AMD even though I don't have any AMD products in my computer currently, AMD is like that little kid on the block that everyone wants to succeed. They are the only competition for practically the most expensive parts of your computer so if they are gone, then say goodbye to competition as well.

My rig: i7 930 oc to 3.4 ghz, GA-X58A-UD3R, 6GB of ocz ram, antec nine hundred two, seasonic g 650, gigabyte 7970 OC, 120 GB Samsung 840, 1TB Seagate barracuda. Cm storm trigger mx browns and a steelseries sensei raw.

My favourite is Noctua. Really love everything about them from their superb quality to the customer care (free 1150 mounting kit anyone?). Including the colour scheme.

 

Yes I enjoy the two tone brown, matches my slippers and floorboards.

 

Next along:

Steelseries (like the simple appearance over immense quality and engineering)

Bitfenix (I feel they understand people care what their case looks like)

Samsung (Nearly every storage device I use is made by them plus they made the laptop that got me into PC gaming)

MSI (Love the push they are making towards offering their products in different colours, the clean look of their MoBos and the twin frozr 3 cooler)

ASUS or Corsair, they don't overlap much so you can build a whole PC (even a bleeding edge, top end one at that) using just their products and you know it would be very reliable (You'll need Intel or AMD for the CPU of course).

Acer is really stepping up their game in the laptop department, i've really been impressed and they win one of my top three spots.

I also really like Corsair, you could almost build a whole computer with just corsair: Case, PSU, SSD, RAM, CPU Cooler, Fans. and keyboard and mouse.

also MSI, I have an inner love for them :)

I don't have a favourite, but i do have a soft spot for ROG hardware, they look really good :)

Also secretly supporting AMD.. I want the 'underdog' to come out tops :P, although i won't fanboy their products but rather, go for what's best for the buck atm.
