    Quality and price are the main contributors to a purchase. At least for me anyway.

    I've had two RMA's with EVGA over the years and they were always fair and reasonable. I prefer them for their GPU's because of their warranties .

    As stated above, the overall quality/build, performance, support, warranty, and lastly, a fair price for the products.  RMAs and step ups are relatively painless.  I've purchased MBs, PSUs, GPUs, and smaller items over the last 12 years.  
     
    I switched to EVGA, on the recommendation of someone I trusted, after receiving two garbage, i.e., DOA, MBs within a week from another "quality" brand.  I then spent two weeks with a lot of emails and telephone calls to get them returned. 
     
    I haven't switched from EVGA since and as a consumer, I am happy with EVGA's products including their T-shirts.

    I normally look around at which manufacturers tend to have the best card performance. EVGA and MSI are usually pretty up there. Zotac seems good, but sometimes not. I had a PNY card for a while but I don't hear people talk about them much. Founder's edition is supposed to be good too.

    It was the only one available. I bought a EVGA 2080 Ti for 600 euros but a day later they cancelled my order. I'm really sad now ;(

    US based.  #1 customer service, #1 quality.  #1 forum community.  I don't buy anything else.

    The main reason is the warranty coverage,and then the high cost performance

    I have used Step Up at least three times...easy and quick.  I have also RMA'd a few items...Customer service was great...turnaround was quick and always got resolved.  EVGA is a class company

    15 years ago was because it was a great value combo deal for me to try.......
     
    Now - it's because you get great value & great warranty/Customer Service ...from a U.S. based facility.

    1. United States based company
    2. Positive discussions surrounding EVGA products
    3. Focusing solely on NVIDIA products, well for the GPUs that is

    For me it's the fact they remained at MSRP despite everyone else raising prices, plus great performance and a reliable way to get 30 series cards in the UK
    Admittedly only bought GPUs from them but their keyboards look nice too
