Having issues with my wifi?
I built a custom pc recently, and I'm starting to have issues with the wifi speed. I tried resetting the router, and I even checked the speed on other devices connected to the network and it was very fast. I uninstalled and reinstalled my wifi drivers, and I changed the speed of the network adapter from 2.4 GHz to 5 GHz,…

Open Box Motherboard
I recently purchased an open box motherboard and it was labeled as nothing missing just open box and at the store I asked for them to check if it was missing anything they said no. I came home and it was missing the wifi antennas and the m.2 screws + standoff. Is there anyway I could just get these things I believe the…

Gigabyte board, i7, 64GB RAM (RipJaw DDR3-1600)
I brought a PC home from work that was (excessed--i.e., "who wants it?") after someone left. It was a custom build with a Gigabyte board, the fastest i7 at that time (~5 years ago), and it has 4 small RipJaw RAM cards (F3-12800CL10D-16GBXL) which are DDR-3-1600. A couple years ago, I removed the two spin-disks, installed a…

Avoiding Windows 11
I did the Windows 11 upgrade and a) did not like it and b) discovered it did not work with some older business software used for specialty purposes. So I restored my desktop back to Windows 10.

How often do microcenters usually restock their GPU?
I’m looking to get a new GPU (3070) but there’s always out of stock. Curious if they get stock every week or how it usually works. I live about an hour and a half away so I’m tired of getting my hopes up.

I'm Bob sometimes known as Natural Bob in music circles.
One year after purchasing my HP Pavilion laptop I'm getting an email saying that my Norton Antivirus subscription was renewed, but we didn't order that. I don't know if calling the phone number will be a way to straighten this out or to get hooked by a phishing scheme. The message is coming from someone named Juvlein Wyatt.

Sim racing gear
First of I want to thank MicroCenter for starting to stock higher end sim racing gear. My question is, why isn’t any of it displayed in the store? My store is Sharonville Ohio and if you didn’t look online you wouldn’t know they stock simCube, or the higher end rigs just to name a couple things.

Just a reminder to have a backup DP cable.
I just got my 3060 recently and was about return it. My VGA light on my Asus board kept coming on at random times and my monitor would never fully enter power save mode, it would go black but stay on with white lite around the edges. I finally bought a good DP cable 'Vesa Certified' and all my issues are solved.

Reserving GPU
Given how few and far between Micro Center stores are, it seems like it should be possible to reserve a GPU. I realize that people line up before the store opens, but I would venture to guess that an hour after the stores open, those people have gotten what they were waiting for. When you live over two hours away, driving…
