    I would stay away from Gigabyte cards that are advertised as being overclocked absurdly high out of box compared to competition as the customer reviews are 90 percent of the time plagued with complaints of driver crashes and instability due to them clocking them too high.

    haha totally!!! Razer is such a waste of money.

    I pity everyone with Razer mouse,
    because they either have girly hand or the mouse will eventually explode in their hand

    never again - AMD graphics unless their FreeSync is similarly good and available as G-Sync. This tech is a must for my next gaming setup.

    Dunno really, I have good and bad experiences with most companies Ive bought from

    ASUS I swore blind never to buy from again after my droid tablet was left as a brick, but I have ASUS LCDs that are great

    Corsair I hate with a passion for my H100i vs Corsair Link Software that never works, my Corsair mouse that died after 8 months and my Corsair PSU that popped after about 4 months, but my replacement Corsair PSU is still going strong and some DDR2 RAM that I bought about 5 years ago is still going strong too along with my keyboard

    If I avoided every company that did me wrong, Id have to start manufacturing stuff myself

    PowerColour. Their reference design for the 6850 was just really really bad. The costum part where the fan was on was so loose you could actually loosen the screws by hand. Also heat issues, bad copper heatsink.

    My friend who has a powercolour r9 290 says that thing makes more noise than a helicopter, and I agree. You can barely hear yourself talk when that thing is going at 80% speed.
