    Xigmatek did not have a US distributer for the longest time. They are the OEM for Kingwin (RVT-9225, RVT-12025, RVT-12025D. At first, people would get together over the net, buy them in bulk, and have them sent to the US. Then FrozenCPU then started selling them in limited quantities at $40 a pop.

    Then Kingwin started producing them late last year and started selling them in the US.

    Now newegg is recently selling Xigmatek OEM (as well as their TIM).

    Still cheaper to buy Kingwin for a couple dollars less. They also carry all 3 of the Xigmatek's (92mm, 120mm, 120mm "D"-version) styles.

    I'm not sure that Kingwin will seel the "Red Scorpian" version as it looks like Xigmatek has found a US distributer now (at least from the looks of it).

    I doubt Kingwin can produce themself because they are relatively small company. I am pretty sure either Xigmatek or someone is oem for them. Judging by the packaging, I think Xigmatek is the one oem for them, if thats not the case then it will be some low quality China factory is doing the production for them.
