I got a Corsair Carbide 500R case, i was interested in it beforehand but seeing all the features and insides in a unboxing was what i needed to commit on it. Otherwise i don't think so, but i watch his videos more out of interest then whether i'm going to buy something or not.

I haven't bought anything yet based solely on his recommendations. I have bought stuff that I was already likely going to buy, but was researching features and quality a little more.

This may change in the near future. I am looking at some of the products he has given positive reviews and outright recommendations.
