Pretty simple. I need a new screwdriver set, and I want something with bits made with a strong alloy. After taking 6 computers apart, most of my bits are twisted.

IMO, if you are twisting or bending screwdrivers then you are doing something wrong.
Maybe you should use a nut driver for some fastners. OR use discrete screwdrivers rather than a handle and bits.

If you mean towers and desktops, LTT screwdriver.
If you mean laptops, mini-PCs, and the like, iFixit Mako kit or LTT precision driver kit.

The precision kits have bits for Phillips #2 (desktop sized screws), but the handle is small so low torque.

you can also take a metal file and sharpen the tips.
 
Has anyone used Fanttik? Looks like their bits are made with S2 steel, and they have quite a few options at pretty good prices considering it's S2 steel.
 
Another recommendation for iFixit
kits. I've had mine a few years and use it for a variety of tasks. It's well designed and pretty solidly built in my opinion.
