Here's some I think you should definitely add, but you might want to check around. I've definitely gotten the idea that most like these companies, though some (like Lian-Li) are considered over priced. Nevertheless I think they should be on the list!

Power Supplies:
PC Power & Cooling (PCP&C)
Fortron

Video Cards:
eVGA

Cases: (it definitely matters!)
Lian-Li

Periphirals:
Razer (maybe considered nerdy but they make awesome gaming mice, and lots of gamers come here asking about what to get so I thought it was worth mentioning)
Steelpad/Icemat (high end mouse pads, if there is such a thing; caution, heavily overpriced)

also chaintech for MB's and the av710 is a great sound card.

Ahanix, Silverstone, and Uneed for HTPC cases.

Also Case and cpu HSF's and fans:
Thermaltake, papst, silenx (also them for quiet PSU's), zalman, nexus, scythe....its a start..

just a few others.

ALSO: klipsch for speakers. Gyration for mice/keyboards (im just adding an HTPC viewpoint for this).

PSU. Seasonic
Cases Antec.
