i dunno. i just worked on one of their ‘gaming’ rigs. weird chinese-branded everything. 3 months old, won’t stay running. crashes constantly. re-installs don’t help. it’s trash. the vendor has all but disappeared. still has their storefront but they don’t answer, and amazon won’t help either.
even though i swapped out the atrocious no-name motherboard so now it’s at least usable, i expect to see it again with a failed psu, gpu, or ram.
they might make it on availability or price, but longevity or reliability they have a lot of work to do.
There are reliable and crap Chinese brands. This is not really relevant in this conversation. (plus manufacturing defects can go unnoticed with any brand) It’s merely a data point of one.

CXMT and YMTC should be a bit more serious operations than whoever made your no-name parts.
Sounds pretty similar to my experience with Samsung and Gigabyte
So you’re saying they just need to scoot back their planned obsolescence a bit to align with western stuff.
None of that matters. If they make stable ram I don’t care about their “gaming rigs”
