WEBVTT

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:08.200
I know we cover a lot of hyper premium stuff on this channel GTX Titan XPS

00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:10.040
extreme Edition CPUs and the like mostly

00:00:08.200 --> 00:00:14.000
it's for the wow factor because you guys seem to love that stuff but that doesn't

00:00:12.599 --> 00:00:20.840
mean that that's what any of you actually buy so what does the typical LT

00:00:17.880 --> 00:00:27.519
viewer buy to find out I went through our entire Amazon Associates report for

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:27.519
last month all

00:00:27.560 --> 00:00:34.000
7,690 line items of it to to find the

00:00:30.880 --> 00:00:36.520
most popular PC components in the list

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:41.800
and put together what I'm calling the viewers Choice Award computer I also

00:00:40.120 --> 00:00:50.669
found some other really interesting stuff in there you guys be freaky

00:00:53.120 --> 00:00:58.719
ra Intel skull Canyon knck features a

00:00:56.359 --> 00:01:04.199
sixth generation core i7 quad core processor and Thunderbolt 3 learn more

00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:11.640
at the link in the video description the CPU was a shocker I said very clearly to

00:01:08.240 --> 00:01:14.119
our I thought gamer heavy audience in

00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:19.759
last month's video entitled what CPU should I buy that I didn't recommend

00:01:16.439 --> 00:01:24.400
anything higher than the core i5 6600k

00:01:19.759 --> 00:01:27.560
for gamers but more than all other CPUs

00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:28.920
combined the most popular choice was the

00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:35.200
core i76700k with half of those folks evidently

00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:41.840
opting for cooler Master's Great Value if not particularly amazing hyper 212

00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:44.600
Evo heat sink to go with it most people

00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:49.880
chose Corsair Vengeance lpx memory with the mode average speed being 3200 MHz

00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:56.000
and the most popular capacity being a single 2x8 gig kit for Chrome far into

00:01:53.920 --> 00:02:00.079
way the most popular motherboard was the ASUS

00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:04.719
z170a which outsold the rest of ASUS lineup put together so it looks like

00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:10.039
then my message about higher-end motherboards not performing any better

00:02:06.960 --> 00:02:12.280
came through loud and clear with most of

00:02:10.039 --> 00:02:17.959
you not valuing the extra features on the higher-end models video cards were

00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:24.599
the most popular computer component purchases among our viewers with NVIDIA

00:02:21.040 --> 00:02:27.080
holding 87% of the market share by units

00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:32.440
and a staggering 95.1% by Revenue though it would here

00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:38.560
that our viewers at least the ones who shop at Amazon using our code skew

00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:42.040
heavily toward the high end the GTX 1070

00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:44.239
and 1080 combined for over half of all

00:02:42.040 --> 00:02:48.480
video card sales on our report I mean these are 450 and

00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:54.239
$700 cards then on the board partner side of

00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:56.959
things EVGA was alone out front with Aus

00:02:54.239 --> 00:03:01.800
Gigabyte and MSI all battling hard for the number two spot and the top selling

00:02:59.200 --> 00:03:09.799
video card overall then was a tie between the EVGA GTX 1080 FTW gaming and

00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:12.239
MSI's gaming GTX 1070 maybe putting

00:03:09.799 --> 00:03:16.480
gaming in the product name really does work at least on Amazon where it's damn

00:03:14.640 --> 00:03:23.280
near impossible to use the filters to find anything storage was a landslide

00:03:20.200 --> 00:03:26.120
Victory the Samsung 850 Evo outsold the

00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:32.360
rest of Samsung's lineup and everyone else combined with 500 gigs as the most

00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:35.599
popular Capac capity by far this is what

00:03:32.360 --> 00:03:38.840
happens I guess when Intel just doesn't

00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:41.120
refresh their SATA ssds except when they

00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:46.360
feel like it though in Intel and micron's defense Samsung's industry

00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:48.319
leading TLC 3D nand flash and ACC

00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:53.480
companying controller technology makes them very hard to compete against

00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:55.760
without losing your shirt on every sale

00:03:53.480 --> 00:04:01.439
most of our viewers unsurprisingly chose the cheaper OEM Windows 10 home but this

00:03:58.760 --> 00:04:06.879
is cool about a third of them went with retail copies of Windows 10 on a USB

00:04:04.040 --> 00:04:11.040
drive instead of a download or a disc something I suspect more people would do

00:04:09.319 --> 00:04:16.120
if they knew it was available for 30 bucks more than OEM and the same cost as

00:04:13.720 --> 00:04:20.759
the download one with the more flexible retail copy license terms the most

00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:27.000
popular power supply was a bit of a surprise to me though maybe it shouldn't

00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:29.919
have been evga's Supernova 650 G1 80

00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:34.880
plus gold 650 wat unit has a full fully modular interface and a 10-year warranty

00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:41.080
both of which likely allowed it to handly beat out the rest of the crowded

00:04:37.479 --> 00:04:45.440
power supply Market the case was sort of

00:04:41.080 --> 00:04:48.759
a tie actually both the NZXT s340 and

00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:52.240
fantex Eclipse p400s sold the same

00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:55.800
number of units but fantex moved almost

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:58.479
as many of the $10 cheaper and nearly

00:04:55.800 --> 00:05:03.080
identical P400 so I'm going to give them the win here and it's a really

00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:05.360
impressive case for 70 to 80 bucks for

00:05:03.080 --> 00:05:11.360
cooling fans this was another are you guys even paying attention moment for me

00:05:08.280 --> 00:05:14.000
Corsair's AF series was Far and Away the

00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:20.800
most popular to be clear I've got no issue with Corsair fans but the SP

00:05:16.919 --> 00:05:24.039
series is a better allrounder I know it

00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:26.520
Corsair knows it how many AF variants do

00:05:24.039 --> 00:05:31.199
they even have of their newer lineup so why are you guys buying AFS when SPS are

00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:43.639
available to monitors I'm giving the win to Acer with the r240 HW BX IPS 23.8 in

00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:47.080
the Dell SE 2416 HX also a 23in IPS sold

00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:49.400
more units but it was one guy buying 10

00:05:47.080 --> 00:05:55.319
of them in one shot that pushed it Over The Edge versus individual buyers so one

00:05:53.080 --> 00:06:01.360
person really liking something a lot doesn't make it popular peripheral wise

00:05:58.919 --> 00:06:07.080
y'all have very expensive taste in mice with the Logitech g502 protus Spectrum

00:06:04.479 --> 00:06:13.039
on a steel series qck mouse pad taking care of your RGB desk decoration needs

00:06:10.440 --> 00:06:18.479
more of you went with cmstorm quickfire Rapids than any other keyboard though I

00:06:15.919 --> 00:06:23.240
did notice that keyboard sales seemed a little tepid I mean maybe if you push

00:06:21.160 --> 00:06:27.639
out enough mechanical keyboards that can handle 50 million keystrokes before they

00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:32.199
break people stop needing new ones at a certain point and Kingston's hyperx

00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:38.160
Cloud 2 gaming headset was trailed closely by sennheiser's hd598 special

00:06:35.080 --> 00:06:40.759
edition and the antl mod mic either of

00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:44.880
which are great choices for a headphone or headset we've got smart viewers

00:06:42.840 --> 00:06:49.800
sometimes so let's throw up a summary of our viewers Choice PC here while I go

00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:53.759
over some other highlights we'll have Links of course to where you can buy all

00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:59.680
of this stuff in the video description so more of you buy Microsoft

00:06:56.800 --> 00:07:06.000
Xbox wireless adapters than I expected and TP-Link seems to be the go-to for a

00:07:02.520 --> 00:07:08.800
cheap and cheerful network switch oh and

00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:12.639
we sold a whopping five Swingline staplers it looks like at least some of

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:16.199
you have learned that it's better to buy your own than to steal one from someone

00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:21.080
else they're like $12 on the subject though of that last

00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:25.240
item which isn't strictly speaking tech there were a lot of cool things that I

00:07:22.919 --> 00:07:29.400
encountered more than enough to do a full segment of cool and weird stuff our

00:07:27.599 --> 00:07:34.160
community buys on Amazon or maybe if you have a suggestion for what we should call it you could post that below but

00:07:32.400 --> 00:07:39.440
with all the Flack that I take every time we deviate ever so slightly from

00:07:37.319 --> 00:07:42.120
technology with some going as far as to complain when we talk about tech that

00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:47.840
isn't PCS hopefully you can understand my

00:07:45.039 --> 00:07:52.319
hesitation here so let me know in the comments did you like the PC version of

00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:56.919
this should we start tracking that regularly and looking for Trends do you

00:07:54.680 --> 00:08:01.800
want to see the non-tech stuff as a separate segment I promise you I will

00:07:59.520 --> 00:08:09.639
definitely be reading speaking of reading read my lips brain tree brain
