How did you learn about AnandTech?

[Mik3y]

I was part of the PCStats forum and they were talking trash about the Anandtech forums, so I took a look at ATOT and became hooked ever since.

I think i was looking up a review on a video card or something, and came across this site.

I wasn't fufilled with hardware centrals forums or Hardocp or firing squad or sharky's and then I found this place

 

[edfcmc]

Looking up reviews for the FIC PA-2007.

 

[Stumps]

damn, I have to think a long way back, umm that was back in about 99 when I was looking on info for the S3 Savage 4 video cards, I signed up in 2001, just so I could harrase yanks...cause they crack me up so much

I had decided I wanted to build my own PC. So I googled for computer tech forums and found Anand. Loved it.

 

[TallBill]

Wow, a decent amount of sharky vets. Kinda suprising.

 

[moshquerade]

i was looking for hot deals - googled this place up.

 

[drinkmorejava]

friend told me about the Hot Deals forum.

 

[narutofan36]

i needed some computer help so i searched big-boards.com for computer hardware and i found this

 

[imported_Condor]

I watched Hot deals from Unkraine for a couple of years before I ever signed up.

 

[walrus]

I realy don't remember. It might have been when the voodoo extreme forum went bust.

I was doing a high school research project, came across this site, and asked something in the forums.

 

[Captante]

I stumbled across an article comparing several different types of PC-100 SDRAM written by some kid named Anand...

I lurked on Hot Deals and then joined to post in P&N during the 2004 Presidental Campaign...been posting there ever since.

Same here IIRC

 

[shortylickens]

Dont remember how, but I got into the reviews way back in 99.
Never even looked at the forums until 2000. Didnt bother signing up because I thought internet forums were stupid. (Still have little evidence to the contrary.)
Anyway, I lurked for a long time and one day I noticed a guy in Peripherals had a question about SPDIF and such. I made an account and posted just so I could help him.
I had an average of about .1 posts per day for a year.
Then I found OT.

a link off of bensbargains

I think It was the For Sale and For Trade forum. Came up in googles search engine. Wasn't until 6 months later I actually found the huge amount of information on this site helpful.

 

[eminemrh25]

Well, I was using ResellerRatings to start online buying and selling through forums and I noticed a lot of ppl had Anandtech as a place where the deals took place...

 

[Asthmaboy]

Found it through a Google search for how to build a PC.

 

[Shiizu]

An early article about Anand, describing his as a "boy wonder"
