A Mad Catz product that hasn't broken? I call BS. Those things die on me so quick I feel possessed.

My Cyborg R.A.T 7 has lasted for a year and very rarely I have to unplug it and plug it back in. It's also very comfortable

Life.exe is missing

I love your username...

And I actually only have store bought PC's by Lenovo. Their older stuff is actually better in my opinion. My old IdeaCentre had the sh*ttiest PSU ever though.... 

The title is brands to avoid, I just avoid them. It's not really really bad, just I prefer something else.

 

Older lenovo's were actually not bad either. It was probably even better than Dell, but now all pre-builts have tricks up their sleeve.

 

Thanks, Cows Go Roar.

Here's a list on the top of my head. They contain every component.

acer

lenovo (getting better now)

Biostar

ECS

Foxconn

Jetway

Apevia

Azza

Apex

Diablotek

Raidmax (never in my life I will trust them)

Rosewill (getting better, still quite crappy though)

Zalman (getting better)

 

LG microwaves are great, I have one that is 7 (almost 8) years old and still working. Just a little louder than before and occasionally heats up too much or too little.

 

 

I'll keep adding more. 

acer got better recently too. their cheap stuff is cheap, just like everyone elses though.

Huggies.  Talk about shitty, they can't even make it through half a day without needing to be replaced.

It may be this sub-human that is defective, but I can't find the warranty card it.  I've no idea why Linus bought two of these.  I don't recommend it.

i agree with you on Raidmax, i bough a case that i regret. 

I was about to buy the Raidmax 535W Thunder PSU, but thankfully LTT community halted me in less than minute to not get it. I'm so happy, I'm using a Corsair TX650M. My components would be fried by now if I got Raidmax.

Sorry, maybe I didn't make sense. I've never had a Mad Catz product that lasted more than a week... Same goes for LG but maybe a year of use outta them.

Ooooooohhhhh...

I bought 2 MSI laptops, both turned out to be broken within 2 days. I avoid MSI laptops now.

Lets be serious, has anyone ever heard of a good biostar product?

HP stands for Horrible Products.

Also Alienware, Diablotek, Rosewill.

Out of three, only one of my Toshiba HDD's is still alive and that's because I'm not using it anymore. Seagate and Hitachi have been quite reliable for me though. One Seagate drive has crapped out, but I think that's because it was running too hot.

My MadCatz mouse is fine so far. I hope it doesn't die as well because I quite like it, being able to scroll horizontally and all. I hope there isn't too much that can go wrong with it if you're gentle, right?

If I'd avoid anything it'd be Medion. For portable machines the build quality just isn't good enough.

I cannot be held responsible for any bad advice given.

I've no idea why the world is afraid of 3D-printed guns when clearly 3D-printed crossbows would be more practical for now.

My rig: The StealthRay. Plans for a newer, better version of its mufflers are already being made.

What about Rosewill cases? I've only heard good about those in recent years.

There are so many other cases that look better have decent airflow as well.

 

I admit, the Rosewill THOR V2 case looks awesome though, but like I just said, the Cooler Master HAF-X is the exact same and has a tiny window cut-out, and CM has a great repetition.

it's more like

"what phone is that'

"OnePlus One"

"wait wat like the HTC One?"

"No it's by OnePlus"

"wat"

"Like the company is OnePlus, and the phone is called the One"

"wat"

I just tell people it's a special phone that you have to bee *allowed* to purchase. Than they stare at me in awe and behold my phone like the second coming of Jesus.

PS: I have nothing against their products (some of them are very good actually ;) ), just the name seems a bit awkward or uninspired.
