I love Ultra because they're always there for me. Like the time my dog died, and when I was having troubles at home. They've were very supportive when I had to "get off the sauce", were by my side the time I punched that cop, and held my hand when I thought I had TB. They wash my car, comb my hair, and clean my basement.... and thats why I love Ultra.

Brutality will become famous soon enough

Hmm...Tomorrow I'll get my plutionium shipment and then I can start up my personal nuclear powerplant in my basement. Though....I'd need something to use up all that energy. I think that PSU would be nice

I love Ultra because it reminds me of Ultra Magnus, which reminds me of Transformers, which is my favorite movie so far this year.

Wink Why I love Ultra

I love Ultra because their products never caused any problems for me, and hopefully never will. I may consider ultra in alternative to these fine exploding Products:
1 x Antec SmartPower 2.0 500W (blew on me after making a horrible high pitched whine)
1 x Antec TX1050B Server Case (included the 1 Antec SmartPower 2.0 500W, Reset button stuck, HD LED broken)
1 x USB Card (5 Port), (for it had a price drop 8 days after I bought it)
2 x AMD cooler (one had a broken latch, the other tore off my CPU when I attempted to remove it)
2 x SD cards (stupid thing corrupted on me)
too many to count USB drives (need more space)
1 x MP3 player (my ipod battery is almost gone)
2+ x HDD enclosures (I ran out of places to put my extra HD's)
Various IDE and SATA cables (too short, frayed, broken connectors, you name it)

And if they ever made them
1 x ATI/Dell Radeon 9700 TX (side of monitor artifacts, all 5 of them sent as replacements)
1 x ATI Radeon 9700 AIW Pro (just got too slow for me)
1 x ATI/AMD Radeon X800 AIW XT (Need PCIe now)
1 x 17" Dell CRT (edge shakes)
1 x Z5500 Speaker set (had a 6 month long RMA to fix popping incident)
1 x Audigy 2 (Creative trying to charge to Alchemy [EAX driver for vista])
1 x ASrock 939dual SATA2 motherboard (cries in a corner over false boot errors , AGP, and Vista driver problems [though I blame Nvidia for the later])
... need I go on

Too many computer problems... I just want good quality parts, please?

Their products look so nice! Look at the shine of their psu or at the style of their hub. That's bound to please even the most demanding consumers.

I love Ultra because their products have a lifetime warranty. When I reach the ripe old age of 100 years I can rest assured that the Ultra Power supply in my antique gaming rig will still be under warranty.
I also love them because they give out free stuff

Ultra power supplies are a gift from god, I doubt anyone would ever need to buy another power supply ever again with that badboy.

I like Ultra because all the hardware I buy and enjoy has Ultra in it's name,for example my video card:a 6800 Ultra.Ultra means performance and maximum reliability over time.
If you want to be in the top all the time,you must buy only Ultra products.If we take into consideration that Ultra is the brand name of this firm,we can take the conclusion that it makes only Ultra quality products.

...that just sounded Ultra-weird.

Ultra is an eye Catcher...

Well I recently decided to build my own system having always bought Dells and HPs I thought it was time to make my own. After searching Newegg and TigerDirect for many hours I stumbled upon the Ultra Black Aluminus case which really caught my eye. I really liked the layout of the case. Also the cool thing is Ultra makes Modular Power Supplies which i find hard to find. So thats double brownie points for Ultra... and now the free stuff.. cant beat that.

Ultra makes quality stuff

Ok so to put it frankly, I'm sick of not getting what I pay for. Certain manufacturers charge you an arm and a leg for shoddy products. Not the case with Ultra. I have never had an issue with any hardware they make and I'm not really sure why I went hunting around for a better deal. This stuff is top notch, Ultra is tried and true hardware.
