With the Game Developers Conference in full swing, a lot of developers feel the need to impress fans and game journalists by throwing swanky parties. Mojang, the studio behind everyone’s favorite LEGO-set-disguised-as-a-video- game, Minecraft, threw their own party under the title “.party0” that included an appearance by Skrillex.
But there was controversy brewing, and it had nothing to do with questionable taste in music.
EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.

a gamer is a gamer.
women or man, child or adult.
from the hardcore (playstation)
to the casual (nintendo, microsoft)
were all equal.
So much fun could be had with those ladies, I could leave the games for abit.
Problem is who cares, when those same women will gladly take your money just to get paid to walk around.
I could understand if they were being mistreated but how is it any ones fault when they are probably models who sit around waiting for a call? Who cares if they were paid or not, definitely nothing new models just being paid to look pretty.
Goes both ways, you can't have all this talk about women and equality but then those women could give a shit about being equal.
in time this too shall pass
Yeah how dare they chain these women up and have them parade around... Oh wait they get paid to do this.
