Deal sites have a reputation problem, and we know it. Below are short answers to the questions readers most often ask about how Gaming PC Promo decides what to publish.
Can a brand or retailer pay to have a deal featured?
No. We do not sell placements, sponsored rankings or “featured deal” slots. A brand cannot pay to be included in a roundup, to appear higher in one, or to keep a competitor out. Our editors choose every deal independently, and no outside party reviews posts before they go live.
What sources do you rely on?
Primary sources first: the retailer listing itself, the manufacturer’s spec page and official product documentation. For pricing context we use price history trackers. For performance we rely on independent hardware review sites and laptop review outlets. Owner reviews and forums inform our notes on reliability and seller quality.
Do you ever publish a number without a source?
No. Every price, discount percentage, spec or performance figure has to trace back to a source. If sources conflict, for instance two outlets reporting different frame rates for the same GPU, we mention the difference, consider the settings each used, and avoid quoting only the most favorable result.
How often are posts updated?
Deal posts are rechecked frequently because prices change daily. Evergreen buying guides are reviewed on a regular schedule and after major launches, seasonal sales or significant price shifts. Each post shows when it was last checked.
Is AI involved in writing?
Yes, as an assistant. AI helps us outline posts, organize research and draft text. Editors then revise and verify everything. AI is never allowed to invent prices, specs or performance results.
Do you receive free products?
We currently do not accept review units or free hardware in exchange for coverage. Should that change, or if a brand relationship affects an article, we will disclose it on that page. Our affiliate income is disclosed site-wide and does not change our rankings.
