3060 launch at Columbus Ohio Store
I live in Northern Kentucky and was planning on going up to Micro Center tonight to wait in line for a 3060. I've called and read the forums and have seen no information regarding how the process is going to happen. I do not want to drive 5 hours just to be turned away because no stock is in or vouchers are being handed…

Powerspec G460 Wifi antennas loose
I've had my system a couple years now, and the problem has been there since day one, but taking the system across state to repair what is probably an easy fix hasn't felt justified. Is there something I can do to tighten the nuts on the antenna screw points? Is this a known issue with the Asrock z370 motherboard?

PowerSpec Clone C: Drive Windows Activation?
Hello, I recently purchased a PowerSpec G436 and noticed the MSI Z490 Plus mainboard has another available m.2 slot. I was going to purchase a WD 1TB Black SSD when I noticed it's faster than the pre-installed WD 1TB Blue in the PowerSpec. Because of this, I'd like to move the operating system over to it. Can I simply…

I have purchased 2 prebuilt powerspec systems in the past 2 weeks. I purchased a Wraith Prism to install in the G164 system but I noticed that the plastic motherboard mounts for are not included in the box that the system was packaged in. Is this normal?

How do I get ESET to recognize my user name?
Problem; ESET does not recognize my user name to renew my software. I copied the user name from my current ESET software and verified it by submitting my email address, but ESET will not recognize it for me to renew the license for another year. What gives?

Multiple Monitors, Ultrawides, or Both?
Last week we asked what your most important peripheral was, and it got people talking about monitors. Specifically, about ultrawides versus dual-monitor set up. So, what's the way to go? With that sweet, sweet ultrawide display with plenty of room for activities, or the pure utility and ease-of-gaming on the dual-monitor…

Do you aim for high quality visuals or high frame rates?
There's nothing more exciting than building a new rig, then booting up that top-of-the-line game to see "Video Settings Auto-Set for Max." But sometimes, you're stuck with more middle-of-the-road graphics. And what do you do then? Tank the visuals for those buttery 120 FPS or get it looking good and deal with the drops to…

PC Builders: Do you start with the CPU or GPU?
Every build starts somewhere, and I don't think anyone is starting with RAM. So where do you start your build? Do you pick out the graphics card first and work backwards from there, or start with the CPU and build out?

RGB: Single Color or Hybrid?
We all know that if your computer is decked out in red RGB lights, you get 1.21 gigawatts more speed. But is it worth it to sacrifice that pulsing rainbow wave for a single color? Or maybe you want a blue highlight to streak through your all white lights. What do you think: just one color, or as many as possible?

Fancy Laptops or Big Desktops?
The recent release of MSI's Leopard series got me thinkin - My first decent computer was an old Asus G Series laptop. Since then I've built my own desktop, but I do yearn to sit on my couch to game sometimes. So, is a big, RGB fueled desktop really the end-all-be-all, or can you get by with a decent gaming laptop?

How do you choose your PC parts?
You've finally saved up the money to build that dream rig. But now comes the daunting part: choosing components. So how do you do it? Just pick things at random? Try to min/max your build? Or maybe you swear by a brand and fill your case with just that brand?

G164 - 2.5 expansion bay location?
Hi. I’m considering upgrading my g164 storage with the addition of a 2.5 ssd. It lists “(1) 2.5 expansion bay available” in the spec sheet. Where is the expansion bay for this located?

AMD 5000 Series CPUs Advertising False/Misleading Regular Price
Hey Microcenter Peeps, First, I love this store, and not trying to be a jerk, but what on earth are you doing advertising a false/misleading regular price on Ryzen 5000 series CPUs, when we know they're selling at MSRP? A 5900X has never, and will never, be priced at $799 in a MicroCenter store. I'm really hoping this is…

Hello, I recently got a G900 and it had a bright white LED inside it somewhere. This light was not under the control of the Asus Aura program. It has gone off on its own.
