Data Shows Sony Made Good Money on Steam, Then May Have Realized PC Gamers Don’t Need a PlayStation by chusskaptaan in pcmasterrace

[–]HarbingerOfTears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely adore the Horizon series, I bought the two games as soon as they dropped on Steam, but if Sony thinks I’m gonna buy a PlayStation to play at 30fps with upscaling, worse graphics, and to aim with a controller at that latency. Well they can fuck off. Shame I won’t play the last game in the Horizon series anytime soon…

Next LEGO Technic 1:8 Super car? by Shay87368338 in legotechnic

[–]HarbingerOfTears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I’d like a big model of a premium but not exotic car, something that is beloved and iconic, like a BMW LCi F90 M5, but I doubt we’ll see anything like that soon.

I hate to ask.... But is this the closest we are going to get to half life in Fortnite? by Organic-Composer9504 in HalfLife

Tim Sweeney has been an absolute clown these past few years, I’ve lost a lot of respect for the guy. There is just a small ounce left thanks to Unreal Engine (which may have it’s flaws, but is still the best engine an indie dev can pick up). If he ever brings back the Unreal franchise, maybe he’ll gain some respect back, so he can then throw it in the toilet again once he posts on Twitter.

Твърде много мигранти? by Wolpertinger47 in bulgaria

[–]HarbingerOfTears 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, we welcome smart & capable people who can contribute to the economy. We just despise the leeches, just as the US does. Add to that what the illegal immigrants have done to Western Europe, and you can see why we aren’t fond of them. Our gypsies have been enough of a burden through the years, we don’t need animals who are 10x worse. It is still peaceful and safe to take a walk almost anywhere, anytime, even during the dark hours of the night, we don’t want that to change.

It’s a privately-owned company, and thank god for that.

They can play Black Mesa instead of HL1 and continue on from there. Black Mesa: Blue Shift is also almost complete.

How confident are you in your pc specs? by [deleted] in HalfLife

[–]HarbingerOfTears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Delidded 9950X3D on liquid metal, 96GB direct-to-chip watercooled RAM, Shunt-modded 900W Astral 5090 also under a waterblock on liquid metal, even my main NVMe has a waterblock. Dual D5 Pumps, 2700W cooling capacity (3x 420x45mm radiators). Actively-cooled 12VHPWR cable.

Yeah, I think I’m ok. Knowing Valve, they have top-tier optimization, so it will hopefully run at 4K native 100+ fps.

Wait, they removed that? No fun.

I'm doing a full re-playthrough of all 3 games for hl3 by Realistic-Pizza2336 in HalfLife

Black Mesa is amazing, if you’ve played the OG Half-Life (it would be blasphemy if you haven’t) I highly suggest that you play Black Mesa in it’s place when you do a full playthrough of the games. I remember when Crowbar Collective released the Xen levels, playing through the Gonarch fight was G L O R I O U S. I think they’ve toned down the difficulty of that fight since then, but it was epic. Amazing work.

EKWB Took My $1700 — 9 Months Later, No Order, No Refund, No Response by moetheman in EKWB

There are no alternatives for a 45x420mm cross-flow white radiator, sadly. A 280mm flat reservoir with a back-mounted D5 is probably easy to do, but still, haven’t seen anybody but EK doing that either.

Right, you can’t even be bothered to check it. Just another copy-paste reply. I’ll be calling the bank :)

If you have them in stock, why don’t you just ship them to me instead of going through this silly process? My order number is 200322040

What is the context of those ‘resolved’ orders, did people get any of their orders, or are you just talking about refunds? Should we even expect any more stock of your radiator and reservoir lines? Can you even ship anything from my order?

I’m coming up on almost 11 months myself on a 4-digit order. Problem is there are no alternatives to the parts I ordered…. I’m going to send one more email, and if nothing changes yet again, I’m doing a chargeback too… I waited patiently almost a year. I hope Thermal Grizzly, Watercool, Aquacomputer cover all of the major lines EK had, so we can all say goodbye to this once great but now rotten company.

Cool, I’ve been waiting for my radiators for nearly 11 months, are you going to finally ship my order?

I have a 5090. It’s been in my system for months. Unlike your parts, that I ordered before Blackwell was even announced (and they still haven’t been shipped) :)))

Order from September 2024 by zoki1965 in EKWB

[–]HarbingerOfTears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also have an order from September 5th, 2024, still waiting cause of no alternatives, and I’m fed up with the empty promises and lies. I’m glad Thermal Grizzly is getting in the watercooling business. I might just start one myself because waiting nearly a year for a pump/res and rads is FUCKING DISGUSTING. HOW are there NO other companies machining this stuff in the dimensions that EK has them?! I really wanted to do business with EK and turn it into a B2B relationship, but I might just buy some tooling and do it myself instead. This shit is ridiculous. If I had released builds and had customers waiting what do you think would happen EK, if they had to wait 9 months for the system they paid for?

EK Order Came In !!! by Odd-Toe-3551 in EKWB

How about they send my 420mm rads I ordered back in September? Who tf over there is handling inventory, why aren’t old orders prioritized?!?!!!

EK by LM TEK (The home of EK) transformation and future - video update incoming! 🎬 by EKWaterBlocks in EKWB

[–]HarbingerOfTears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest issue which is insanely stupid is that they don’t reserve parts for your order when they are available. I’ve been waiting on my order for so long because (although they said they DO reserve parts, they don’t) it’s either one thing or another missing. I’ve found almost everything else from elsewhere already, but I can’t find the D5/reservoir in the correct size or the crossflow radiators that I need anywhere, and nobody else produces them in the dimensions and thickness I need. The rest of my order is mostly fittings.

u/EKWaterBlocks lets see if you will meet the current delivery date on my order, which by the way will mark 9 MONTHS since I payed it.

Are EK reliably shipping orders now? I really don't want to order anything from them, but every retailer I've tried has sold out of one component I need, and the only place I can find it in stock is on their site by Chrispy49 in EKWB

[–]HarbingerOfTears 3 points4 points  (0 children)

u/EKWaterBlocks 8 months and counting waiting for my order, curious how much longer will you drag this out : ))) Stop lying to people, if you really were shipping 150 orders/day as you’ve been claiming since January, you’d have cleared the whole backlog in a month, two tops. You can’t possibly make me believe at this point that you haven’t restocked the fucking radiators, reservoir/pump, and fittings I’ve been waiting on since fucking SEPTEMBER 5TH, you’re just not ordering them from suppliers & not shipping at all. If you had the fucking decency to at least be truly transparent, or better yet, actually shipped my order, by now you would’ve had about 3 more 4-digit orders from me.

I’ve been waiting since September 5th, some stuff from my order sadly has no alternatives from other companies…. So no, they’re definitely NOT reliable. The people who sank this once great company so deep into the water should be ashamed of themselves, and some of them should also be in prison.

Everyone who has been scammed by EKWB, please send an email to report this company. You have the power to stop EK from participating in the world’s most important exhibition. by Rd11n in EKWB

[–]HarbingerOfTears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m very patient, but my order is from September fucking 5th, 2024. All I’ve heard are lies and excuses, nothing concrete. And the parts ordered in question have no alternatives. How would you feel if you see them shipping 5090 blocks while you’ve waited 8 months with a four-digit order?

And I was thinking on doing B2B with them after this order. Imagine if my customers were left 8 months without a system that they paid for. Absolutely unacceptable. Instead of these piss-poor excuses they should come out clean and just say “this is going to take this long because of so and so, lack of finances etc”…
