Userbenchmark's GPU reviews are all complete garbage (lemmy.nz)

I was looking through Userbenchmarks at a few different GPU's and I noticed that every single review for all GPU's included a negative review about AMD GPU's falsifying data, paying people to shill and experienced gamers knowing that AMD is a bad choice. I looked a little further and saw that all these reviews came from one account and after digging more it seems that this is userbenchmarks account considering they've made videos expressing the same sentiment on their youtube channel.

Its insane to me how one of the highest trafficked hardware comparison websites is blatantly this biased and still has the balls to accuse AMD of paid sponsorship. What are some better hardware comparison sites to use?

https://openbenchmarking.org/ for performance on Linux but it's nowhere near as usable.

You gotta commend UB for their data presentation, it just sucks that the data is completely worthless.

It's been anti-AMD for years

At this point I am even wondering if it isn’t just 1 big troll that runs that site. I mean, they can’t be serious.
