It’s implied that it was a decision by management. If I had to guess, it’s related to money and/or the redundancy cause by the same parent company owning both Tom’s Hardware and Anandtech.
Kind of unfortunate, since I always thought Anandtech had the better articles, but I guess this also preserves Anandtech’s legacy in some ways.
Ian Cutress shared on his YouTube channel that the owners saw it as redundant to Toms Hardware even though Anandtech was far more focused on architecture. He went into some detail about how Anandtech was pushed to become more generalist and consumer oriented, so basically it was redundancy that they themselves created
Any reason as to why they closing down???

Anandtech was more nerdy and technical and I presume less people were reading their articles But also the quality of their content was far superior.
