Where we’re going

PERFRIG’s mission is simple: become the most trusted independent source for PC gaming hardware information.

We’re building the testing infrastructure to review every major GPU and CPU launch. We’re expanding coverage to more components, more games, more real-world scenarios. We’re creating the comprehensive hardware database PC gamers deserve.

Most importantly, we’re staying independent. No corporate buyouts. No manufacturer partnerships that compromise editorial freedom. Just honest testing, honest reporting, and honest recommendations.

Because that’s what you deserve.
