I’ve had this site in my bookmarks since forever, sad to see it go.

This makes me sad. They were a great alternative to TomsHardware. Definitely my go-to over them. Truly a shame.

Crazy, I've been out of tech for a while but AnandTech was the website that got me into PC building as a kid. Sad to see them go

Anandtech, hardocp, and tomshardware were my go-to sites for PC hardware info

Understandably, there's not that much money in google web ads
