Just don't rent one from NZXT.

I saw a video on Gamers Nexus about how shitty a company they are. Hopefully word spreads amongst gamers & builders that they're no good and they should be avoided.

What's the deal with them? Only NZXT component i've had is my current case, which has awful airflow (old model of H710 I think, bought 5 ish years ago).

Apparently their PC rental program is a worse value than illegal loans that are likely mafia-backed.

Apparently they very recently got acquired or invested in and are probably looking to increase profits tenfold in under a year so the company can be dumped before it all crashes.

If you are blindly renting things without doing numbers you have bigger issues.

Always read and do long term calculations

Problem is that a lot of "influencers" advertise it to teens as an easy way to get a new computer.

I think that is more on the teens and there parents.
