Can't the fans be controlled well enough through software?]]>Jul 2nd 2010 4:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/you = geek]]>Jul 2nd 2010 5:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/
i would disagree, anybody who cares about their computer's fans enough to buy this is a real geek.]]>Jul 2nd 2010 6:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/
ah sorry, you meant to say that i would be a geek if i wanted to buy something like this. then i completely agree :)]]>Jul 2nd 2010 6:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/
These fan controllers will most likely appeal to people with high end liquid cooling systems with big rads and lots of fans.]]>Jul 2nd 2010 8:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/
Most motherboards even high end ones have a maximum of 4 fan headers on the motherboard (which means 4 fans they can control the speed of). Otherwise they have to plug them directly into the power supply.

With this it gives you an extra 5 fans you can directly control, and a lot of cases have around 7 or 8 fans]]>Jul 2nd 2010 8:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/

Yep, i guess that's whet confused me a bit :)]]>Jul 2nd 2010 9:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/I would totally buy one of these if I wasn't running old parts (good at the time) in my computer and if my fans would actually get recognized. I have 6 in my case but SpeedFan only sees 2 and wont let me adjust either of them...]]>Jul 2nd 2010 3:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/
SpeedFan is a software program and so it requires separate hardware, mobo sensors to be specific, to get its readings and control fan speeds. This product is based on its own hardware so it is guaranteed to work on all hardware as long as the power interfaces are compatible, which they should be. ]]>Jul 4th 2010 11:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/Jul 2nd 2010 5:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/

I use their panzerbox and have been drooling at their LCD fan controllers.

Now if only my desk wasn't such a huge mess that I could use this.]]>Jul 2nd 2010 5:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/
This is great for liquid cooling, liquid cooling requires fans and greater fan control for any application is good.

NZXT also makes ONE peripheral from my understanding and that's a mouse. Saying they're taking a break from mouse and keyboard routine is a bit misleading as they're more well known for making computer cases.]]>Jul 2nd 2010 5:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/Jul 2nd 2010 5:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/Jul 2nd 2010 8:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/Jul 2nd 2010 9:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/Jul 2nd 2010 6:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811992004]]>Jul 2nd 2010 6:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/Jul 2nd 2010 8:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/Jul 2nd 2010 9:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/02/nzxts-sentry-lxe-touchscreen-fan-controller-turns-you-into-stor/Oh, and a shit load of other features this thing could never do.
