That's sad to hear...saw him around. Didn't interact with him though..seemed a really helpful man.
RIP sir...til I need computer help on the other side.
If your on the other side then why not just ask God for computer help.  All jokes aside that is sad to hear of some ones passing.  Yet I dont know the man but as from reading comments he was a very well known person in the community who helped people. Instead of the traditional RIP, I say may he Live In Peace(LIP) on the other side.

I'm very sorry to see this, and offer my condolences to his family. He was very well-liked on many forums, as well as this one. I know that I've messaged him in the past for assistance with EVGA forum members using Corsair products, and he delivered. Truly sad to see one of the really good ones pass on.

RIP Corsair Mike - I never had to ask for his help, but I saw the threads he would post in and he was always helpful. He will be missed.

This kind of thing disturbs me because Mike was much younger than myself. Shouldn't happen to younger people than me.

So why did he die?  He died in his sleep right? So did he have sleep apnea or something similar to it?

If i was going to take a wild guess. I would say he MIGHT of taken too many pain pills with alcohol. No too long ago he mentioned blowing his knee out while riding bmx bike on Corsair forums. I'm not trying to talk bad about him at all.
