What are your top 3 pc brands and why? I'll start.

1. CORSAIR- I love everything about them; the looks of their products, customer service, everything.

2. ASUS- I love their products too they look awesome, performance for dollar is usually pretty good, and great build quality.

3. SAMSUNG- I love Samsung they are great build quality but are a bit too much money and their phones are starting to lack in build quality compared to others. But still i do really like their products overall.

I run my own indie game company called Color Dragon Studios where we are currently making a 2d platformer game called Small Earth.

ASUS - I've had great luck with all of the stuff they've made.

Corsair - My CX430M is proving to be a tough bastard to kill.

EVGA/Samsung (tie) - EVGA because they have really good support, Samsung because my 840 EVO is one of the best things I have ever bought.

MSI -- never been disappointed. Before it was ASUS, but too much problems with them drove me away. Their products also interest me more aesthetically than others...yes, that's a good enough reason!

 

Corsair -- great products. Again, never been disappointed.

 

EVGA -- owned a few of their products, was surprised considering some of my friends complain about them...

I don't have enough experience for my opinion to really matter but,

Asus (my mobo is asus, it works, although I think the temp sensors are messed up, as the only way for me to get accurate temps that make any sense are through the bios, which could have just been something I messed up so :\ )

Corsair (some of my fans, and my case, loving both)

Seasonic (my power supply, has not missed a step at any time, don't even think I've ever heard it)

Adata (my ram, it works, no complaints)

EVGA (my gpu, seems to work good I guess, hard to tell with my shit monitor)

Samsung (my ssd, I almost miss loading screens, but then they disappear and I dont anymore lol)

No order.

 

Sony. Making my VAIO E series and just being Sony.

ADATA. Having rigorously tested products that exceed their rivals. 

Corsair. RM650 and C70 proving to be great, H100i not so much.

I don't hold any real bias. So long as I'm getting something good for my money, then well, I'm getting something good for my money. As an example of this, all of my PC parts and accessories and whatnot are all from different manufacturers.

*Except for the wireless card, but that was because, again, it was a very good wireless card for how much I could spend on one.

Don't have one.

 

I get whatever is best value for the money.

 

There are certain brands that I try to avoid though.

Oneplus 6 | Sony 55" X900F . Lenovo Y540 17" 144Hz RTX 2060 . i7 9750h. 

Audio-GD DAC-19MK3 > Schiit Lyr 2 + > FOSTEX TH900 . Sony XBA-Z5

1. Samsung, they have lasted pretty long.

2. AMD, tough one.

3. Steelseries, cool.
