This is what Tom's Hardware readers clicked the most during Prime Day — Portable displays, DVD burners, the Nintendo Switch 2, and two decent SSD deals, among others

In a year with sky-high storage and RAM prices, effectively no new GPUs, and the resultingly tepid interest in PC building (especially when you can buy a prebuilt PC for significantly less), we were curious to see what our readers were clicking on the most. And much of it was not what we could have possibly predicted.

While we were working night and day (literally) searching for and sharing deals in live blogs, standalone posts, deal hubs, and Discord, you were clicking away on all sorts of things. The couple of reasonable SSD deals from WD and Samsung, of course, did well. And people were checking for GPU deals that were mostly non-existent, as well as general PC and accessory links.

But the undisputed click leaders were Corsair’s Xeneon Edge portable touchscreen monitor (even though it was out of stock for more than a day), DVD burners, and the Nintendo Switch 2. Despite dealing with its own price hike, between the $1,049 starting price of the Steam Machine, the high cost of gaming PCs, and pricier consoles, if you can get $100 off a Switch 2, it’s no surprise that Nintendo’s latest console looks good to cash-strapped gamers.

You can see a list of our most-clicked products and deals (for those that are still available) below, in descending order. Note that not all deals are still valid forever, as prices are changing quickly. We also have blocks with more info for each product, and finally, a list of our 25 deals hubs that we've been maintaining for a week now.

    I checked out portable displays, but not committing yet. I want to try a vertically oriented one. Maybe using a VESA mount arm.

    I looked at SFF builds and consider building my own mostly because of the recent craze for the Steam Weak Box
