Many enthusiasts know how important it is to keep
their systems cool. We have reviewed many heatsinks, fans and
have always discussed temperatures, heat issues, airflow and other
things that will aid in keeping a system cool. Have you ever wondered
what happens to heat when the computer is shut down? Is it still
there? Actually, it slowly dissipates and eventually your system
returns back to its cool and idle system temperatures. Evercool
didn’t think that heat was dissipating fast enough so they
found a solution to fix that.
Evercool introduced ECS – Extended Cooling
System. The idea behind ECS is to let your case fans and CPU fan
run for ten minutes after you shut down your computer. This will
aid in faster cooling hence, increasing the life span of your
components. Let’s take a look at ECS and see if it’s
worthwhile to purchase.
Extras:
There was one extended power cable and four three-pin
fan cables included with the ECS. The power cable will eventually
get connected to the main power cable coming out of the PSU and
then to the motherboard. It will act as the main power source
for the ECS. The three-pin cables were included in the package
for case fans and the heatsink fan.
Product Analysis:
The ECS is gray in color and has a LED in the middle
of the unit. The LED turns green if the ECS is in use and turns
red if the ECS is not in use. On the left side, two power connections
are located and the right side has two connections for fans.
