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.
I tried playing Medal of Honor FrontLine last night and I could not get pass the beach level - I was thinking to my self how the hell did we ever play with out regenerating health. no sprint, no cross hair, no hud.
After playing the game for 5 minutes it made me appriciate the graphics that we have now and will never complain about graphics again.
There was a certain magic about games of old that isn't quite the same today. Don't get me wrong - I love gaming right now - but there was a certain something about the likes of Dizzy and Pyjamarama, Bubble Bobble and Rainbow Islands. Anyone remember North & South or Another World. All these relentless annual updates and FPS games that keep rehashing old ground... they lack a certain something, don't they?
GamesMaster was brilliant. And Bad Influence...
I wouldn't say games were any better in the old days, but gamers were better in the old days. Modern gamers complain like middle aged women on their period over the smallest things.
North and South - fantastic fun :)
Some of my favourites that still get me hooked today when I go on a nostalgic game run are Return of the Heracles, Cytron Masters (1st rts game), most titles from Synapse Software and Big Five, Archon, Mule and some of the text adventures that put your imagination into overdrive mode!
But the single biggest difference compared to today was everybody could also easily learn to program as the hardware architecture was open to all with tons of resources including magazine game/utility listings.
