PC and console hardware, judged by the frame rate a component actually delivers for the money. Components and Peripherals hold the parts, Builds covers whole machines, Benchmarks carries the measured numbers as published, and Handhelds & consoles picks up the fixed platforms.
No. Every number in Benchmarks comes from a named reviewer, laboratory or manufacturer and is credited and linked, with the test settings named where the source gave them. Nothing is measured on this site.
No. The site reports what has been announced and what others have measured, and it publishes no rankings, best-of lists or affiliate links. Which part suits your machine and budget is your call.
From named hardware publications, vendor announcements and driver notes, summarised with the source credited and a link back. Claims about performance stay attributed to whoever tested them.
There is no individual byline. Pieces are written with automated assistance from the source material, crediting the source publication instead, as set out on Sources and methods.
Through the day as reporting appears, so launch weeks and driver releases produce clusters and quiet weeks stay quiet. There is no fixed publishing hour and no weekly edition.
