I could never really get into Steins;Gate, mostly because pretty much every time the MC opened his mouth, I wanted to punch him.
I'd say that the greatest sci-fi anime, mecha or not, is Cowboy Bebop. A pretty mundane answer, but it just is what it is.
My personal favorite is probably Kaiba. I'm also especially partial to Trigun (including Stampede), Ergo Proxy and Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou. And I feel like I shouldn't let this go without mentioning Now and Then, Here and There, Casshern Sins, Darker Than Black and Aria. And a couple of cheesy gems that aren't even close to the greatest that I just happen to like - Estab-Life and Photon: The Idiot Adventures.
