Data sources

Here we explain where every piece of data in Components comes from. We do not invent hardware or games.

Transparent methodology

Every GPU, CPU or game page cites its source. When we estimate FPS we cross-check Steam's official requirements with catalog scores (TechPowerUp, Geekbench). If data is missing, we say so — no made-up numbers.

Guides at /guia/ and editorial notes on featured games are written to help you decide, not copied from stores. Report errors to contacto@gpucpucompare.com.

Data source · Hardware

TechPowerUp

Public spec catalog · Desktop GPUs and CPUs

Graphics card and processor pages, plus compare tables, are powered by public specifications collected by TechPowerUp — an industry reference for models, TDP, memory, architecture and more. Components uses that data; we are not affiliated with TechPowerUp.

733 GPUs in catalog
1002 CPUs in catalog

What information we use

  • Model, manufacturer and generation
  • VRAM, memory type and bus width
  • Base / boost clocks and TDP
  • Architecture, shaders, cores and threads
  • PCIe, DirectX, release date
Data source · GPU price

Wikipedia · GPU MSRP

Launch MSRP in USD · Not a store price

GPU prices on spec pages, the comparer and Compert are launch MSRP from Wikipedia's public GPU lists (NVIDIA, AMD and Intel Arc). That is not today's Amazon or retailer price. If Wikipedia does not publish a USD figure for a model, we leave the field empty.

What information we use

  • Official launch MSRP (USD)
  • Public Wikipedia GPU lists for NVIDIA, AMD and Intel
  • If no MSRP is published, the field stays empty
Data source · Games

Steam Store

Public store · Requirements, media and metadata

PC games, minimum and recommended requirements, banners, release year and descriptions come from the public Steam store. When you ask Compert how much a game costs, it quotes the current Steam listing (USD) if Steam publishes one; if there is no figure, we do not invent a price. Components does not sell games and is not affiliated with Valve.

112344 Games in catalog

What information we use

  • Minimum and recommended requirements (GPU, CPU, RAM)
  • Covers, banners and screenshots
  • Year, genre and game description
  • Current Steam list price when Compert answers how much a game costs (US store, USD). That is an approximation, not an Instant Gaming price
