How we work

Editorial Policy

How Zombrax researches, writes, and reviews its content — and how we stay independent.

Last updated: January 12, 2026

Trust is the only thing that makes a publication worth reading. This page explains how we research, write, review, and maintain everything on Zombrax — and how we keep our recommendations independent.

How we choose what to cover

We write about problems real gamers have: picking parts that fit a budget, whether a GPU is worth the upgrade, which peripherals actually last, and how to claw back frames from the hardware you own. Ideas come from our own builds, reader questions, and recurring problems we see people struggle with. We do not chase trends for traffic's sake.

How we research and write

Every article is written or edited by a named member of our team with direct experience of the topic. When we recommend a part or a setting, we have built with it, installed it, or benchmarked it ourselves. We draw on primary sources — manufacturer specs, first-hand testing, and our own benchmark runs — rather than recycling what other sites say. Claims that depend on numbers are linked to their source.

Editing and review

Before publication, each piece is reviewed for accuracy, clarity, and usefulness. We ask a simple question of every draft: would this genuinely help a reader, or is it just filling space? If it is the latter, it does not run.

Our use of AI tools

Our articles are written and edited by people. We may use software for spell-checking, research, or suggesting outlines, but a human writer is responsible for the substance, accuracy, and final wording of everything we publish. We do not publish auto-generated content.

Independence and advertising

Zombrax is funded by advertising and, occasionally, affiliate links. To protect your trust:

  • We never accept payment to give a positive review or to feature a product in editorial content.
  • Advertising is clearly distinguishable from articles.
  • Affiliate relationships never change our verdict — see our disclaimer for the full disclosure.

Corrections

We get things wrong sometimes, and when we do, we fix them quickly and transparently. If you spot an error, email [email protected] or use our contact form. Substantive corrections are noted on the article.

Updates

Because hardware and best practices evolve, we revisit popular guides and refresh them. When an article is meaningfully updated, the publication date reflects the most recent revision.

Questions

If anything about how we work is unclear, we'd genuinely like to hear from you. Reach us any time at [email protected].
