nVidia's Enthusiast System Architecture Talks Thru USB

Just yesterday, we talked a bit about an interesting USB gauge from Gigabyte that allows you to monitor some aspects of a compatible PSU in your computer system. Today we get some information on a new proposal from nVidia called the Enthusiast System Architecture. ESA is a universal communications standard that controls how data is sent though a USB connection from connected components.

nVidia envisions this as a method to allow an enthusiast to monitor all sorts of system information from the speed of their processor and hard drives to the temperature of the liquid in their water cooling system and power output from their PSU. Some of this monitoring can be done now, but it requires a myriad of applications that may or may not work together. nVidia has reportedly even gone so far as to submit ESA to the USB organization to become an official subset to the USB standard.
