Fanboy and religious extremists both have something in common: they’re closed-minded dolts.
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

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.

I think people get confused with being a fanboy and having a preference.
I mean i could say i like the PS3 over the XBOX 360, now that doesnt make me a fanboy, thats just my preference. But on N4G i would be known as a fanboy.
Or how i prefer Katy Perry over Megan Fox, now that doesnt make me a Katy Perry Fan, i just think Megan Fox is way overhyped!
Majority of people labelled fanboys on N4G are labelled that because of thier preference.
The fanboys are the ones that say 'i would never buy a product from [insert company]' because thier fanboyism religion wont let them by a competitors product.
The term fanboy is just a way to insult another gamer; of course, it's not very intelligent to call others fanboys just because you disagree with them.
It's a poor way of communicating ideas, and just something that creates conversation. The only people with an issue are the ones who complain about people using the term fanboy.
God forbid you post an article like this:

The SDF attacks in full force. LOL
why should someone be forced to like everything for? i like playstation & the rest do nothing for me
Fanboyism. trolls. i think gamers on the web are just so sensitive its a pain. say something negative about their gaming console and you a fanboy or troll. its like they have no sense of humour. the article below this one, ways of avoiding rrod. sure people are having fun, have a laugh. its not like they telling every 360 owner that is what they have to do or else they will get shot! ok, if its a personal attack on you specifically you have every right to be upset. but you are not sony/microsoft/nintendo. if people diss the 360/ps3 why get upset, unless deep down you feel they are right and now you feel like an idiot for buying that console.
