Steam and psn+ is all you need

The tips that he wrote up are actually some great tips and I stand by them as a fellow poor man gamer. Fortunately I live in the US and it's not as bad as having to budget for a DLC but the 65 dollar games does take a toll the more they are released and closer together.

Being financially challenged forces you to be resourceful and get the games you want, brand new, and at the same time as everyone else. Sometimes it may not happen that way, but with a bit of patience you'll still get what you want.

Ps+ is a great way to games, i'd been downloading the vita games to my ps3 and in march when i bought one i already had a great selection of games.

My tip for gaming on the cheap is make an amazon wish list, stick the games you want on that as its a good way of watching the price drop, so when it's in your price range you can snap it up.

I'm a budget gamer. 70% of games i buy are price drops/sales.
Because of this i have a huge backlog lol.

And if i decide to purchase a $60 game i always pre-order as early as possible, and pay out monthly.

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.
