Hello PH,
This is a tool we made for people that care more about playing games than studying hardware. We wanted a simplified way to discuss gaming performance, where you can represent the major parts of the system visually rather than in detailed explainers better suited to engineers. Of course, some people love those explainers (I do) but many of my friends stick to consoles so they can "just play". We want to make PC gaming more accessible to them.
Pro-tips:
- Our home page features performance for the latest hardware releases at stock performance.
- Finding bottlenecks is easy with our health bars. In an RPG, the larger bar is your max health, and the interior bar is your current health. Here, the CPU sets the max framerate, and the GPU sets the actual frames you'll see.
- Each part is given a color that represents its performance level (like Diablo or World of Warcraft loot). Match the colors, get a system of that performance level.
Thanks for checking us out and we'd welcome any feedback.
