NZXT Sentry LXE Review

The NZXT Sentry LXE has proven to be a very versatile product.  It can be configured to meet individual demands allowing for nearly silent fan operation, or the ability to deal with even the hottest overclocked systems.  NZXT have made sure that all the fan cables and thermal probes are long enough to be routed neatly inside a chassis, keeping clutter to a minimum. We used the Sentry LXE with the NZXT Phantom case that we recently reviewed. The LXE provides the ability to monitor system temperatures and adjust fan RPM directly from our desk thanks to the elegant looking brushed aluminum external touch screen display.

We think the Sentry LXE would be a good addition to both HTPC and typical desktop systems.  HTPC users will be able to reduce fan speed to the point of virtually eliminating any unwanted noise.  This feature will make multimedia experiences as enjoyable as possible, while overclockers can crank their fans to their limit and keep a close eye on the temperature of their treasured overclocked components.

We have no problem recommending the NZXT Sentry LXE and feel it is a product worth buying. It will add functionality to your system and provide peace of mind knowing you can glance over and monitor you system temperatures at any time. This product can be picked up for around $60 in the USA.

  1. Cool little tool, are these sold outside the US?

  2. Good device, looks great too which helps. Might look into picking up one later this month.

  3. Looks well on a desk, my friend has one similar, not by NZXT. I think this one looks better so ill be sure to show him it later.

  4. Looks good, dont personallly see a need for it however.

  5. Good looking product, but I have never really understand the need for a fan controller. if you get good fans they should be pretty quiet anyway, no need for a windstorm 🙂

  6. I’m thinking about one, as it will solve one of my problems. With external module I can put another RAID backplane inside and stick LXE on the desk with a bit of tape. It is a win – win solution just need to wire cables differently.
