Which Graphics Manufacturer DON'T you want

[smogsy]

i'm curious. we all say the manufacturer/card we want to buy. but i'm interested in your thoughts on the exact opposite. which card/manufacturer do you avoid?

So Forget everything about
: Price
: Core/clock Memory Clock Speed

This is solely about Manufacturer/Warranty/Cooler
Their are closed boxes in front of you with Every manufacturer which manufacturer/card do you not want to get & why?

Examples:

Nvidia:
KFA2 - Clown card need i say more?


AMD:
XFX - Very bad past experience of them not honoring their warranty, OCUK did & removed them from Their Shop (many years ago, 10+ maybe?)

^ Gigabyte wise first RMA was good, second was terrible sent me the same card back, But 3rd time they did fix it by giving me full money back so overall pretty decent!

very interesting to see people Call out Asus many times in this thread. Thought everyone was ROG fans

would agree though, ASUS seems to be pay more for our Marketing team added on RGB + ROG logo. we hip now down with the kids
