Compatibility and Benchmarks for Datasets #13

Hey @docyx

Thanks a ton for the datasets and the gem! They’ve been super useful for my school project.

Quick question—any chance you could add compatibility and benchmark info for the necessary components (motherboard, cpu, gpu)? It’d really help with making sure everything works together and understanding performance.

Thanks again for all your efforts!

Hey, happy to hear that this has been a useful resource for you.

See my reply to #12 here. TL;DR getting more info from the individual product pages would involve a complete rewrite and would make this script orders of magnitude more abusive than it already is.

I would have to find an alternative to PCPP with the same plethora of data which is quite hard. I remember researching when I first started this project and those sites are few and far between. So for now I would say this is not an option but if I ever find the time I can look into this a bit more in the future.
