The Hardware Unboxed Podcast

Steve and Tim from the massively popular Hardware Unboxed YouTube channel bring their no-nonsense PC hardware expertise to podcast form. Every week (mostly -- they will occasionally skip one), the pair spend about 60 to 90 minutes breaking down the latest GPUs, CPUs, monitors, and gaming peripherals with the kind of benchmark-backed analysis that has made their YouTube channel a go-to resource for PC builders worldwide. The podcast sits at 99 episodes with a strong 4.8-star rating from 53 reviews, and the most recent episode from March 2026 tackled the increasingly tricky question of whether future-proofing your PC build is even possible anymore. That gives you a sense of what to expect -- not just product rundowns, but genuine takes on where the industry is headed and whether manufacturers are actually delivering value. Steve and Tim have a natural back-and-forth that makes technical content feel like a conversation rather than a lecture. They are not afraid to call out bad products or praise good ones, regardless of brand loyalty. If you have ever spent three hours reading GPU comparison charts before pulling the trigger on a purchase, this podcast basically does that homework for you. Particularly strong on graphics cards and monitor tech, though they cover the full spectrum of PC components. Australian accents included at no extra charge.
