    Anand la shimpi, the founder, left almost a decade ago, and that seems to have weakened it a good bit, then we got YouTube channels like GN and we just blast them into out feeds quickly because we don’t care about the specific numbers as much as a broad brush.

    I remember 20 years ago when performance really, really mattered, but now things are so fast it’s a difference you can’t always easily see unless you’re trying to run over 4k and the game is jokingly badly optimized.

      At this point, you could almost just assume next gen CPU is 10% faster than the one that was 10% faster last year.

      GPUs are a little more wild, but that’s more a side effect of all 3 having wild swings due to hardware changes and driver updates but it’s still just a single graph you have to update every few months. Not really enough to run a business on.
