Then by this logic i should have been a serial killer since i played the hell out of 007 Goldeneye...*Rolls eyes* St@pid media.

SO then Hitler did play video games and that's how he decided to murder the 6+ million Jews during WW2??

I think if Hitler had GTAV he would be too busy to even think about killing 6million jews!

GTA saves lives people!

why not compare tv shows, films or music videos to violent crimes, im sure theres a much bigger influence from those than video games, also i think by carrying out acts of violence or crime in a video game kind of satisfies peoples desires to go do this in real life, so by doing it in a game it would actually prevent them from doing that shit. ive always loved violent games and i dont go round attacking people, theres just a line, some people are just stupid and actually think they could get away with that stuff in real life, and then theres idiots leaving their guns near their children or even giving them guns as a present.

They might have a point, when I was a kid I played a game that influenced me so much I did what I saw in the game. That's right I got a paper route.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

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.
