Whats on your holiday tech wishlist?

As I've been beginning to start thinking and putting together my wishlist for the holiday season, I've been struggling a little with coming up with things to want, totally a first world problem right? Or, at least, things to want that weren't so outlandishly priced... looking at you, Star Wars Titan XPs ://// 
So here's my question to the awesome people of the LinusTechTips forum: What sort of tech gadgets, PC accessories, parts, and otherwise are you all looking to receive this year?

(PS: @LinusTech this would totally make a cool video in December, or sometime down the road at least before its too late to buy anything ;o; )

Ideally a Switch or a Strix 1060 6GB, buuuut I doubt it's gonna happen.

[shadowbyte]

definitely a switch and/or a pair of earbuds that are nicer than earpods

[Crunchy Dragon]

I'm hoping to redo my PC this year, although that's probably a bit of a stretch

[General Winter]

a 1080ti gpu

 

though im fine with my r9 390 something like that would beastly

[Ryois]

Moving to S8 from iOS, HTC Vive, accessories for the S8, Steam Credit, more

yeAH we've been definitely hardcore considering a switch over here, the only reason I'm not super hyped because I know my brother will mostly hog it, especially nowadays since most games (most definitely including the good ones like Breath of the Wild and Splatoon 2) are single player, I know he'll hardly want to take turns... long story short i want my co-op campaign games back
and aside from that i was never a huge Nintendo fanboy in the first place to be dedicated enough to their ips to motivate me to get their consoles very often aside from peer pressure, mostly because they just weren't what I grew up with in the same way.
Hopefully those hardware issues I've been seeing about it being cheaply made etc etc aren't too bad though?

I thought about getting a new phone lately like one of the newer iPhones or a Pixel what with how mine's been acting lately since iOS 11, but the thought of losing my prized headphone jack in exchange for those damn earpods has most definitely scared me off for now

[SansVarnic]

Star Citizen 3.0 release....

[Godlygamer23]

I'm hoping to do a full system upgrade and converting my build down to a mini-ITX or micro-ATX form factor. 

[TidaLWaveZ]

-PETG tubing

-EK HDC Fittings

-EK Acid Green CryoFuel

 

and if we're wishing I want a D5 pump/res combo but since I'll be paying for all of my own gifts it's out of the question.

After using a friend's Switch the only thing I see maybe being an issue in the long run is the joycon mounting possibly getting loose, but it's probably fixable if it happens.

 

Best part is if I buy a Switch I won't have to share it. :3

[Noyu]

basically, upgrade plan = wishlist hahaha

• Silverstone ML08
• RX 580

other than that I also plan to get  the ff:

• Gamesir G3S Wireless Gamepad

 

not on the plan but would be nice to get, (this is a WISHlist isn't it?)

• Scythe Big Shuriken 2 Rev. B
• Crucial Ballistix Sport LT DDR-2400 (black/white/gray) 1x8GB
• Logitech G603 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Mouse

 

sadly I don't have friends/family that understand this hobby we call PC building (and gaming) so I would probably have to buy them myself. T_T

[QuantumBit]

Powerline adapter, mechanical keyboard, maybe a new desk

I am asking my parents and people for money, because they are complete non techies and I don't want them to get me the wrong parts

[MoonlightSylv]

Nintendo Switch+Mario Odyssey and BOTW

[BingoFishy]

oneplus 5t, u3 microsd card

[ElZamo92]

Dunno. I already have everything I would like. Maybe I'll get braided cables for my PSU. 

[wONKEyeYEs]

I think santa will get me a Thermaltake Dr. Power II.

 

 

[BuckGup]

Probably another GPU for mining

[rakshasa72]

An Antminer.  Probably isn't going to happen for Christmas but, I'll have enough to get one with this years tax return.  Antminer paid for by Uncle Sam.

So sad he had to change his channel name.  It's either I get the Antminer or an insane outdoor pellet grill.  They both produce heat make noise and cost money to run.  Only one has the potential of making that money back.
