Google doesn't work anymore ? (www.youtube.com)

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.

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.

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.
