Does this decrease CPM?

[NicsterV]

I do top 5 videos on my channel and I'm in a gaming network. (Curse) Most of my videos are about gaming YouTubers, however, so do you think because my videos aren't really about gaming, this lowers my CPM?

If you're advertising as gaming, gaming ads will still play if it's relevant enough. CPM more so matters on watch time and engagement of the viewers, however niches and sub-niches of course do factor into the equation. Just make sure you're going for targeted stuff.
