I hate being reminded that UserBenchmark exists.
Same! This stuff is useful for people that don't know how that site operates. But if you know then it just ruins to be reminded they exist lol
Same here, but new folks joining this cult need to see this. Back when I was looking to build my very first Pc, User Benchmark was my first Google result so I went there and read all this nonsense very confused. A friend told me to ignore it and thankfully I did
@@AndreyStevn what do you use to compare parts that is better than user benchmark?
@@Zamoxi I just go to every YT channel and check benchmarks. I own a 5800X and a 7900XTX so I do a test in my PC to get a reference and see if the result they get is similar or equal, based on That I can tell if it's legit or not
Jayze2cents, GamersNexas, Hardware Unboxed 👍👍@@Zamoxi
UserBenchmark lives on a constant April Fools status... Shame
lol userbenchmark looks like its run by conspiracy theorists nutjobs who think jensen, musk and trump are gods among men. Just pathetic AF human beings
I'll always be glad that passmark was the top result when I didn't know much about pc hardware and I was looking for benchmarks. By the time i came across userbenchmark I already knew I was in presence of BS.
Hahaha I didn't know about userbenchmark until after I built my PC, ran their tests got told my computer was faster than 87% of benchmarks on the site and then died laughing reading the "review" excerpts about my AMD hardware.
We've been joking about for years, but we can't have a system comparison thread up anymore using their site, it's lost credibility.
unfortunately it was a force the in monopolization of nvidia. Anyone doing a google search comparing AMD vs nvidia gpus got redirected to userbench as ultimate proof
The way this person wrote about the 7800X3D, one might think the CPU broke into his house and ate his cat. That was PERSONAL😂
Lisa Su personally came over and kicked their dog in the front yard.
When Intel were first to market with AVX they put 50% of their score weight on AVX performance. When AMD kicked Intel's butt in AVX performance they immediately removed AVX from their test suite "because only extremely rare professional packages use AVX so it's of no importance to consumers"... Except of cause that most modern game engines use AVX in some capacity because it's really useful for processing geometry data.
TL;DR: AMD existing is personal to the dorks at userbenchmarks.
Their review for the 5800x3d is nearly word-for-word identical, they just changed 5 to 7 😂
You mean "One of his cats," I'm sure. 😂
Deeply personal
It’s so sad that the owner of this site is a grown man fanboying for bloody tech corporations
more like just hating on amd
@@Fr33mx or there in money involved, or both, or all three
@marsovac nah, most likely just fanboyism. Check our wcctech comments and you'll see people calling each company childish names like "Shintel", "Ngreedia" or calling people "AMDumbs". Each company has fanboys (though AMD has arguably the most of all; probably because of the goodwill they've earned in prior years).
Not a 'grown man' but an overgrown child.

UserBenchmark's rants about some components, almost always AMD, killed their credibility with me LONG ago.
UserBenchmark is the definition of unvoluntary satire.
Seriously as someone whos always looking for the best price to performance (which brings me to amd) i always used to recommended this site to friends until i read one of the "conclusions" once never used the site again
now im recommending everyone to stop using it or to never start using it
UBM is a horrible misguided informercial for intel/nvidia. Amazing what buying a company can do. UBM rants about everysingle thing amd makes, even when 98% of the world raves about the 5800x3d and 7800x3d, UBM and his weirdo freak bias says they are trash lol
They're literally giving bs justifications and reasons on their website to why EVERYONE in the PC gaming world is against them*, like "the whole world is stupid but not us we are definitely not biased against AMD 😊"
A wise man once said, "If you look at the world and think everyone but you is crazy, it's not everyone else. It's you."
They are so deep in their own ass that I bet they would find a reason why Celeron 450MHz is better than 7800X3D.
Intel is still better than amd... People are indeed paid to promote amd
@@FO0TMinecraftPVP🤣🤣🤣
@@FO0TMinecraftPVP People buy CPUs for a wide range of use cases. Saying one maker is "better" than another is far too sweeping a generalization to be true.
Those lines you opened with are... legitimately insane and genuinely very harmful to the PC gaming space. This website needs to be shut down or reformed. They are completely delusional.
As much as I find their misinformation and clear crazy bias objectionable, the cure for false speech is truth. Censorship is horrid. Now If you said more warnings need to be made to tell folk about how messed up they are, that I agree with.
They've been doing this (aka malding) since ryzen came out, probably even before that, although that's when i took notice.

Money, you can promote your website on google with money. It's not like Intel and nVidia don't do that, heck they have been to court for such practise and get slapped a relatively small fine that's peanuts to these companies. E.g Intel for their anti competition practices got fined $1.3 billion they protested it several times and ended up paying only $300 million. With this sort of crap and the damage they caused $300 million is nothing! So much so, that Intel still do it today, because why not?
People still trust Google?
lol I built a PC for the first time this year and even I as a total novice researching parts thought that site was a bit fishy based on its numbers. Watching Daniel, Hardware Unboxed, and PC Builder got my build looking right tho.
Shoot you done em right at the time when I built mines I was watching a lot of jaytwocents scattervult and Linus all these pc guys are gems to the community
How do they show up so high on google search results? Their bias is borderline satire.
Cause people click on it, the more clicks it gets the higher it shows on search results, the problem is 90%+ of those clicks are from people normies or new builders that don't know the site is 100% misinformation.
They pay to be on top. It's no secret.
Nearly all top spots are paid. No difference than brands paying for the ideal shelf in grocery stores
@@VizyouallI knew they was I'm sure someone reported this but can't find it. Also they ask for a monthly fee

this site needs to be reported and deleted.
Reported to who? Afaik they are an independent site and there are truth police. Yes they're full of it and knowingly lying or delusional or a very long running joke. Delete sounds like censorship and cancel culture.

@@arch1107😂
The faces you make while reading the blog at the start is hilarious and almost spill my coffee.
Userbenchmark is a joke
I was that person. I used user benchmark when I first started planning out my build. It was initially a intel 12th gen i5 with a 3070ti.
Then I started watching reviews on RUclips,especially from the YT channel "Ancient Gameplays" who first clued me into user benchmark bullshit. Then I started watching gamers nexus and hardware unboxed.
Ended up finally with a all AMD build 1 yr later with a r5 7600x and a rx6800xt.
You ended up with all the bang for the buck while staying below "an actual furnace" in power consumption.
It doesn’t matter you like intel or amd, what matters is we can’t lie ourselves if other brands has better performance since it only brings goods to market, industry, and us customers.
the radeon 6800s are extremely good value and they run everything without breaking a sweat. Good choice
@@Open6a-fx4qf Yeah exactly, I don't have any brand loyalty towards any of the mega tech companies, at the end of the day they're all there to screw you up. What matters is the price and the performance (for things important to you). Thats it.
@@andersjjensen Haha yeah, tell me about it.
Fr tho I had intel 12th gen in my PC list for a long time because the whole system was cheaper than ryzen 7000. The switch to AM5 was only a few weeks before purchase because I decided I rather have a system that can use the X3D chips so I can upgrade in the future.
I wonder why they don't just say 14700 > 7800 therefore the 14700k is better because maths
🤣
the new core ultra stuff has smaller number 🫡
Yes, Product name number benchmark is being added in the next update to User benchmark site.
Steve would agree on that!
14700 is clearly 88% better by that metric. We need to contact someone from the website to include this metric as well.
It's a bummer too, as it would be genuinely useful to have a non biased version of a site like User Benchmark.
Passmark, it's a lot less intuitive and uglier but at least their data seems to be unbiased.
Versus and CPUbenchmark are both very similar to UserBenchmark. I use those, instead. Both tend to show up in google results when you search one CPU vs another. You just have to scroll down the results a little further.
There's Versus and CPUBenchmark. They have similar data, though it's maybe not laid out as well. They usually show up in the top 15 or so results when you search one CPU versus another, just lower than UserBenchmark, obviously.
I like their interface which is pretty good. An unbiased site with this interface would be great to have.
Versus and CPUBenchmark don't have as nice of interfaces, but have similar side-by-side comparisons. They tend to show up in results a little lower.
I like the idea of user benchmark, but i wish someone would create a website that does what it does without the crazy whack biases.
That would be TechPowerUp, long time vets in the industry with an INSANE amount of testing data.
@@RicochetForce No, TPU doesn't have nearly the user submitted database, and is still subject to editorial issues (just not nearly as bad)
@@MrKlaatu06 TPU not having the user submitted database is a boon for the site, not a negative.

@@MrKlaatu06 Anand tech had the actual professionals doing the reviews. But that gem of a resource is also closed.

Userbenchmark has been meme for years, Every half competent guy is using it to laugh hard of this shill and cheater.
Except he's probably making money off of ad revenues due to the listing on google and such.

I think Userbenchmark might actually be owned by Intel, or owned by a company which Intel has part ownership of, or something like that.

Yeah, I was hearing some people discuss building a PC before a college lecture, and they were talking about how they were using UserBenchmark to figure out which CPU to get. I didn't know any of those guys and didn't chime in, but agree that it is a big problem and a lot of normies (aka people who aren't weird and play pc part picker simulator 10 hours per day) are probably ending up there instead of good resources.
According to userbenchmar you should get a 9700k instead of 7800x 3d. It scores more old points and the x3d V cache is powered by AMD's evil and arrogance.
I had blocked that site from my browser years ago.
Hello could you tell how
Literally need it for every new gen that comes one to filter the result
How to block?
Can u enlighten all the viewers that come across ur comment?🫵🏿
Fun fact, even Intel hates user benchmark and refuses to give them review samples of their CPUs
Why do they do this?
UserBenchmark is basically Homer Simpson meme come to life. "Boy... everyone is stupid except me!"
UserBenchmark need to look at some benchmarks 🤣
Gonna be honest, I hate the fact that RUclipsrs have to do stupid faces for thumbnails cause of the algorithm, but "concerned Daniel face" is just hilarious to look at lol.
I got tired of it and installed an extension that just put a frame of the video, is called "Clickbait Remover for RUclips"
The worst offender is that PC Centric RUclipsr from the UK. OMG he's annoying and has the most annoying thumbnails. In every Thumbnail he looks like a overly forced smiling Where's Waldo.
@@_jn0298 DeArrow also lets users submit custom titles for videos to make them less clickbaity and more descriptive together with picking a frame for the thumbnail, i definitely clicked on some videos i wouldn't have otherwise thanks to that
I believed Daniel was an evil overloard ,bent on destroying my childhood dreams.For at least 3 seconds.
Hey user benchmark, Intel E cores are garbage mate.
I am always wary of the "The"
Never liked The. The is a bad guy.
UserBenchmark is like a Reddit moderator's dream review site. The smugness, the reaching, the bloat of useless information, it's just a Reddit replier.
Once again here to request a look at the history of generational GPU price:performance improvement over the years 🙏

@@HoneyTwee i wanted to comment that lol
About 10 years ago I went to that website and knew straightaway the numbers were all bs.
Same here bro. I always go looking elsewhere for my GPU comparisons. I want an actual valid comparison so I can make a good judgement not based on bullshi7.
that website is a joke, I don't think there is anyone left who doesn't know this.
There are. A lot . Normies and first timers think is an actual reputable review site, is a huge problem.
Me I'm new to building pc built my first one this year I didn't know they wasn't good doesn't help its the top search result when asking about what is the performance difference between 2 parts
I kinda did when buying my first laptop 3 years ago.
Oh, I expect there are a LOT of people who don't realize how tremendously biased UserBenchmark is against AMD.
I honest-to-god had no idea how biased UserBenchmark was (used it for years as a way to define how "good" my computer was), until I decided to replace one of my very old intel computers by building one that had a Ryzen 3600 CPU. Mind, I'd been periodically building my own PC's for years by then.
The numbers I got for my Ryzen build, according to UserBenchmark, were so insanely awful, even my amateur behind knew something was "off" about them. Checked around at that point, and finally realized that UserBenchmark had a serious bias against AMD and Ryzen products, and I haven't trusted them since.
But that was years after I began putting together my own computers, which had always been Intel/Nvidia builds.
User Benchmark has been failing for over a decade now. They are EXTREMELY BIAS.....
user benchmarks are so bad, I didn't even have to go and see what people say about them, I myself realized the website is absolute shit.
I agree man, userbenchmark is just a bunch of liars LMAO
I'm so glad I didn't care about that shitty website before. I always watch videos for CPU and GPU comparison, at least 3 videos.
They should add columns on how good looking was the box it comes in and how many bicep curls you can do with this specific hardware.
But Daniel, how else will I know how much eFPS I'm getting?
why would anybody trust some website over actual youtube videos showing you actual the gaming benchmarks for the part you want to buy?
Most don't know game benchmark videos are a thing.
Cause they don't want to sit and watch a 10 min video. They click the first Google result, see the numbers and fancy graphs ("oh the 13600k is better than the 7800x3d, cool") close the browser, they are done.
Some websites are very reputable. Anandtech was great, but it's shutting down. You can still access previously published articles from it though. It's a fantastic resource.
Techpowerup is pretty good. This channel often uses Techpowerup data for reference.

It did not take me long after reading the comments in that website a while ago to realize a certain level of what I perceive as bias (to be polite) integral to the website. Certainly avoid it entirely if you are looking into PCs. 110% agree with Mr Owen on this topic. Great to see someone pointing out one of the pitfalls out there for those looking to build a system or evaluate component purchases.
Intel can't afford real writers anywhere so UserBenchmark is now written by chatgpt
I don't think chatgpt can be that unhinged lol
Intel got rectum reamed really really badly in an FTC anti-trust lawsuit about 20 years ago, precisely on the grounds of manipulating the benchmark software used by a popular review site (the site was partly owned by Intel via shell companies). Intel was forced to write "Benchmarks are not indicative of real world performance and may be skewed by choice of compiler vendor for the benchmark in question" (or some such) in fairly large letters at the bottom of every single marketing slide featuring software for 15 years straight. Previously Intel sold compiler licenses to everyone.... after that shit show Microsoft scooped up that market.
TL;DR: Intel still has nightmares about about it, which is why they avoid UB like the plague. They block them on all their community pages, and I wouldn't be surprised if their e-mail server automatically bounce every e-mail from them with an error message. And I say this as an AMD "fanboi".
@andersjjensen That's not how any of that works. The ruling class have had decades to figure out ways to cover their traces when it comes to spending money on influencing public opinion.
@@andersjjensen ofc they are behind UB. criminals like these big companies don't just "reform", they only learn to hide their tracks better.
14700K scores 33.5k in Cinebench R23
7800X3D scores 17.7k in Cinebench R23
That 14700K is 89% faster in every other use other than gaming
I don't know why you pick this comparison to make your point, Daniel.
14700K is the clear logical winner here unless all you do in life is just to play game at 10fps higher than intel users.
The way people talk about cpus these days you would think everyone only uses their pc to play games at 1080p low settings.
do you work for userbenchmark? just because it scores higher in cinebench doesnt mean, its 89% faster in everything else....be happy with your higher "64-core" score (whatever that means)
I remember 2kliksphilip made a video on userbenchmark and what a clown show the reviews were. Funny to see they're still the same haha
It‘s really a shame, because the concept of the page really is great. Why do they ruin it with their BS?
Where is the part that 14th gen is literally degrading itself to get parity on performance 😂
Thank you for this I never knew that every time I searched a comparison two parts user benchmark pops up and I always use it because I didn't know they were biased thank you.
Enjoyed the content of the video, but if your main reason of releasing this is to "Inform people about it" please consider putting the topic SOMEWHERE in your title or thumbnail.
I get playing the algo game but not including the content of your information in either place and claiming to want to inform people about this sits oddly. It could be as simple as putting "Userbenchmark" anywhere in the thumbnail instead of just generic flames.
as someone who uses the DeArrow extension, I did not even notice it! they automatically change the titles to include the relevant information! One of the best extensions, along with sponsorblock, and untrap for youtube!! big recommend!
Thank you for calling them out, Gamers Nexus did the same thing a couple of years ago.
UserBenchmark is just The Onion for component reviews.
4:18 I think companies and websites may have other ways to get to the top of the google search results, besides relying on click count exclusively.
LoserBenchmark.
What's even worse is that it's not even free anymore, to even attempt the basic benchmark it say's you now need to upgrade to premium which is a bummer.
UserBenchmark
kek
$480??? I’m so glad I upgraded 8 months ago.
oh loserbenchmark. theyre useless lol
I'm actually glad you made this. I've used it a lot but never really looked into it. i saw the bias in the conclusions. I assumed because of the name the numbers where based on the user bench marks. so i thought as long as i just look at the numbers i'm good. never thought to see if they where injecting useless metrics to skew the results. like really age, market share, user ratings, who cares show me the performance. some results i knew where off but just didn't think nafariously so
The reason why Userbenchmarks hates 7800x3d and prefers 14700k is 7800x3 = 23400 and 14700k is same as 14700000 so bigger number means better is their most advanced test.
Thank you for the heads up Daniel and it's probably a good idea keep an eye open for misleading stuff in general for tech or life.
Ha! I expected a talk about how bad it is to pair entry level GPUs with a 7800X3D, not another UserBenchmark roast. But your voice-over was hilarious. 😋
This was called out ages ago, what's funny is that multiple youtube channels talked about this, and that 7800X3D "totally unbiased review" is still there. New people building their very first PC should/must be aware of this maidenless behavior.
I used User Benchmark to help me purchase my new PC for its graphics card. I also used your video on Black Myth Wukong. I also used other videos, but thank you for being reputable for the gaming community members.
If User Benchmark is truly this bad, then a class action lawsuit is not too far behind. I wish Game Debate was still running. I really liked them and their community. It was built to help, remove unwanted comments, and was surrounded by people who knew what they were talking about. It then just stopped a couple years ago.
Sadly is a huge problem since normies understanding is that the first google search result is the best one and should be trusted also normies dont read the paragraph, they look at the numbers and fancy graphs and they are done, so they never realize they are reading outright lies.
just a monetized grasp for more influencer $$ but not from a youtube platform relevancy thanks daniel you have the focus of what is needed for a pc's components
Google should do something about those search results, they have no business showing up first. Write them complaints
When you see that happen, click the option button next to the result and write the complaint yourself. It's already been working to some extent because it now lists the site as controversial and is no longer the top result for me.
@@Nareimooncatt I have written them more than once, I thought it didn`t work
thankyou. im not tech savvy in this field and was until now, a user benchmark user. my eyes are now open.
Early in learning about pcs I always used user benchmark. Then, after comparing cpu and gpu benchmarks from youtubers like you, I noticed a big discrepancy. Love to see videos like this. I felt discouraged after my first build being ryzen and looking at their comparisons. Great video my doooooood!
I was concerned when I saw the thumbnail until the first frame I saw UBM in the background. Instant relief
This site should be labeled as actual misinformation and EXCLUDED from any search. This word is so overused nowdays especially if you are simply with disagreement with someone but this time it's the real deal.
But if a garbage website says something that is true, and you make the mistake of discarding it just because they were the ones who said so, then you lack critical thinking.
User benchmark is just a joke, I have never take them seriously
I am glad you are calling this site out. I personally do not use their rating system. They are clearly biased toward Intel/Nvidia
At this point I still don't understand why AMD don't go after them, they are clearly hurting the brand in a dishonest way by making false claims, this is totally illegal
Userwenchbark swears to God that a RTX 3050 is in the same league as the RX 6600, what an absolute joke xD
The industry should come together and create a non biased version of user benchmark, and call it "true benchmark".
i already knew userbenchmark was garbage like 8 years ago. I guess they haven't changed.
The real shame is the usefulness of the actual benchmarking tool as a diagnostic to ensure that your system is performing as it should. It tests CPU/GPU/Memory/Storage against others of the exact same model in there database and shows where your individual parts are performing in relation. It can often reveal a configuration error or hardware problem, or reassure you that everything is functioning as it should. Too bad the site is such garbage.
I never use userbench marks. They've always seem to have biased results. I prefer amalgamating several different reviews and performance numbers, then making a decision.
These clowns need to be benchmarked by youtubers and see how it feels
When I am about to purchase hardware for a gaming system I use multiple sources and look for congruence.
Great site, HUGE wasted potential because of so much worthless information and bias.
Yeah, I found myself on user benchmark when looking for what graphics card to buy. Just like in this video, I found myself reading a huge block of text that seemed to contradict itself of absolutely belittle the part I was looking to buy like it was personal or something. 😂
Then I scrolled back up and saw the thing about “Why do RUclipsrs not promote us?” and put the pieces things together lol
Honestly I've thought for a long time that Valve ought to try their hand at a hardware comparison system like this integrated into Steam.
Have participation be opt-in and anonymous, obviously, but the amount of per-game performance data across every hardware combination imaginable that they could potentially compile and make available would be ridiculous; and make sites like UserBenchmark irrelevant almost immediately. Better still, developers could utilize it to better identify and address unexpected issues with very specific configurations they couldn't test internally, and the "minimum/recommended specs" section of a game's store page could update over time to reflect the performance of actual players; maybe even giving a rough performance estimate based on your own exact system, further incentivizing devs to take optimization seriously.
Would be a TON of work on Valve's end of course, but I suspect they could pull it off better and more easily than basically anyone if they wanted to.
Sometimes newer isn't better, in fact, it has been an issue more than once for something new to be problematic in some way.
I have only a few sources for trusted data. You are one of them.
I noticed this actually. I'm trying to do research to build a PC but I found their website wasn't actually helpful at all. I think RUclips benchmark videos are way more reliable. The type of language they're using when talking about 7800x3d pretty much sums up what type of person they are.
You can tell that site owner is a few sandwiches short of a picnic just by looking at that animated gif from 1990s web design. Utter madlad.
I'd hope people "Researching" parts performance would check more than a single source for information.
Next move; someone make a better, unbiased version of this site and leave this biased website in the dust.
Every computer parts vendor should warn their customers about this garbo site
Makes you wonder who owns user benchmark. Why is it at the top? Intel + NVIDIA?
More likely it's some schizo with a chip on their shoulder.
I'm sure Rolls Royce has a much smaller market share than Hyundai. But, I doubt anybody thinks Hyundai makes a better car than Rolls Royce.
I miss gpuboss and cpuboss...
If we ever get an alternative, we should call it UserBemchingmark
I tried it out after years and it has become a sh*t show with that cheesy game in the beginning for the free version. Back in the day I was helping out a clan and sometimes online troubleshooting their PCs and userbenchmark was nifty because the other guy could run it and send you the link to the results and you could see what component was the problem, if the PC was complete trash or if he just had too many background tasks running. Well, these times are over. RIP Userbenchmark.
As an overthinker, and someone who can’t make easy decisions without extensive research, I can fully confirm that userbenchmark is an absolutely useless comparison tool.
