Hardware Reviews

[Megatron]

Does anyone know of a site that's devoted to hardware reviews? Many of the sites I've visited only tell the pros of the product. I need some of the cons as well.

Thanks.

I write hardware reviews at AMDMB.com, though be warned, due to the nature of the site I am just a little biased

Tom's Hardware does lots.

Thanks Jungle-Man.

Sastraxi: Can I have the link to the site you mentioned?

I like HardOCP, they generally have unbiased hardware reviews.

Toms Hardware is full of Intel *****s and NV-Idiots, Anandtech is usually hung up on NVIDIA products, but the folks at [H] seem to give everything a fair shot and the review it deserves.

Over at AMDMB which is where I write stuff, we're quite obviously biased towards AMD, but aside from AMD vs Intel we usually keep an even keel on products and fairly review everything. If there's an exceptionally bad product, it usually isn't reviewed...

You're definately bias towards AMD.



Even though Intel has the upper hand currently.

It doesn't matter, you can't have no bias, unless if it was strictly numbers. And I didn't say Tom's was good

I'm not doubting the fact that Intel has the fastest chip currently, but I am doubting the fact that AMD doesn't offer an incredible bang for the buck, and we all know how well those XP2400s overclock $188 buys you a lot of performance. Or even better, how about those AGOIA 1600+ chips. Those can hit 1.8Ghz easily with aircooling.

Or how about those who bump up the FSB to 200 or so...the lead on Intel chips is really cut down or even eliminated when you have a chip running 200Mhz FSB unlocked an XP2200+ might be slower than a P4 2.53, but how about an XP2200 at 9x200, then we will see which chip wins.Still at stock 1800Mhz but the FSB is bumped up.

And once the Clawhammer comes out, THEN we will see who is ahead
