sentry Star Wars themed gaming PC build in a white Sentry mini ITX case

[zbeegniev]

Hi guys

Thought I'd share my upcoming project - a Star Wars themed, compact gaming PC in a white Dr Zaber Sentry case.

 

Specs:

ASRock H110M-ITX motherboard

Intel Core i5 6500

8 GB Kingston HyperX Fury RAM

XFX RX 480 RS

Thermaltake Toughpower 550W Modular

 

I'll be make a wrap for the case which will look something like this:

 

And here's a not so great visualization.

man that visualization looks sweet!

can't wait to see the final product

[FloRolf]

love that it kinda looks like an Xbox so each time people come up to your living room and say "wow, that's an awesome looking Xbox" you can just say something like "Looks like a glorified Xbox if you ask me, you peasant!"

 

 

OT: Some inside pics?

[NaLu]

Looks cool and całkiem fajny render

@FloRolf I'll be making a build video for my YT channel and will make sure to take some stills while I'm at it

@NaLu Thanks bardzo

How the heck did you get a Dr. Zaber Sentry Case?

From Mr Ząber himself  

I was the third youtuber in the world (after LInus and Dmitry) to lay hands on the Sentry. I published a thorough evaluation of a black one two weeks ago.

This one is an engineering sample number 00013

Oh... That makes sense, so it's pre-production?

I'm not sure If You guys were wondering whether the first image is a render or not, but it's not

 

zbeegniev got the case from us because he's got quite a skill for proper and thorough reviews, and has interiors in his flat that are universally suiting presentation of modern appliances such as our chassis. Make sure to watch his review if You haven't done so already:

And yes, this white beauty is still a pre-production unit, with some most recent refinements, but stay tuned guys, we're almost there

Hmm this feels like some wrapping a high end sports car.

You'd be surprised how many supercars are wrapped.

Automotive industry aside, I see your point.

But you must know that I'm a youtuber, trying very hard to gain subscribers. While a gaming PC build video in a Sentry case would be a solid content, there's a chance that a Star Wars themed build will result in a much higher exposure. I will be making the decals myself (I know I called it 'wrap' before) so there will be some DIY involved, which should also make the video more interesting than a plain assembly.

 What is your youtube channel? I wanna watch it!

[zbeegniev]

Here's a quick pic of the case disassembled that I took when test fitting the RX480... The XFX GTR Black Edition uses pretty much every inch available in the GPU compartment

Slight change of plans, the PSU will be Silverstone SST-SX500-LG 500W fully modular.

It's yetanothertechchannel.com, but no worries, I'll link the video here once it's published

[zbeegniev]

Work in progress...

Still work in progress...

 

 

All done! 

 

It's high time to drop some hardware in it

What do you guys think?
