The new enermax PSUs run your fans for a short while after shutdown. This is a very useful feature, especially if you OC.
On this page it's the "Smart Fan" feature listed for all of the 1.3 units:Originally posted by: PorBleemo

After PC shuts down, cooling fans keep running for at least 2 minutes to effectively cool down parts and hardwares inside PSU and PC cases. Thus, ensure longer product life time of power supply and hardwares inside PC case.

This would seem to me very trivial. So what if the fans are on an extra two minutes? Cooling for an extra two minutes really doesn't help enough to run out and buy it for this feature alone. For those that say that the fans aren't on so the equipment gets hot, I don't think that is correct either. If there is no power to the components in effect they are losing heat. The fans speed up this process yes, but the heat is no different then if you had left your computer on another 5-10 minutes. No biggie IMO...
But then again... I like to replace things often.
