Now that the old site is over, where do I go for reviews/labtests/etc? I used to use the computerbuyer/shopper/pcpro/cpc sites.

I use Anandtech, Hexus, Tom's hardware, Clunk.org and Bit-tech. Googling works too...

I use google as a last resort, you get flooded with results from shopping sites that say 'be the first to review this product'.

Usually, I go with the Dennis sites, Bit, Hexus and Anandtech, not so much Toms Hardware anymore; I don't like their comparison charts.

True, but I look at url's that Google throws out, not description.

One thing I forgot to mention is Newegg.com.
It is massive online retailer in USA and they have reviews on each product they sell. Reviews are done by people who actually bought the product so they are extremely useful. Popular items have as much as couple of hundred reviews...

YouTube's always worth a go for certain electronics if you're searching for reviews anyway - cameras, phones etc...
