Sadly, I'm quite limited by the amount of models on the market in Russia and there is no Silverstone Tundra or any asetek aio avaliable. Will I be able to fit Corsair CWCH60 or H60(2018) into Sentry?

Production SENTRY 2.0: Evolution of console-sized gaming PC case
- Thread starter ZombiPL
- Start date
Not sure I want to have first attempt at building custom AIO on top of $1.5k worth of fresh hardware.
I regret changing my shipping address with the idea it would help expedite the process... b/c seeing others with their Sentry already before even receiving my shipping notification feelsbadman. I’m glad the reception has been very positive so far, though! I’ll just keep anxiously waiting for mine and hoping for the best!
Would changing the fans and turning on eco mode (on a 3600) help with the turbulence noise?
I'm not sure. This will depend on the motherboard and the fan curve. I'm on Eco mode right now and I still reach 70 degrees while gaming, so I assume it ramps up to high RPMs, it's just that NH-L9i's fan is far from perforation. Maybe if using C7 CU/Graphene radiator will make it a lot cooler somehow, it'll let you have low RPMs all the time, but I doubt it since you need airflow to use the radiator efficiently.
I haven't tested the CU/G myself so I cannot be 100% sure, but literally every fan I have tried against the perforation has induced the turbulence, including small and big noctua fans. I have tested NH-L9i with 25 mm fan as well.
From the past campaign, it usually comes in waves. Like there is a 1st wave (not limited by region), 2nd wave, etc. depending on when you ordered it.
Also to any newbie builders (like me) who never built in an SFFPC: IF you have the cash, pay for custom cables! It’s extremely worth it in my opinion on small cases like these. My Zaber 1.1 is almost perfect, I’m just waiting for my custom cables so I don’t have to push in cables everywhere
We never said that. We said that we will try to ship it around the end of this week. We're still waiting for the paperwork to be done and after that we will have to prepare each package for shipment by attaching the labels and invoices onto them and laying them out for easy scanning by DHL courier before loading.
The whole issue with the paperwork is that even with DHL you still have to decide on specific date for the package to be picked up, there's no option to print shipping labels with no specific date set for the shipment, so you have to gauge how much time it'll take for preparing invoices. Also for the customs clearance on our side we need invoice to be issued roughly at the same date as the shipment, we couldn't just issue and print all invoices ahead, the invoice and the customs clearance must be in the same month.
So in effect we are issuing batch of invoices, printing them and at the same time trying to gauge how much time it'll take to go through all paperwork and decide on a date to ship. And we have slipped up because for some reason there needs to be twice as much papers for export packages than it was when we were shipping a DHL test batch two years ago, and twice as much when we were shipping review samples earlier this year. This first shipment was unexpected race against time because of that and we don't want to do it like this again.

No. There are 3 waves. First passed last week (45%), second should be this week (40%) and the remaining are poor souls who changed their address. And it's not dependent on when you ordered it.

Not really, but export packages are still greatly dominating the remaining orders to be shipped.

I’m actually pretty irritated about this... If I would’ve known changing my address would’ve delayed getting my case by multiple weeks I wouldn’t have ever changed it. I switched from my home address to my business address b/c businesses get priority where I’m from, and I thought it would speed up the process. So much for that brilliant plan lol.
oh wow i missed a lot hahaha, haven’t been back in a while i guess@polarium

I'm looking forward to giving my money to a flipper /s
Definitely not missing out on Sentry 3.0 or a Sentry 2.0 pt 2 lol; learned my lesson on procrastinating when backing things you want.
