Back in 2004, Zalman released the immensely popular Reserator1: the large torpedo-shaped fanless water cooling kit. 2006 saw the release of the Reserator 2 which built on the success of the Reserator1. Zalman have now released the third product to boast the Reserator name, the Reserator XT! Just like its predecessors, the Reserator XT has been designed to be extremely quiet. Although not fanless, the Reserator XT offers increased performance to allow it to cool the very latest CPUs from Intel and AMD. Processors running in excess of 150W pose no problem for the cooling abilities of the Reserator XT.
The look of the Reserator XT has radically changed compared with the Reserator 1 and 2. The torpedo and radiator looks have been replaced with a more streamlined compact feel. The dials and buttons at the front of the unit give it an look of classic elegance, and the whole outer case of the Reserator XT is manufactured from pure anodised aluminium.
The Reserator XT's integrated 140mm fan can be controlled in one of two ways. The first option is fully automatic control, where the flow rate of the coolant and the Reserator's fan speed increases depending on the temperature of the coolant. This is ideal if you are a keen gamer or like to overclock your system. It gives peace of mind that when things warm up, extra cooling will be provided. S
The second option is to control the unit's cooling manually. This option is best for customers who require minimum noise. The flow rate and the fan speed can be lowered so that the unit runs extremely quietly. Another possibility for the manual control method is for customers who require maximum cooling at all times.
