Linus Tech tips coverage of CES 2014 is brought to you by nc.com your source for

00:00:05.319 --> 00:00:11.559
great technology selection and service along with Corsair memory and Western

00:00:09.920 --> 00:00:14.879
Digital hey guys we're here at the zman suite checking out the reserator 3 Max

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:18.039
duel I know some of you will remember the reserator 3 max review I had from a

00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:23.240
while ago where it was thrown under the bus a little bit but we'll have to see how this one performs in the office

00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:27.240
later on in a later date it has a few definitely redeeming features first and

00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:30.359
foremost there's removable fans and the cable management for those fans is

00:00:28.720 --> 00:00:35.000
actually quite cool it runs through the middle of each of the 120 mm sides and

00:00:33.160 --> 00:00:38.879
gets cable managed behind it in a little space nice little pocket it's got there

00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:42.320
which is actually pretty neat and then it also has center mounted tubes

00:00:41.120 --> 00:00:46.800
something You' seen in a lot of builds is people will turn their radiator around and then the tubing has to go

00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:49.680
over their RAM or if it's on the other side there's way too much tubing or

00:00:48.199 --> 00:00:54.199
whatever happens there so it's actually kind of cool because you don't have to cross way over top of the motherboard

00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:58.239
which is nice for features other than that it's fairly standard Fair other

00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:03.120
than the shrouds on the fans and it has the same mounting mechanism that it had

00:00:59.960 --> 00:01:05.479
in the zman reserator 3 Max originally

00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:08.799
next up we have the z15 or z15 depending on where you're from this one has a few

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:14.200
cool features so the control panel on the top uh aside from standard fair

00:01:10.960 --> 00:01:16.280
being us two USB 3.0 2 USB 2.0 a hard

00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:20.920
drive LED reset button power button mic and headphone ports it also has some

00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:25.200
interesting fan control so you have your normal not too surprising dials for

00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:28.320
front rear and top but one cool thing about these is you can completely turn

00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:32.000
the fans off a lot of them you just turn them down these ones you can completely

00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:35.680
turn them off which is quite cool and the coolest part is right now I have it

00:01:34.360 --> 00:01:41.079
in what I like to call and one of the other guys here likes to call Lamborghini mode where it's all flared

00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:45.600
up and looks super awesome and is a little bit flarey and you can turn it

00:01:43.759 --> 00:01:48.399
down so if if you're gaming you can have it in this mode and if your mom comes

00:01:47.240 --> 00:01:54.040
and uses the computer and goes on Facebook she can have her nice calm sedan so she can calm down and have a

00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:57.799
cool day and it's fine and everything's down it's not too super flare it's not

00:01:55.680 --> 00:02:02.000
out there it's okay one of the other cool things too though is that you can

00:01:59.960 --> 00:02:07.719
have it on auto based on temperature settings so 35° or 45° both Celsius now

00:02:06.360 --> 00:02:11.879
if it gets above either one of those thresholds it will then open the top go

00:02:10.119 --> 00:02:17.760
into Lamborghini mode which is not the name for it but it'll go into Lamborghini mode and just it's cool how

00:02:16.040 --> 00:02:21.280
that's Auto and it's cool how that works just so seamlessly so if you had it on

00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:24.599
auto and your mom went on Facebook it would automatically go into sedan mode

00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:27.680
which is also not the name for it and then if you decide to start gaming it

00:02:26.040 --> 00:02:31.280
would automatically go up if the system got that hot and finally we have the

00:02:29.239 --> 00:02:36.480
zalar the front camera on the zbar is 720p the rear camera on the zbar is 480p

00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:39.440
and that's pretty good resolution but they have a new one coming up at some

00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:42.879
point in time which is going to have a front camera of 1080p which will be

00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:46.080
really nice and a rear camera of we're not entirely sure yet it has quite a few

00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:49.599
features that is really nice for evidence building first off is the rear

00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:53.200
camera which I've already stated but then you can also plug in a GPS which

00:02:51.720 --> 00:02:58.640
will state how fast you're going and where you were on a Google map so if you're reviewing the information from

00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:02.800
the zbar and trying to present it to someone say you could see see the front

00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:07.280
camera the rear camera your speed and your GPS location which is absolutely

00:03:05.200 --> 00:03:10.400
awesome the camera also has a gyro in it so it can figure out if there was a

00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:14.080
collision so say you're parked you're not in your car it's not currently

00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:17.040
recording and someone Rams into you it will take some pictures and start

00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:19.799
recording so that you can figure out who that was so even if you're not in the

00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:24.640
car you can still build evidence if there was an accident thank you for watching our zman content if you want to
