Ghostwire: Tokyo / Doom Eternal Bundle / Geforce Code
Hello, I purchased an Asus TUF 3090 Ti that supposedly has a promotion attached to it for a game code for Ghostwire: Tokyo and Doom Eternal. I checked my original printed receipt, there is no code printed on it. Does Micro Center e-mail these codes separately or did I miss something at the checkout line? If possible,…

PC Won’t Turn On After Overcloking
So I recently built a PC with a 3070 Ti, i9-12900k, and MSI Pro Z690-A mobo. Yesterday, I tried overlocking it, and I think I messed something up. Because of that, my PC won’t turn on. I’ve tried resetting the CMOS multiple times. I don’t know what to do. I’m worried I killed my baby. Please, does anyone have any ideas of…

Integrate 10G Ethernet to 10G SFP
I'm looking to integrate 10G ethernet into my current SFP 10G network, but I'm not positive on how to go about it. I'm wondering if I could attach a Netgear XS512EM to my current SPF 10G switch and have everything talk to each other at full speed. Anybody have any suggestions or input? Thanks!

RTX 3080 Issue
I have installed a new RTX 3080 into my system. The computer powers on fine, but will not go past the Bios loading screen. Going back to my old GPU, a GTX 980TI, fixes everything, and everything boots up fine. But on the 3080, I am stuck perpetually on the Bios loading screen. I have updated my motherboard bios to the most…

Can Windows 11 revert to earlier version so I can upload an older program?
Hi. I recently bought Powerspec B685, running W11. I have an older printer which does not work with that. Is there a way to configure the computer to accept this older program? Otherwise I have to enter Hell and buy a new printer, which will most likely fail repeatedly. I read reviews and I see about 1 in 5 chance of…

New Samsung Odyssey G7 having DisplayPort connection issues
I recently purchased a Samsung Odyssey G7 28" 4K/144hz monitor [LS28AG700NNXZA] from MC and I've been having a weird issue with it: About once a day, the monitor will lose the DisplayPort input, go black for just 1-3 seconds - and immediately reconnect. A minor inconvenience, but very annoying. I've made sure the cables…

Black Screen Issue with Windows Power Settings
So I've been experiencing this weird issue that whenever my monitors turn off (doesn't happen when I change it to never turn off in Power Settings) the display drivers crash. My GPU is the RX 6600 XT. I RMA'd the card before and the manufacturer said it wasn't the issue so I'm at a loss to what could be causing the…

I just claimed a free 256gb SSD coupon and I think the SSD isn't working. I installed Windows on it like normal, went through the setup, and it worked perfectly fine. After restarting my computer to make it my boot drive, it wasn't detected in my BIOS. I tried unplugging my other drive to see if it would boot from the SSD,…

ASUS VG27AQL1A Went Berzerk!
I bought this monitor about a week ago and up until tonight it has been fantastic. I was playing Halo Infinite and it suddenly started flashing like crazy and wouldn't stop (like, seizure inducing flashing). I turned it off and back on, the flashing stopped but now there are vertical lines on the screen. The black void is…

External GPUs?
I've heard of a couple places that have external GPUs that a laptop can use to give more power when needed for more resource heavy gameplay. Is there anything that remotely possible to do so? I have a laptop, but I was debating on selling it and getting a desktop that's 900. But I doubt there's anything that has a 3050 RTX…

Can you rebuild your prebuilt in a new case?
Hello! I've had my G468 for a while now and was thinking about changing my setup. I was planning on just transferring the components into a new case. I don't see anything wrong with doing that, or how it would mess anything up, but I just want to make sure it's okay! P.S. I believe I don't have a warranty on it.
