Best review sites/sources of info

[Mithrander]

Hearing the heavy criticism of Tom's Hardware Guide and the recent quality of articles here at Anandtech, are there any recommended websites for good solid reviews on just about anything?

This forum's great too - only problem is that it's easy for the occasional inquiries to get lost in the flood of new topics.

Any websites, urls, tech sites that you guys turn to for dependable reviews would be great.

well, the "news" section of anandtech is updated every day with all sorts of links to reviews

also, virtual-hideout.net is pretty good for a lot of stuff

but my favorite source is google: type in "model number" & "reviews" and you'll usually find lots of stuff.

For motherboards, I like the brand-specific (Abit, Shuttle, Epox, etc.) motherboard forums at amdmb.com.

What's great about those forums is that it's pretty easy to spot common user-problems, since most posts are about after-purchase problems experienced by users, such as memory-compatability, BIOS problems, space for heatsinks, etc.

A couple of other good review sites are http://www.harddiskinfo.com/ and http://www.cdrlabs.com/

Hope this helps.
