Apple. Overpriced products, poor customer service, the fact it's very hard to change the battery on an iPhone yourself, I could go on.

[Orboe]

Apple because I do not like IOS or Mac OS.

[theninja35]

Microsoft because I'm a special flower.

[LabRat]

Intel......... for fighting the payment of misconduct levied against them after 10 years of litigation. ( antitrust lawsuit )

[DarkBlade2117]

I can't say Apple, I don't personally agree with them but some of their products are alright

Asus or Corsair has to be up there. I just see them as fanboy companies which products that come with a premium price that people look over because ASUS AND CORSAIR YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

It won't stop me from buying one of their products if it is good, Corsair had the best deal on RAM at the time of Purchase so I got it.

Razer or Nvidia is probably up there.

1. Razer/Nvidia

2. Asus/Corsair

I can't put these in a direct order but Razer and Nvidia top Asus/Corsair. Though, I would have no problem buying products from any of these companies if they prove worthy.

Apple, they wont sell OSX, FCP, or Garageband to pc users... I need them so... Hackintosh.

Razer are a very strong contender mainly because non of their products seem to justify the absurd price tag. Now, I don't exactly mind something costing an arm and a leg assuming the product is at least properly built and functional. That is the main reason i despise the Blade series of laptops - they fail at almost everything due to cheap materials on the heatsinks and crap quality control. Overall, if Razer make the heatsinks copper, slightly larger and get the fans to at LEAST 50dB (currently they are 60dB) then I'd be fine with it even if the damn thing were to cost 3000$. Just get the temps under 90*C under max load and don't allow the chassis temps to reach 60 fucking degrees centigrade. The end.

TRIGGERED

[Prysin]

#1 Microsoft -> for ruining everything they touch

#2 Nvidia -> for deceiving and screwing over their own customers AND the PC Gaming community with shoddy "developer tools".

#3 Razer/Logitech -> Fanboy companies that spend more time pleasing the plebs then producing quality ass stuff

#4 ASUS -> for not giving a shit about quality outside of one segment

#5 AMD -> for fucking up the CPU market.

To his defense, some of Corsair's products are absolute garbage. e.g Corsair VS PSU series

I shouldn't say I hate Corsair but more or less there fans, I don't particularly see why their Mice, Keyboards and Cases get so much attention. Yeah, they are better than Razer but it still isn't "it". And I guess there PSUs are a bit pricey but you can find them cheaper than EVGA, XFX or SeaSonic sometimes and have very similar quality

Much rather prefer say Zowie, Mionix or Steelseries for mice.

Ducky or Steelseries ( Rosewill because the only RGB CherryMX Black keyboard, props to them )

For Cases, Phanteks, BeQuiet! and NZXT.

[Notional]

NVidia.

• Overpriced products
• Proprietary technologies/products, that created vendor lock-in (forcing you to stay in their eco system due to high switching costs), like Gsync.
• Questionable business ethics, like GameWorks gimping both older NVidia cards and AMD cards.
• Planned obsolescence, meaning the cards are made and supported to work for a couple of years, before it's obsolete. Usually due to things like too little VRAM, poor DX12 support, lack of optimization of the newest titles, etc. Just look at the state og Kepler now. It's sad.

NVidia is essentially copying the modus operandi of Apple.

Some of their cases are nice, but others look rather childish and tacky.

Only case I'd ever buy from them is the Air 240, other cases I just look at and think "meh"

[FilipSebik]

Apple, Razer and Alienware. Everyone is a big thief which stoles money only for its brand

Air 240 and 540, maybe the 400qc or whatever, the carbide and obisidan lines not the graphite line for me.

Now that's an upgrade! I'm stuck with my laptop iGPU without modern drivers half the time, but then the other half, I get my 970.

[Hero7750]

Right now nvidia because their gpu prices are ridiculous.
