This review is from: ZALMAN ZM - Reserator1 V2 Water Cooling System
Pros:
Very quiet. You have a separete power switch is nice, you can leave it running to cool the CPU after you have shutdown the PC. This was my very first water cooling system. Easy to install.
Cons:
I only have it connected to the CPU and in my opinion I think the pump is not powerful enough to pump more than CPU and GPU. I have a 8800GTS so I was a little leery since it looks like there is more heat sinks than just the GPU, and the water block for the GPU is just big enough. Does not come with a temp probe.
Overall Review:
the reserator doe get quite warm so it is removing heat. I looked at the BIOS and saw that my CPU was at 115 degrees. Now this may be because I didn't put enough thermal compound. there is'nt must airflow in my room either. I'm cooling an AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600+ Windsor 2.8GHz Socket AM2 Processor. Hasn't crashed yet. It comes with a 500cc bottle of cooling, you are going to need about 1500cc more to fill it 3/4 of the way.
