Post your thoughts on the best hardware manufacturers

I was thinking that since almost everyone here is into computers and case modding (I hope anyway) that it would be a good idea for everyone to post some of their favorite hardware manufacturers and maybe a little info on why.
ASUS - Every single person I know has an asus motherboard and we've never had to RMA anything or have any major problems at all with them. The worst thing about asus is that their website is constantly down or under maintenance.
Rosewill - My case as well as two of my friends' cases are from rosewill and they are all excellent cases, and cheap at that. I don't know too much about their RAM and monitors and those types of things however I'll say that if their quality carriers over between cases and other components that they're bound to be pretty decent.
MSI - not a super popular company or one that I have a ton of experience with however my CD/DVD Burner and Video card are both MSI manufactured and I've talked to several people online that say their MSI motherboards are great.

 

best hardware manufacture. Mmmh that's a bit toughy as there's so many parts and criteria.

 

I'm happy with abit.. have an abit board and gfx card. There are is a problem with their P4 boards which i have to deal with..

 

Internal Processing:
ASUS = Good Boards, REALLY BAD TO THE MAX RMA!!!!!
Gigabyte = Ok if ur never going to overclock! (They have support for noobs only). There boards are way to cheaply made, never make the mistake of going Gigabyte! i know from experience!!!!! they made my newest review hell!!!!!
DFI = Great i haven't heard anything bad about them, they seem to make really good board i hope to get my SLI-D soon
MSI = Ok i haven't really tested any of there boards.
Abit = Some bad things mentioned about there G Cards... :|, and i don't like how they need a Gamer to Substatdise there products
Tyan = Super Great for Server mobo's (Dual opterons to Quad)
Other Boards = Most good, some bad features on some, but over all i really never used any
AMD = The best, nothing beats them, no problems EVER!, never needed to RMA
Cases/ Modding.
Coolermaster = Professional Cases, some lack the requirement of having a Side Panel included (with a window), goo airflow, might need some air filters.
Noki = Simple but good, cheap but great
XSonic = Way to cheap, had a mous of theres broke after a few days. There cases are to THinly made and there Psu's have Short cables
Thermaltake = Reasonably good Cases, and Cooling. Really Really Bad Lighting (Cathodes are too dull). PSU's said to be good.
Vantec = Good modding supplies, no problem with service, and just all around good company , nothing wrong with them yet
Sunbeam = They make great gear, for the PC, including some of the brightest Cathodes around, great little things such as led's and Fans, Great Fan controllers and Lighting tools. Never afraid to have bad things told about there products. Always ready to help , Great cases, Great PPSU's (by the looks of things, i will let u know i am supposed to be getting a Nuuo ) and just a Great Company, i would so recommend them if u need any modding supplies.
Thermalright = Help fix gigabytes Faults!!!!!!!, Great coolers and no problems
Thats all i have for the time being, as u can see if have been in this business for awhile

 

I think this is pretty much impossible to answer as everyone has had problems with a part at one time or another. Just stay with name brand parts from well known companies and you'll be fine. Even good companies have a bad product from time to time. I've blown out Antec and Thermaltake PSUs befor, but I'd still recomend them to anyone.

 

Though this is gigabyte, and they couldn't even admit to having False specification retention modules!!! i hhave one and its not AMD standards!

 

The second part is only business but yes I would never buy one of their fatality boards.

 

Cool to see all your thoughts, maybe I should have labeled this 'favorite' hardware manufacturers.

 

You really need to Clearify what kind of hardware company Well I would say one comes to mind really fast is... CREATIVE LAB !!!! then ATI... Viewsonic .... Antec .... U.S. Robotic .... Sony .... Maxtor ... western Digital .... Seagate.... :shock: :shock:
the question is what kind of hardware company you asking? :shock: hehe

 

Listing here, is the Most recommend brand for Both Mobos, CPU and other stuff
AMD - Any of them own
DFI - Best layouts, and overclock ability (4.0v on RAM )
Seagate - Anything is good, never had faults.
GeCube for ATi - Good cards, i have an older model, its a great 9200se
I don't know nVidias cards best Production Company - Any company is good from my aspect
D-Link - Good Cards and Modems
Cisco - the best Switchs you can buy, going to get me a 24 port Gigabit for my servers
CoolerMaster - Ok, nothing bad.
Or
OCZ PSU's - Great by the looks of things
OCZ Ram - Great ram cheaper compared to others.
Corsair - Known as the best, but i haven't really thought the highest for them, they just put out the modules everyone likes
List done theres only a few choices, its really what you want for Price, the ATi vs nVidia decision is a hard one, but normally ether way is great , i wouldn't use the ATi chipset for a server though... :|

 

I've got a d-link and personally I think it blows... DFI is ok but they're a bitch to install.. I don't think they are 100% compatible with everything.
For ATI:
Sapphire
MSI
ATI
Abit
For Nvidia:
BFG
eVGA
MSI
Leadtek/XFX are becoming popular.

 

For myself, I really like DFI...... although they do take a bit of tweaking to get to run 100% out of the box. Abit on the other hand has been extremely good to me...........

 

I think its really hard to say who is the best manufacturer as you have to base it on alot of facts like looks, compatibility, performance, price, stability, quality, or accessories. I think its way to hard to say who is the best out there. From my experience so far I had only small troubles with ePoX's 8KHA mobo. It was a bit unstable art times. Everything else I have expoerienced is ok whether it be ABIT, ASUS, PNY, LitON, LG etc. I am just saying this based on the topic.

 

Lets say, some companies are bad, some are good, Shove the bads out and Look at what suits you for the prices
Remove companies like....
Gigabyte, who can't seem to make boards Which are good for overclocking, or cooling.
But only if the reason is what u want, another example.
DFI, ok, not good for a normal setup (no cooling no overclock)

 

Good point there unholy.

 

I think that DFI are the BEST mobo manufacturers for Overclockers!!!

 

AMD>*
All I can say..

 

mpcamer.... thats the Spirit!... the AMD Spirit clouds our ever smart thoughts, INTEL IS A BAD CHOICE CHILDREN :|

 

I also have had many good motherboards from MSI and Abit.. Really want to get a DFI.. Just don't have the money now..

 

i am saving for a SLI-D i hope they are good
