Dear User
Thank You for your interest in Sentry PC case. We hope you will enjoy using our product.
Sentry is a product directed to the tech-sa y customers and as such requires prior knowledge
and understanding of its principles, e en before ordering parts for a computer assembled in it.
Sentry targets ATX (mITX/SFX) and PCI-E compliant components for their attainability, howe er not all
components (especially GPU’s) on the market follow the ATX and PCI-E specifications mechanical
references, making it impossible to fit all of them inside such small form factor chassis.
Please read the following instructions before your first attempt to build inside Sentry. If you are missing
any parts or ha e other issues with the case, please contact us at [e-mail].

5Preparations
Before you proceed to start your build inside Sentry 2.0, make sure
your components work outside the case. In situation of a part being
faulty and not working out of the box, it will sa e your time.
Always ground yourself when working with electronic components.
Prepare some space on a table or desk before starting your build.
It is recommended to use some kind of soft surface for the build,
like a full desk mouse pad/anti-esd build mat or a blanket.
Make sure there aren’t any loose screws, any sharp elements or
small crystalline particles on the build surface, that could scratch
either the case or your table, before placing the case body on it.
Always make sure to keep loose screws in one place where you
ha e control o er them. Magnetic tray may help you organise them.

User Manual
Sentry 2.0 AIO configuration makes cable management extremely
challenging and is recommended only to experienced PC builders.
If you plan on using 120 mm All-In-One closed-loop liquid cooling
inside your Sentry 2.0, please read the following instructions carefully.
It is recommended to use standard profile memory sticks when using
AIO in Sentry 2.0, as most of the space abo e them will be occupied by
cables mo ed there in order to make space for liquid cooling hoses.
Before you start, detach any mounting brackets from your AIO liquid
cooler CPU block. If your cooler is in factory condition, don’t remo e
the cold plate protection just yet.
Wrap the CPU block with some soft material like a towel or packaging
foam and make sure it won’t fall off on its own. This will pre ent it from
scratching anything around while you are focused on mounting other
components in the case.
It is important because the liquid cooler CPU block will be mounted on
the CPU as one of the last components in your build. If you can’t find a
safe way to wrap it, you can ask someone to hold it for you while you
are building your system, but it will take some time.

AIO Package Compati ility
optional step – AIO CONFIG
Total space for 120 mm AIO Liquid Cooling radiator and fan package is 50 mm.
Recommended configurations
- Standard 27 mm thick radiator + Slim 20 mm thick fan (total package thickness of 47 mm)
- Slim 22 mm thick radiator + Standard 25 mm thick fan (total package thickness of 47 mm)
Radiators thicker than 27 mm were not tested and are most likely incompatible due to tube bending
radius limitation. Tubes need to bend tightly in order to fit under the chassis cover.
Getting close to 50 mm of total package thickness will limit airflow between the fan and chassis cover.
