RESERATOR 1 Plus Optional Components ● Northbridge Water Block (ZM-NWB1) This anodized, pure aluminum block is built for high performance cooling, and is designed for board compatibility with a wide variety of northbridge chipsets. ● Power Supply By implementing heat-sensor circuitry that controls the fan’s speed in relation to the temperature within the power supply, noise is significantly reduced, making this component suitable for noiseless systems.
RESERATOR 1 Plus 5. Installation Guide Before installing the product on a PC, check each water block and the reserator for leaks. 5. 2 Determine the Placement of the Reserator The reserator’s placement should be determined in relation to the position of the PC. Place it upright next to or slightly above the PC. Note that if the Reserator is placed lower than the PC, the silicone tube’s internal air pressure may prevent proper initial operation.
