Not a huge fan of Corsairlink but I like the ability to be able to measure and monitor system metrics real time.. Currently I can identify and tune the cooling fans (water cooled), ram temp, cpu temp, rad temp, GPU temp and modify GPU fans,  drive temps, power supply etc. etc
 
I am running an ASUS x79 motherboard but as I build up other systems i would certainly entertain to a pure EVGA environment but monitoring is important to me so I  was curious if EVGA has some form of similar software?

    Not a global all inclusive software like Corsair Link - but I have to tell ya, I do not even use or have installed the Link software, and that would be just for my H100i. It runs great without the software, and from all I have been reading about the software, especially with Windows 8.1., think I am way better off not using it.
     
    EVGA does offer a great monitoring/tweaking tool with EVGA Precision for the video card, they also offer the E-Leet utility for motherboard monitoring, and tweaking/testing from within the windows environment for overclocks - but I much prefer to do that in the bios, rather than in a windows utility. They do not offer anything for controlling the fans, and the fan control functions in the bios is rather iffy as well - certainly not a strong point for them.
     
    For global monitoring, I use the registered version of AIDA 64 Extreme, and Precision for my video card.

    I have a complete link setup LEDs and fan controller most of which sits in a box the H100i for some reason is not detected thou the USB 2.0 headers but if you plug it in to USB 3.0 (with adaptor) it works as well it normally does which doesn't work very well also in my experience the corsair link software it blocks other software giving you vary bad temps for starters with the EVGA CPUZ software it also blocks the memory information I have tried the link software across 3 different plat form's an AMD ASrock 990FX extreme 4 and Intel DX79SI and the EVGA X79 Dark all with similar results  as far  as I use the H100i I use the software to set the fan speed and turn on the LEDs then I uninstall the link software. I imagine that ASUS and corsair are pretty tight, corsair almost always has an ASUS board in their demo case pictures so the software I think is likely to work at its best with an ASUS board that being just a theory of mine. anyway I use a Binfenix recon which has 5 fan controllers with each one having its own temp probe tells you fan speed and temp also has an alarm for fan speed and temp out of range  the rest of my fan speeds  are adjusted thru bios and the EVGA CPUZ tells you core temps voltage regulator temps and all voltages and memory timings plus its the EVGA in OS overclocking tool so can adjust the voltages also. hope that helps

    I like to use the corsair link just to see what my system is pulling power wise. Other than that no use for it.

     NO, I think that its possible thru the EVGA power supply that uses a link type software also their is the VGA link thru the Dark board I have not seriously looked in to it because I lease my Video cards and it requires some miner mod to the video card
