There was time I read Tom's Hardware and thought that was the top of tech journalism and reviews,until the (i don't remember when) a revamp to the site that focused more on news. Then I found anandtech, reading all in depth article from the marketing material down to architecture level. It was very eye opening, the quality and depth is even on higher level. I was sad when Ian left, but now it's the ultimate sadness.
Tom's Hardware took a nosedive when Thomas Pabst left.
Selling it to have time with his kids (IIRC) was a fantastic choice, but I miss his version of it for sure.
There was a time in early 2000's when both sites were great and very competitive. I was reading both to see what opinions they have about products they both reviewed. Quality was very good on both sites, it changed later.
