      It kinda depends on the hardware. For power supplies, Corsair and Cooler Master are good picks, provided you’re not going for the lowest end. Graphics card would probably be Zotac, XFX, maybe Inno3D.

      If we’re talking whole devices (like a handheld gaming device) your options become very limited

      The model should be Apple: yes, they’re expensive, but they’re also no-questions-asked. As long as your AppleCare is still valid:

      • Laptop stopped working? Just send it in for repair or come into the store, you get a new one.
      • Apple pencil won’t charge? We’ll send you a new one, send the us the old one back in a prepaid shipping container.
      • Screen cracked on your iPhone? Here’s the schedule of repair costs, we’ll send you a new one.
      • Dog chewed your airpod? Nominal fee for replacement and we’ll send you a new one first.

      The problem is that Apple has the up-front margin to support this kind of thing. Asus et al don’t.
