History

Founded in 1987, ECS is headquartered in Taiwan with operations in North America, Europe and the Pacific Rim. The company merged with PCChips (Hsing Tech Enterprise Co., Ltd), a major manufacturer of low-cost motherboards, in 2005. In June 2003, ECS was selected for two years in a row for Business Week magazine's exclusive Information Technology 100 list.

On 10 April 2013, ECS unveiled Durathon, where all ECS motherboards are tested beyond industry standards for durability, stability, and reliability, as well as materials used in the manufacture of its motherboards. The name Durathon derives from the words durable and marathon, which refers to each motherboard's rigorous testing methods in extreme environmental conditions.
