Site Content Updates!

It’s been far too long since we’ve had “real” content posted on our site, so I thought our readers deserved to know what’s going on, and also when things are going to ramp back up. The good news, is that the answer to the latter thought is “soon!”, so don’t worry. Allow me to apologize to everyone for failing to deliver all of the content you’ve come to expect on our site over the course of the last four years.

As mentioned in the past, I’ve been working hard on wrapping up methodologies for absolutely every product-type we’ve had, and as I’ve been working on those, I haven’t been able to dedicate hard time to other content. If I do, then it means the methodology stuff continues to get pushed behind. It’s a vicious circle of sorts. To make the timing worse, our other staffers have been dealing with life’s little pleasures (aka: unforeseen occurrences and other demands), which of course doesn’t help our situation.

Things are slowly coming back together, however, and our GPU re-benchmarking is just about done. I’m wrapping up a couple of ATI cards as we speak, and once those are done, I’m going to quickly re-benchmark each ATI card once again to, what I like to call “double-verify”, our results. A review featuring our new methodology will be posted next Monday, and it will feature Gigabyte’s Radeon HD 4770.

Speaking of methodologies, don’t miss an article posted just the other day which takes an in-depth look at how we handle our testing here at Techgage. So far, we only have information on how we install Windows, and also benchmark our graphics cards, but in the future, it will feature methodologies for everything we touch, from processors to motherboards to storage and so forth.

Once again, apologies for having such a slow content cycle recently. When I decided to take on the monumental task of revamping all of our methodologies at once, I sure didn’t expect everything else to work against me. Lesson learned… if something can go wrong, chances are it will! The good news is that with our revamped methodologies, our benchmarking results will be even more accurate than ever, along with our resulting analysis. I have never been more confident in how we handle our testing here, and I can’t wait to see all of that reflected in our content!
