The video offers a hands-on CES 2014 tour of Zalman’s latest PC hardware and car camera offerings, focusing on the Reserator 3 Max Dual liquid cooling system, the Z15 computer case, and Zalbar car cameras. The host highlights several redeeming design features in the Reserator 3 Max Dual, notably removable fans and improved cable management that routes behind the radiator sides, along with center-mounted tubing that avoids obstruction around RAM and motherboard components. The Z15 is showcased with a top-mounted control panel that includes USB ports and a distinctive fan-control system, enabling full fan shutdown and a unique auto mode that adapts to temperature thresholds. A playful “Lamborghini mode” is demonstrated, switching the front panel into a flarey, high-visibility profile for gaming, while a more subdued sedan mode is available for normal use; both modes can auto-adjust based on predefined temperature targets. The Zalbar car camera lineup is discussed next, detailing front and rear camera resolutions (720p and 480p respectively), the upcoming 1080p front camera, and GPS and gyro features that enable speed tracking, location mapping, and collision detection to capture evidence even when the car is stationary. The host emphasizes the practical value of the camera system for incident review, noting GPS-linked playback and auto-activation in the event of a collision. The video closes with thanks to sponsors and a prompt to subscribe for more CES 2014 coverage, underscoring the team’s ongoing coverage of Zalman’s latest technology.
