Koolkid736]

when i first saw the thumbnail for this vid i thought it was a bloody vagina O_O

[vbognot626]

Great Video! Here's an idea. You should make a series on how to build your own computer. Many people would be interested in the idea!

[7777ronaldo7777]

@vbognot626 I agree.

[elektronic]

@vbognot626 Excellent Suggestion

[BillyC500]

@vbognot626 I agree

[jakelikes123]

That is sweet

[GeniusDealProduction]

Do you buy stuffs or your parents with there own money? or your money?

[DjGalm]

@GeniusDealProduction Huh? Read your question again, genius!

[GeniusDealProduction]

@DjGalm Well.. Could you read it for me? Im lazy

[nehalvpatel]

@GeniusDealProduction

With his money! :D
