Which Tech brands do you trust most?


Probably Intel. Sure, it might be a little pricy (especially SSDs), but their reliability is impeccable. I had a Pentium over 12 years and it still worked (probably would still work if the rest of the components didn't die).

My PC: MSI X99s SLI PLUS///Intel i7 5820k///Corsair H100i///Crucial DDR4 12GB///EVGA Supernova Gold 750w G2///ASUS GTX 1080 Strix///Phanteks Enthoo Luxe///Intel 730 240GB SSD///WD Blue 1TB///Intel 6250 WiFi
Current Peripherals: Sennheiser HD598///Corsair K70 LUX///Logitech MX Master///Razer Destructor 2///Saitek X52///Acer X34 Predator

My most trusted brand would half to be Microsoft. But one of the most dependable brands is going to be a throw up between ASUS and Logitech.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

I've gotta give my vote to Western Digital. The computer I just replaced has a WD hard drive still in it after a whole seven years of running, and the last ~1.5 years it had to run 24/7, but never gave out. Even when I didn't know jack about tech I bought an external hard drive from WD, back in mid 2011, just because I had their hard drive in my computer and it had never given me problems so I knew I could trust them. Though I'm on an SSD in my new system, if I ever have to buy or recommend a hard drive ever again it will 100% be a Western Digital one.

After pondering for about a minute. I would say Intel.

 

They put so much more RND into their products than so many other companies, it's silly. It basically took them a year of just testing the 830 SSD before they put it out on the market.

 

There's always that weird little bug that their CPUs have from time to time. Not something any normal person would stress about, but annoying to some. https://randomascii.wordpress.com/2014/10/09/intel-underestimates-error-bounds-by-1-3-quintillion/

I don't have a most trusted brand. All of them have both wonderful and shitty products.
 

In any case, I think brand loyalty isn't a good thing. I like to try out other things.

Favourite brands are Cooler Master, Intel, AMD, Corsair, WD, Hitachi, Dell, Swiftech... Argh, I just can't name them all, there are so many good ones! How can I pick just one?

Ive done 2 builds now with them and they've been nothing but good to me.

Coca Cola.

I love coke.

I love Corsair but their tramp stamp logo fiasco disappointed me.

I loved Asus and Gigabyte but they've let me down before too.

But an ice cold Coke..... mmmm

For me it's Phanteks, I've literally just finished a water cooling build in the Entho Primo and my god the quality in that case is amazing quality, everyone I went to try to work our how to do something, they'd already thought of it and built a feature into the case.

It depends on what component. A few are Kingston, WD, Perixx, Intel, and AMD.

BTW I actually don't find EA to be that bad. They only seem to be going uphill now.
