Note that the jump isn't quite as big as this would suggest. There were a large number of Chinese users for Chinese New Year. It is no longer Chinese New Year. In the previous month Chinese users were overrepresented, and in the current month Chinese users are ... I don't know.

Also, link for the hardware survey. https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey

Yeah, I take any of the sudden jumps with a grain of salt, figuring it's due to cybercafes getting more surveys or something like that. It usually bounces back the next month. The overall trend is more interesting to me than the specific numbers.
