Zalman's Booth
Zalman's booth with more than just more variations of the circular heatsink design.
They've got the coolers and now they have the case. Presenting the Zalman Fatal1ty Champion series FC-ZE1 elite gaming casing. Tool-free, 5mm of fully anodized aluminum with laser etched graphics. Two 92mm front intake, one 120mm rear exhaust fan. Front I/O with card reader and of course, only comes in black with red lighting.
Close up of the front panel shows a Creative Fatal1ty X-Fi panel and ABIT Guru Panel. Surely the interior CPU and graphics will be using Zalman Fatal1ty coolers and Zalman's Fatal1ty PSU.
That's right, Zalman even has a range of Fatal1ty Champion series modular power supply units. The FC-ZP6HP is a 600W PSU featuring patent pending heat-pipe internal diode cooling, increased bridge and rectifier diodes for reduced heat, higher 12V outputs and lowered switching circuitry.
With all your Fatal1ty gear, Zalman figures you'll need to game in style. The ZM-RS6F+M are a pair of surround headphones that actually comes with six 40mm diaphragms for front, center and rear channels to replicate surround sound instead of a virtual algorithm. The headphones are connected to the ZM-RSA headphone amplifier, which can actually amplify two sets at the same time with independent controls. The ZM-RSA can connect to PC surround sources or home theater systems with a pre-amp output.
The latest incarnation of Zalman's fanless water cooling solution, the Reserator 2.
The TNN 300 micro ATX casing from Zalman is a compact beauty that sports a totally fanless interior cooling solution with internal heat-pipes.
The HD160 is a sexy full aluminum casing designed for media center PCs. It can mount full size ATX motherboards, can operate with quiet cooling up till 130W CPU TDP and features a 17-in-1 card reader.
