List of best card manufacturers

No this is not true. TONS of people have all these brands, you'll see these brands floating around the most because they've been around and are TRUSTED by people who build PC's.

 

ASUS, EVGA, PNY, Zotac, MSI, Gigabyte, Sapphire.

 

Besides not every card is made exactly like the one before. Manufacturing can sometimes have someone have a nightmare with a brand like Asus, while someone else will swear their loyalty to that brand because of the past 10 years of experience with them. 

 

Don't listen to things like this, come chat with people who actually do it.

I agree with what DVA said; there is no great way to order brand according to reliability or quality, because it varies from product to product. For example, EVGA cards are in the lowest tier of that chart, but I have had only great experiences with EVGA cards.

Asus in 'Shit tier? Lol, I always use Asus motherboards and I owned plenty of Asus GPUs , never had a single issue with anything.

Main system: Ryzen 7 7800X3D / Asus ROG Strix B650E / G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO 32GB 6000Mhz / Powercolor RX 7900 XTX Red Devil/ EVGA 750W GQ / NZXT H5 Flow

Reverse order much? Asus makes probably the best graphics cards on the market in terms of performance and reliability. MSI makes overpriced crap that can't cool itself (looking at you twin frozr and armor OC)

gigabyte is pretty middle of the road, but I think zotac got the short end of the stick.

I like how it says weeks of voting, but the voting was probably kept open for a long ass time because the voting pool was so small, so this is nothing to go by.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

No, the list is as fake as that ad that says "You won a jackpot!"

I would say Zotac EVGA and Asus are the best personally

Yes-  but there is also another piece to that- the customer service. All companies will have issues with bad cards for one reason or another, but how they handle the issues can vary a lot. I think if they made a poll, the question should be posed more like " Which tech companies do you like to work with the most?"

Matrox? Seriously? Maybe in 1997 and before... when you know... they made graphics cards for consumers (gaming).

Now they do specialties graphics card for commercial uses like video walls. That is it.

So it has no business in that image.

 

And they put MSI on the "Elite Tier", and EVGA and ASUS on the "Shit Tier"

And what is this "Elite Tier"? What is it? Call Of Duty?

 

Another problem is that those are vote based. That means that the most popular brands will automatically be the worst brand as more people uses it so ore people will have issues, DESPITE having, potentially, lower manufacture defects.

 

Me too, I'll buy those fake eBay graphics cared, slap "GoodBytes GPUs" as my brand name ('cause I am too cheap for anything), and include a 30sec warranty from the moment of purchase, and an a signed agreement that you are buying a falsely advertised graphics card that may or may not work, and you wave all possible lawsuits against me. And cost 1 million dollar US!. Look, 0 reports that it is broken or you have been had or anything! 0 Google results, beside this page! So, therefore I make, officially, the best graphics cards! 0 reported issues!

They had the unmitigated gall to call EVGA a shit tier brand?

 

Whoever made that is either trolling, or s person so idiotic or corrupt they need to be drawn and quartered.

 

Or, as I now see, they had 4chan do the list.

Currently using a reference EVGA GTX 660, runs cool, stays (for a reference card) quiet, and is easy to disassemble and repaste if I need to. I’d say most of these brands are high quality, I’m sure 99% of their product is great but that 1% will ruin someone’s experience.

Who needs fancy graphics and high resolutions when you can get a 60 FPS frame rate on iGPUs?
