To the NZXT community. We’ve heard your concerns. We are aware of the recent claims made against us and are actively reviewing the situation. Rest assured, we are committed to addressing this thoroughly and will share an official statement soon
That’s the whole response.
We all complain sometimes that people don’t read the article. But when the article can be so easily summed up like this, why should we bother?
Oh, the article is about 4-5x that long before getting to that quote from NZXT’s Instagram feed.
Right, that’s what I’m saying. It’s a rehash summary of the Gamers Nexus vid interspersed with advertisements before getting to the point.
It doesn’t sound like there’s much that can be changed though. The business model is just ripping people off.
not defending all of nzxt’s deal here or anything but tbf, there is some substantial risk involved with shipping a $1000-2000+ product that will only ever depreciate in value, and only getting a small fraction of that up-front. and the ones most likely to use a ‘subscription’ or ‘rental’ for a relatively expensive pc are those who wouldn’t qualify for a credit card with sufficient limit to purchase on its terms (or have already maxxed theirs), a retail store’s payment plan (like no interest over 12mo deal at bestbuy or similar), or a buy over time service (like affirm).
