Toms is awful. It has been ever since Tom left ages ago. I wrote for HardOCP, and we made fun of them all the time, or got legitimately mad when they'd publish straight up misinformation or repost our reporting without credit.

Jokes on HardOCP, I guess. Tom's Hardware still alive because they write clickbait or repost others' news, mostly

Depending on what you're interested in specifically, instead of Tom's, I'd read Gamer's Nexus (specifically their text articles), Eurogamer and their Digital Foundry division, and Notebookcheck. Maybe Videocardz and Techpower up for more "rumor" type articles.

There are other niches, like semi magazines or IEEE Spectrum, NewAtlas, IgorsLab for cooling and fan testing, stuff like that.
