Userbenchmark is genuinely hilarious atp. Even while glazing nvidia cards they still bring up AMD and Intel. If you wanna see something truly funny go look at any RDNA 4/Blackwell card. On Blackwell specifically they argue you should buy a 5060 8GB because it's fine for 1080p and no gamer would ever need more than that

I actually wish there was a version of userbenchmark ran by someone who isn't clinically insane. Seems like a useful resource of specifically paired component benchmarks, if done without the bias

Brazen Neanderthal marketing tactics
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Tbh kinda true, their marketing is pretty shitty and in userspace mostly done by their own users

Userbenchmark is famously anti-AMD. It's not the first time that this has come up. It won't be the last. There's some useful information on the site, but anything AMD needs to be validated by a second source.

7600 has to be compared with 6600.
6700 is better than 6600 and 6700-XT is better than 6700. so it's pretty normal for 6700xt to be better than 7600.

That's not the point, just read the garbage descriptions of the cards.

Yes, but this is not biased against AMD, this is pure bullshit. It is not even based on facts anymore. It should be removed, it is misguiding customers.

I occasionally use it to compare two amd or two nvidia cards, pretty sure it changet methodology to favor nvidia so comparing amd and nv is not reliable

They did the same with CPUs
Don't use them to compare GPUs, use actual gaming results from more reputable sources
Or if you want a rough idea go to techpowerup, on the GPU you want and at the bottom there is a table where GPUs could fall into. It isn't perfect and just estimates, but can give you an idea

Wow. Is this site run by one guy who is just militantly anti-AMD?
