1 out of 5 eggsLCD works, but not the fan controller

This review is from: NZXT Sentry-2 5.25" Touch Screen Fan Controller

Pros: LCD panel looks futuristic

Cons: When I installed it, and turned the pc on for the first time with the part hooked up with fans, there was a pop like a resister going out as I start it up and smoke and the smell of hot glue and burning solder, this is the second one that they sent since the first one did the same thing to me, I couldn't anymore disappointed then what I was the first time that it happened.

5 out of 5 eggsSolid Fan Controller

This review is from: NZXT Sentry-2 5.25" Touch Screen Fan Controller

Pros: It does its job well. It feels like a quality product, installs easy, does everything I need it to do.

Cons: Instructions could be a little more detailed on how all of the functions work, but a quick Google search turned up everything needed.

Other Thoughts: Great product for a great price. Extra cables come in the box. Shipped fast.

5 out of 5 eggsVery nice fan controller

This review is from: NZXT Sentry-2 5.25" Touch Screen Fan Controller

Pros: Easy to install, very clear display. Has connectors for 5 fans, 3-pin and 4-Pin (molex). The temp leads were pretty nice, and so far pretty accurate. I have everything set up to run on auto and it does a great job keeping things cool.

Cons: Non as of yet.

Other Thoughts: The display is bright and vibrant, not a huge deal for me since i keep the computer under a desk. However it might be a bit bright for some. There is an option to turn off the display, though I haven't tried it.

5 out of 5 eggsSo cool!

This review is from: NZXT Sentry-2 5.25" Touch Screen Fan Controller

Pros: easy to use, very handy

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: My new case comes with controlled fans so I don't use this controller anymore BUT I do still use it to see the temperature in my case at various places. When I did use the controller, it was fantastic!! Lots of variations of speed and it's just a great extra to have in a build.

3 out of 5 eggsWorked

This review is from: NZXT Sentry-2 5.25" Touch Screen Fan Controller

Pros: Esthetically great looking addon for my NZXT Phantom 410 build. It looked great. I really liked the quality of the thermal sensors and the cable length was just right. First time purchasing a DIY digi fan controller.

Cons: 3 eggs due to it never let me change fan spans after I set all fans to 50%. It would power on and power on the fans but I could never configure anything on it after the initial settings. I think I got a bad one from the factory.

Other Thoughts: This build was sold on e bay so I hope the new owner likes the fan controller. He's new to gaming computers so he probably never tried to change the settings. Not sure where the disconnect is with NZXT's QC. The cases are great (in my experience), but this device didn't measure up. It felt to me like NZXT farmed this out to a 3rd party and slapped an NZXT sticker on it.

5 out of 5 eggsWorks

This review is from: NZXT Sentry-2 5.25" Touch Screen Fan Controller

Pros: Cheap. Does what it is supposed to do. My system doesn't run all that hot but the fans were running pretty good and making a heck of a racket. I switched to Noctura fans and this controller and now my wife's laptop is louder than my desktop even when I'm pushing it to max performance. No problems with performance for over a year.

Cons: I would rather something LCD/touchscreen that was a little less flashy. Cables are an issue - but you should expect that, right? Instructions were limited (or none) but it's pretty obvious. I would like the LCD to go dim/blank when not in use.

Other Thoughts: I would buy again unless I was looking for a very minimalist build.

5 out of 5 eggsReReview

This review is from: NZXT Sentry-2 5.25" Touch Screen Fan Controller

Pros: Very durable (After 3 years of non-stop operation, its still fully functional, haven't used any of the extra temp sensors, still correct voltage)

Cons: Lacks good instructions

Other Thoughts: Pro-Tip, make sure to mount it on both sides, otherwise it will move around and be flimsy like

2 out of 5 eggsgreat until I needed more than one fan

This review is from: NZXT Sentry-2 5.25" Touch Screen Fan Controller

Pros: -looks great, single bay
-easy to conceal cables
-temps for case are somewhat accurate
-low price
-NZXT

Cons: oh where to start. I couldn't find out how to disable the awful beeping sound when I press it. not too much of a con. here's where it gets bad. one fan? no problem. two fans? eh. one is always powered (like it should) the second is pumping power in and out resulting in a clicking sound. my power supply is 1500w, so yes I have enough. three fans? kills 2/3 of them. 4-5 fans? only one runs. great product until I connected my second and third fan. I think I'll use my case's concealed fan hub now, and just use this for temperatures.
