Go watch tech channels on YT, there are many great channels. Gamer's Nexus also has a website (completely ad free too) that has all of their benchmark results.

Also, Phoronix although it is Unix centric

    Having to sift through who knows how many videos to get information that could be a graphic with numbers? Yeah, no, thanks.

    I find this site useful, it's part of Passmark - https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php

    YouTube has a search function you know

    Just search GN channel for the part you want to buy

    It's much better than a narrow benchmark like PassMark and they show actual real world performance

    If I want to compare part X with 3 others, I'll have to "watch" 4 videos. Give me the benchmark of each, plus the high/avg/low fps for a number of games and their settings, something Ars Technica does, and it'll take me less time to compare than it'll take to find the videos I "need" to watch.
