Although some you may not be familiar with the Chinese Asia Vital Components Co., Ltd. (AVC), it is one of the leaders in the world market. Founded back in 1991 with 65 million dollars authorized capital stock, AVC has now grown to 2.1 billion dollars worth with over 8700 employees. The company specializes on computer components cooling and some other products that is why they work closely with such “monsters” as IBM, Toshiba, Siemens, LG, Intel and AMD. Over the entire lifetime, the company has registered over 200 patents for inventions and innovations in this field.

After taking a quick look at the AVC cooling solutions we decided to dwell on one of them that turned out a brand new product. I am talking about a cooler with a very long hard-to-pronounce name: AVC Extra-Sensory Perception (ESP) Integrating. I have to admit that it sounds too sophisticated and not typical for a CPU air-cooler at all. Besides the unique name, the cooler also seemed very interesting due to 8 heatpipes used in its heatsink design and its claimed ability to cool 200W CPUs. Well, let’s find out how true these claims are.
