Many of your desktops above $3000 that have 1TB SSD, 32GB are already outdated by far. Is there anyway we can make a purchase of a Dell, ASUS or PowerSpec desktop and have Microcenter tech modify them with larger SSDs+DDR5 memory there? Of course that will be extra. I'm being forced to make an Amazon purchase of such a…
Hi, I have some fans, a computer case, video card and a PSU that I bought outside of MicroCenter. If I use those parts alongside parts I bought at MicroCenter, can I pay a MicroCenter employee to build it? Or would all the parts have to be from MicroCenter?
Hello, I am currently looking for good gaming laptops that will last me a while. I am in grad school and like to play video games but currently only have console games. I would love to get a desktop eventually but due to space, cost, and time I can't go into that yet. That is why I would love some suggestions for a solid…
Hey guys, I built out a system on cyberpower a few months back (they built it, I picked parts). I tried to do some research as i'm not an expert in this field but I just want to post my specs and see if anyone has recommendations on things I made need to change. I adjusted my fan curve because I was having GPU heating…
I am new to the forum. I wanted opinions on a custom build. However, "you have to be around for a little while longer before you can post links." Anyone know how long that is? I am eager to get building. Thanks.
After getting home all excited to get my new computer all set up, I powered it up and loved all the colors in the case. As I went through the startup process I installed windows 11 as a free upgrade. After that it all went downhill. As the download finished and the pc restarted it came on with all the lights no longer…
Hello, Wasn't sure which category to ask this in. The live chat feature isn't enabled at the moment so can't ask there. I've been eyeing up the Ryzen 9 7900X bundle with the ASUS B650E-F motherboard, and 32GB G.Skill DDR5-6000 RAM It's currently listed on the bundle page for $599.99, which it has been for a little while…
My months old PowerSpec B-749 computer has amateur radio software loaded and had been working well. the software requires the USB Codec driver or software to be the way the external soundcard handles the digital signals. Yesterday the software quit working and I immediately looked in the software configuration for the…
I got a nice surprise today when reading an email from Microcenter thanking me for a purchase and requesting review of two items I DID NOT buy, worth over $1,600!! Of course my first concern was to check my Microcenter credit card account at Wells Fargo, and thankfully there were no new charges and the balance owed was as…
Hello, I purchased the AMD Radeon™ RX 6650 XT yesterday and I should have received a code the Last Of Us Part 1, and I do not see where I have that code. What do I need to do to receive that code? I did live chat and got it resolved.
Ordinally I would have called in advance but there is no phone number for my local micro-center (3089 Nutley St, Fairfax, VA) Here are photos of my laptop hinge that is breaking. Whenever I attempt to close the laptop the plastic breaks further and further. I am afraid to close the laptop as I worry it will be fully broken…
Hi. The cloning process is generally pretty easy, but something went wrong. Idea was to clone the HDD to an SSD and then remove the old drive. Something happened in the process, and the PC will only boot with both drives in the chain. The boot process is apparently pulling some data from the boot sector of the HDD. When I…

Hello, yesterday I went to MicroCenter for help with an invoice. I spoke to a nice gentleman called Russ and he helped me fill out an invoice. There are some things that need to be changed and I tried sending him an email from the email provided on the invoice he gave me. Gmail is saying that the email is not found and I…
The order history won't let me look up an order stating that it is limited to one year. That is incorrect. How do I fix my search? It is essential I look up an old purchase.

When trying to post reviews, while logged into my account, I get the error "nickname already used." Of course. It's my nickname. It's even pre-filled sometimes, so the site knows it's the one assigned to me. How do I get past this? Thanks.
