    I can only await the next bit tech's weeks late copy paste review of **** you can't buy (seriously these things read like the datasheet and other than this one get 2 comments of "cool" or "meh" makes you wonder whats driving these things outside of the corsair reviews)

    What do you expect from hardware reviews?
    There are only so many ways a reviewer can write that product A is 3.6% percent better than product B in scenario Y.

    If you want to see something that was written in a more creative way then look at the game reviews where objective measurements aren't possible and the reviewer has to find some way to communicate around that problem.

    I'll pass this on to the ill member of staff we're trying to fill in for. How many different ways do you think we can say one card is quicker than the other but by the way nothing is in stock? Or get a sample for review when none are in stock.

    If everyone's reviewing the exact same item. which is provided by the manufacturer so they will bin a cpu/gpu to a set spec. of course the results will be the same, its the same product.

    As for the lateness, some places are even more late Covid is a weird time for everyone delays everywhere so what do you expect?

    While everyone is entitled to their opinion, instead of criticising, offer something constructive. I get that some reviews might look like copy and pastes, but how many ways can you write that component is good / bad? I imagine there will be certain boxes reviewers must tick which are set out by manufacturers, and if they don't tick them, they don't get to review later products.

    While I don't use this forum as much as I used to, I can appreciate the effort that people like @MLyons are putting in, in very difficult and uncertain times.

    This effort also allows us a platform to express our views, even if they are that of a hater.

    I was being facetious. I thought that was obvious? :s
