Sorry about the multiple threads. I meant to make the Poll with multiple choices, which I did when I remade the post/poll.

Use this thread to vote.
 
HardOCP, Anand and Bit-Tech. Toms has gone down the drain last couple of years.
 
I noticed Toms has gotten a bit dumber the last couple years. More and more articles are ridden with spelling and grammar mistakes, and sometimes just plain old inaccuracies. I'm not really a grammar nazi but if you're a professional publication frequent editing mistakes and factual errors really hurt your reputation. When I was building my own PC a few years ago they were top notch and the forums were a great resource.

These are mostly the blog/news articles though. I'll admit to not having read much of their tech reviews lately as I haven't been in the market for anything. Have their tech reviews lately been of the same (poor) quality as everything else?

With that said I'd have to go with anandtech.
 
They just seem too casual. They've become lax. I dont know if they review PSU's anymore, but Id trust a HardOCP or Bit-Tech review for PSU's over Toms.

The spelling mistakes and inaccuracies are also horrid for their reputation. Like yous aid, a professional, or even semi-professional publication, should be able to at least edit the spelling mistakes. Inaccurate info is sort of up to the writer, but spelling should be ironed out by the time it hits final draft.

Their website redesign also annoyed me. Its cluttered, horrible to navigate. Everything is all on one page, and its just information overload.
