"With all the advances and new releases in the computer industry this summer, it's easy to overlook the smaller things that often play excellent support roles. One of these devices in particular happens to be a fan controller. Not just any fan controller, but the NZXT Sentry LX. Today we'll have a look at whether NZXT has delivered a winning product or one that you can live without. For those of you that don't know, NZXT has been around for a few years now, focusing their efforts primarily on cases. This is the second fan controller to come from NZXT, following the Sentry 1.

Many people consider fan controllers to be an unnecessary extravagance and look down on anyone that would spend their money on one. For many people, noise is a primary factor when selecting a case, video card, fans and other accessories for a new build. For others it is all about achieving the lowest temperatures possible. A fan controller, when properly put to use, can greatly assist in balancing ever-rising case temperatures with the amount of noise produced."
