I have the Sentry 2 in my sig rig because my mobo doesn't have enough fan headers for my front case fan and two fans on my rad. I didn't have any luck getting the probes close enough to my CPU or GPU's, so I run the fans on manual, which has been working great so far. The beeping every time you push a button was really annoying, but can be turned off with a tap of the power button. Problem being, I had to figure that out myself due to the lack of instructions that came with it. I also had to put a screw in one side to hold the thing in place, as it wasn't quite stable enough to push on with my finger (as is required by the touch screen) using only the tool-less mount in my CM Storm Enforcer. All in all, though I'm quite happy with it.
