Silverstone CMD01 Commander ESA Edition

Darksaber · Jul 30, 2008

The Silverstone Commander ESA Edition enables complete system monitoring functionality through the nTune System Monitor. Instead of going for one of the few ESA enabled cases out there, the CMD01 Commander gives unprecedented flexibility, as you can enable ESA connectivity for any case of your choice.

I am not impressed. Even on Silverstone product page, the make it sound like it can control 3 lamps. Not just power them, which IMO is useless. So I bought a product thinking it does somthing when in fact it doesn't. Not impressed at all.

Seems fairly pointless to me. Little gain for the outlay.

Seems like an OK product, the fact that it limits itself to Nvidia chipsets my be a huge downfall tho!

The idea is to be able to control the fans lights and temps through Nvidias ESA program..

There isant a lot of ESA hardware yet but if more shows up it would be really cool to have the cooling automatically adjust.

(the 1 thing I dont care for is the .5A per fan spec, wont allow high speed fans)

It doesn't allow control of the lights though.
