CORPORATE PROFILE
Despite the fact that computers have become commonplace at home and at workplaces for a long time, true user-friendliness of the computers is still a long shot. At Zalman Tech, we strive to make that goal a closer reality through extensive research and development of our products. We were the world first in reducing computer's noise down to lower than 20dB, thus creating a more user-friendly computing environment. Now it is possible to use a computer without distracting noise and to form high fidelity audio system or home theatre without ambient noise. Zalman Tech will continue to make efforts at creating more enhanced levels of user friendliness in computing; we believe that we have the ability and determination to achieve this goal. Your support and interest is greatly appreciated.
PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Generally speaking, people look to liquid cooling for one of two reasons, more overclocking headroom or less noise. Given Zalman's reputation for quiet cooling solutions, it's not surprising that their new, improved Reserator 2 liquid cooling system targets the latter group. Zalman has never been afraid to target smaller niche markets with their products and this kit is a good example of this. The Reserator 2 actually represents the third generation of this product. The Reserator 2 kit differs from the original Reserators in almost every respect. I've previously reviewed Zalman's Reserator 1 Plus kit (Review can be found HERE .) and I was pretty satisfied with it. It gave adequate cooling performance and was essentially silent. There were, however, a few niggling issues with the Plus kit that I felt could be improved. I'm anxious to see what changes Zalman has made and how these changes affect performance.
