>>54998961
GTX 260
GTX 570 (both died on driver releases)
Mechanical lit Keyboards, the fucking LED's fail on me way too soon.
asrock motherboards, this shit has atleast 1 flaw on arrival no matter the price class for me
>>54999014
Yes, actually that happened to me too, after a driver's release the fans began to stop everytime they reached 100% load
>>54998961
>GTX 480
>GTX 580
Why would you ever buy anything based on Fermi?
>Intel's Ivy bridge
No one except shills have told people to buy anything newer than Sandy Bridge/Piledriver
>Macbook air
>Macbook Pro (i did not hate it but it throttled a lot both on light CAD or even just while browsing twitter)
>Windows Vista
>Western Digital HDD
>Asus's motherboards
>iPhones
>Early Amoled
>New Thinkpads
>9800 gt
Literally doing exactly what /g/ tells you not to do, only a few shills have shilled all of those
>>54998961
Honestly the only thing I can think of are Asus motherboards. Usually I take the consensus of what /g/ says and do the opposite.
It's been working great so far.
>>54998961
But four of those are NVidia cards. Worse still, one is the generation immediately after a pretty big blunder and it's the third NVidia card you regretted. I'm normally not one to suggest brand loyalty or fanboyism but at what point do you say "I think I'll leave NVidia alone for now"
As for macbooks, arch, vista and corsair fans, /g/ has always told everyone to steer clear of those. You're not pinning that on us, despite the fact that I personally believe that the MacBook pro has its place though would never suggest it to another anon.

Actually most of the memes i fell for were from shills probably and from biased sites like wccftech or HardOCP or anandtech.
>Early Amoled
Don't let /g/ fool you, all phone AMOLED screens including today still have burn in problems.
>>54999713
As the owner of a Lumia 930 and a galaxy s6, both from their respective launch days, I can partially confirm this. There is no burn in on the 930 and I can kinda sorta see the notification bar on the s6 if I run the burn tester app but only with a totally blue screen on full brightness. I'd hardly call it an issue.
>>54999072
Asus motherboards and Western HDDs were /g/'s top recommendations like 7 years ago. Things change.
>>54998961
what's the meme with asus mobos?
>>54999811
Go google and lookup any AMOLED phone with the key words "burn in". Burn in gets worse over time even on the lowest brightness and isn't always fixable without replacing the screen. Also, there might be someone in this thread who sells phones in stores who can confirm that all their AMOLED display phones have burn in.
>delta fans
Just kidding. These things are fucking great.
>>54999928
Busted Caps
