The problem I see with this and the reason I do not watch everything that GN makes is for me "Tech Jesus" has become intoxicated by the fumes of his own conceit. He is not alone as there are a few other channels that exhibit this type of behaviour.

That's what I mean by arrogance, narcissism

Unfortunately I feel like print is slowly dying especially with so many people using ad blockers etc. The other issues is some of my favorite print sites either dying or becoming a joke over the last decade.
I really really liked Tom's Hardware back in the early to mid 2000s even prior to building my first custom pc and now they are a shell of their former self imo.

Other than TPU I really only like anandtech these days although some of the headline stories here make me roll my eyes but you get that with every site unfortunately trying to get clicks.

They have been moving to primarily video reviews for a while which sucks as you can study the information far easier on print without watching Steve play with his hair for 20 minutes.

Sorry he shits on Radeons and AMDs handling of Radeons a little too often.

I honestly find him to be a Ryzen fan boy at times but I don't watch his GPU reviews, it's too easy to find GPU reviews in print on the web.
