I'd like to suscribe to an american PC magazine, there are problaby many but some not as good as others, and since I don't live there it's kinda hard for me to decide. Can someone recommend me a good magazine that focus on PC hardware stuff mostly and maybe a small gaming section? I know this doesn't have to do anythin directly with CPUs but I didn't know where to post it =/
Thanks!

Thanks for that link but I can get reviews of stuff with tomshardware and anandtech. I'm looking at magazines now. Anyone else has something to say?

Splendid
I have something to say. :)

I've found that PC magazine's are usually inferior to enthusiast sites like this one. Magazines generally take about 20 days to publish; so their reviews are often outdated. Also, i've noticed they aren't very comparitive or thorough. They'll often benchmark a new product, but they hardly ever stack it up against a slew of competitors.

IMO magazines are for people just getting into computers. That being said I have nothing against magazines (i used to subscribe to them years ago when i was just starting out), but now I find them... too simple.

Sorry if I offended anyone.

I subscribe to CPU magazine. I enjoy reading all the articles in them. Sometimes they put some neat stuff in them also i can reference back to them later.

Just my 2 cents 8)

I understand your point, and yes, they might be a bit outdated and the reviews may be a little 'weak' or 'simple' for people like you, who already have years working with comps. But I'm rather new to it, so I'd say it's a good start to suscribe to a magazine for now. I mean, I couldn't solve any of the questions/problems people ask here and you guys give solutions to.
