Go watch tech channels on YT

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.

... The videos have comparison charts, have you actually never watched one

And Ars is also a very good source
