Your favorite Brands when it comes to pc building

[TheDylinTech]

CPU: Neither *Uses Mostly Intel*

GPU: Neither

 

if i may

 

Motherboard: *Seems to lean towards Gigabyte*

What do you mean neither ? Do you like all of them or ...?

Cause I think Both Need eachover to exist or else i think we'll be hating our 1400$ i3's or 2000$ FX 8350s

[pyropanda1]

CPU: Intel (Grew up with intel and so I see no reason to change)

 

GPU: MSI (I like the colour schemes there cards have and the design also the come with msi afterburner)

[LordJameh]

CPU: Intel
GPU: Asus (Nvidia)

Dunno, just feel like more money spent = better performance, and both Intel and Nvidia are the more expensive and therefore (in my mind) the more premium option.

[Archangel1994]

CPU: Intel hands down, sorry AMD but unless you come with a great new architecture (which is long overdue) intel takes the cake

GPU: Nvidia = EVGA, Gigabyte, MSI           AMD = Sapphire, MSI

 

For GPU I prefer what I see as the best option at that moment.

Intel and Nvidia.... AMD Systems run hot... How ever dumb that sounds it matters to me. All my friends computers run very hot. You touch the case... its hot...

your friends need better air flow but yeah AMD do run a little on the hot side.

What do you reckon is the best at the moment in terms of the new 900 series ?

Performance: Gigabyte G1 or Zotac Amp Extreme (after voltage fix)

Balanced: MSI TF V

Silence: Strix

[Joshua Ondangan]

CPU: Intel

GPU: AMD (Sapphire), Nvidia (MSi/Zotac/Gigabyte)

[nick99n]

cpu:none (maybe intel a bit because i need to render fast  )
gpu :none for sure they are both really good 

i have used both in my systems 

edit:saphire masterace

[NeatSquidYT]

CPU: Intel

GPU: MSI. Budget, sexy and pretty good.

[That Random Cat]

CPU: whatever is in my price range with the most performance but doesn't get crazy hot.

GPU: ^ (I like EVGA, they have mostly hit that sweet spot and looks good doing it) 

[Thorium19]

CPU: whichever is best at the time and most suitable for the application, so at the moment intel.

GPU: same as above, but at the moment nVidia. GPU provider though, I'd have to say MSI or gigabyte for nVidia, and MSI or Sapphire for AMD

[ZacDaMan72]

CPU: Intel

GPU: The best price:performance GPU I can get. I do have a preference of Gigabyte cards.

[HippY]

CPU: £100 AMD  over £180 Intel

GPU : atm AMD as they can support 6 monitors...

 

 

As you see I am more fan of value than the name

[Octagoncow]

CPU: Intel

GPU: Nvidia (I find the way you update AMD drivers to be confusing)

 

Honestly though I will pick whatever is the best performance. I really hope that AMD can knock Intel off of their throne eventually; Intel has had it too good for too long.

[Aristocrates]

CPU: Intel

GPU: Asus (Nvidia)

[Đỗ Đức Huy]

CPU: Neither but I'm using Intel right now till AMD got their stuff together

GPU: Meh what ever works best for my use case in the ranks of performance, power draw, heat and overclocking abilitiy

[JR1911]

I don't really have any favorites, I choose the CPU an GPU based on what has the best price/performance at the time I'm building a new rig.

[DanTheMuffinMan]

CPU: intel (no contest there)

GPU: Nvidia (I've always hated Catalyst and the way AMD/ATI handle driver updates), specifically EVGA or Zotac (only company making stuff for my orange-themed build )

 

Though really you can't go wrong with most modern brands, and I tend to recommend AMD video cards to friends with a lower budget.

[Just The Tips]

CPU: Intel

GPU: Nvidia ones by Asus or MSI

[razor767]

As of right now:

 

CPU: Intel

GPU: Asus/Nvidia

[DigitalHermit]

Currently:

CPU: AMD... I'm impressed with my A8 5600k (which I seem to be unable to push to 4.2GHz on auto-voltage)

GPU: AMD/Sapphire... My 260X is whisper quiet... Even when loaded, the fans only spin up to around 40-ish percent but the temps don't exceed 60C (40C ambient)...

 

I'll be trying out the G3258 soon...

[flibberdipper]

CPU: Intel

GPU: Nvidia/ASUS

[jamese669]

I dont really have a favorite I just use what ever get the job done but if i had to pick one id guess id say evga for gpus and amd for cpu's
