Methodology

Every number on this site is a manufacturer's published rating or a value from a maintained community specification database — never a guess. This page states the rules.

Sources

The catalogue (510 SSDs, 275 motherboards, 236 AIO coolers, 70 graphics cards) is compiled from manufacturer specification sheets and community-maintained hardware specification tables, then enriched during import with our own research and open data — photo matching, interface normalisation, capacity variants and verified retail identifiers. Specifications are used as published. Every inclusion rule, ranking metric and page criterion on this site is our own, and each list page states the rule it uses.

What the ratings mean

Sequential speeds are the manufacturer's peak rating. Unless a page says otherwise, the headline figure is for the fastest capacity in a product family — smaller capacities are often rated slower, and where per-capacity ratings exist we show them on capacity-specific pages. Endurance (TBW/DWPD) is the manufacturer's warranty figure, quoted for the largest capacity in the family; it is not a measured result.

Missing values stay empty

When a field is not in our source data — power-loss protection, per-capacity endurance, single- versus double-sided M.2 layout — the cell stays empty or the page says the data is not recorded. We do not estimate, interpolate or copy values between similar products.

How ranked lists are built

Every list page states its inclusion rule and its ranking metric in the opening section. A configuration page is only published when at least four real products match it. Rankings are computed from the specification data alone; commercial relationships cannot move a product up or down.

Amazon links, prices and stock

A product links directly to Amazon only when we hold a verified product identifier for that exact model; a wrong link is worse than no link, so uncertain matches fall back to a tagged Amazon search. We never publish prices, stock or availability — we cannot verify them, and stored prices go stale — which is why every button says "check price" rather than showing one.
