All new Reserator 1 V2 systems sold by Quiet PC since 3rd September 2009 have been supplied with Zalman's new ZM-WB5 Plus CPU waterblock, which means they are Intel LGA1366 (Core i7) compatible. Behold the Reserator1 V2! The RESERATOR1 V2 is designed for optimal heat dissipation using Zalman's HCET (Heat Capacity Extrusion Technique) technology. As a result, this cooler achieves excellent cooling performance using natural convection, making the RESERATOR1 V2 a very efficient fanless (therefore silent) water cooling system! Unlike any aircooled system, the RESERATOR1 V2 has the ability to keep a processor at just a few degrees above room temperature regardless of CPU speed. This gives tremendous potential for reliability and overclocking. The RESERATOR1 V2 supersedes the (black) RESERATOR1-PLUS, which in turn superseded the original (blue) RESERATOR1. The most obvious difference is the change of colour to a very cool-looking gloss graphite silver, but there are several other improvements too. RESERATOR1 V2 Kit Contents The RESERATOR The most striking aspect about the RESERATOR1 V2 is the tall cylindrical reservoir where all the water is held. It stands nearly 600mm high and weights 6.5Kg. The graphite silver gloss finish looks even better than the RESERATOR1-PLUS's gloss black finish. CPU Water Block, ZM-WB5 Plus The ZM-WB5 Plus is Zalman's latest and best-yet CPU water block. It incorporates a pure copper base for excellent heat transfer, and the cover has been anodised to prevent corrosion. The ZM-WB5 Plus supports Intel Socket 1366 and 775 and AMD Socket 754/939/940/AM2/AM2+/AM3 CPUs, and is designed to be lightweight and easy to install. VGA Water Block, ZM-GWB3 Zalman's new VGA water block is light weight due to being manufactured from pure aluminium. This high performance VGA cooler is anodized and coated to prevent corrosion. The VGA water block is compatible with all graphics cards that have push-pin holes around the GPU, even nVidia's 7900 and ATI's X1900 series! Also available separately is the ZM-RWB1, making it possible to watercool the VGA RAM! Anti-Corrosion Coolant The Anti-Corrosion Coolant supplied with the RESERATOR1 V2 has been designed to prevent corrosion, not only to the RESERATOR but also other materials it comes into contact with including copper, aluminium and plastic. This provides peace of mind for long term operation. It is to be used in conjunction with distilled water only! Quick Release Couplings Another great feature is the Quick Release Couplings. The fittings incorporate valves that prevent leaks when disconnecting the tubing. This provides a quick release mechanism allowing the user to move the PC and RESERATOR1 V2 more easily. New PCI Bracket Other features/items that require a mention include the new PCI bracket that is supplied with the RESERATOR1 V2. Instead of the bolts used on the older RESERATOR1, the new version allows you to pass the pipes through the specially designed PCI bracket and then into the RESERATOR using the Quick Release feature. This makes moving and replacing the liquid much easier. Flow Indicator The Flow Indicator is exactly the same as the one that was previously supplied with the RESERATOR1. The Flow Indicator shows movement of the water offering peace of mind that the water pump is switched on and fully operational. http://www.zalman.co.kr/DataFile/Product/Setup/Reserator1V2(1).swf|500|400||
