Anandtech.
I called this guy out on Twitter eventually challenging him to show me any article (in this PC area) of theirs and I will find mistakes. I offered my editorial services for one dollar. I've been, long ago, one of the editors of the largest computer monthly in Hungary and was on the editorial board. This wouldn't have been my first rodeo.
In this particular article there's not a lot of technical explanation so it's not easy to find a mistake but it's not so hard either: the GIGABYTE MZ31-AR0 is seriously outdated, they now sell the MZ32-AR0 which is now PCIe 4.0 and they missed from the list the Tomcat HX S8030 which is also PCIe 4.0. They did not, in fact, list any PCIe 4.0 boards. It's just sloppy.

This wouldn't have been my first rodeo. Do you honestly think anyone would hire you with an approach like that? You'd have to pay people to put up with that attitude.
- chx 6y agoSigh. People missed the word "eventually". The discussion was more pleasant. I have pointed out some mistake in an article politely and offered to help. He was quite adamant they need no help and was, in fact, quite arrogant and that's when I told him that a) everyone knows Anandtech is sloppy, actually linking a HN comment form a few months back b) I challenged him to show me anything that I can't find a mistake in.
