What’s your opinion? Does google really “not work” anymore? Are there any better search engines? Why did the quality of search results go down? I honestly stumbled onto this question through this music video, what is ironic in it’s own way i feel…

    I hate where the internet is right now.

    Anyone trying to get information written by a human or decent benchmarks of CPUs is in for a real crap time.

    Just tested i5 12400 vs i3 12100f and was met with results in this order:

    1. Userbenchmark
    2. Userbenchmark
    3. CPU-Monkey
    4. 3 shitty YouTube videos of obviously fake gameplay benchmarks (that’s a whole other thing on YouTube)
    5. Technical city
    6. cpubenchmark.net - the first kind of decent result as it’s from the people at passmark.
    7. versus (dot com)
    8. gadget versus
    9. pc Praha (dot cz)
    10. cpu-compare
    11. cpu-panda

    The crap just goes on. SEO optimised lists of (at best) affiliate link laden spec sheets with no real information form an actual human.

      I had the same experience when choosing between the Intel or AMD versions of a prebuilt. Went with Intel due to having comparatably better specs at the price. Theading is better on AMD (as a rule?) but I can only have so much fun running multiple VMs.

      It sucks. I hope you got the best part.

      At this point I get most of my CPU/GPU info from GN, HWUB, and derbauer.

      It’s so annoying to look for it elsewhere.
