NZXT Sentry Mix 2 Review

flibberdipper

Another good reason for a controller like this is those of us who have more case fans that fan headers on their motherboards (us ITX mobo users).  I use this controller due to my ASRock ITX mobo only having one chassy fan header.  Instead of splitters and more wires to manage, I went with this controller and love the added aesthetics it added to my rig.  The tray also has a bit of room to hide other cables if you need more room for cable management. 

 

Great review!

It is awesome. I have the really outdated Thermal radar on my P67 Sabertooth but it still works great, and I love how you can set the fan curve and not worry about it ever again :)

Fan Xpert is basically the same, except you can control more fans and more accurately :D I can't wait for a motherboard upgrade, but I really want to get the white Sabranco when asus releases it.

All the current fan stuff for asus started on the TV series boards.

Not really sure, TBH. Only thing I can see from looking on Google Images is cosmetic changes.
