EK Water Blocks, for those who don't know and haven't clicked. They make cooling systems for gaming PCs.https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/ekwb-reportedly-plagued-with-financial-disarray
Sounds like a prelude to bankruptcy. Also sounds like an incredibly badly run company. Difficult business to be in though I guess.I wonder if their lawyers are getting paid...
I'm sorry, if I wasn't paid for more than one pay period, and zero check on period 2...I'm getting a lawyer.It's an easy win. The employee makes more than missed checks and guaranteed pay day for lawyer.
Lawyer not even necessary in some areas, can just contact department of labor and they will go after them.
I remember when EK was just Edvard König selling stuff on XtremeSystems.orgGranted, my interest in overclocking and cooling peaked in the mid noughties, but I had no idea EK had gotten this big.
Yes, some 20 years ago, even before the first logo or company.The first logo was always so funny to me (so bad that kinda good):

Thank you. I really didn’t want to watch a 36 minute video to get the basics.
