hey guys iam new to pc's i see alot of dedicated benchmark channels comparing cpu's and gpu's whithout showing the builds only games side to side you can find any combo you search on youtube you name it .

the question do they really test the real componements or there is a way to fake the numbers ? ( iam only talking about channels like testing games and becnhmarks ... not the big youtubers)

My standard is that if the reviewer/channel does not show the physical GPU or CPU that is being benchmarked, it's most likely fake. YouTube is flooded with "simulated" performance videos, so unless a person speaks and intros the product, just ignore the vid.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

About 80% are fake, and out of those, 15% are paid fakes by various entities with stock holdings or monetary Interest. Only legit review channels are to be believed

IDK, a lot of the others may be fake. It is pretty easy to put up a graph and a video of gameplay.
