There was a similar, earlier question posted in 2023 (G441 in that instance) with nearly identical description to my own situation. Physical case buttons change fan and internal led colors and cycle lighting effects. No issue there, works fine. Unfortunately there seems to be no button nor software based means by which to…

PowerSpec B943 and Linux: will I have trouble with the cooler? (or anything else?)
I'm considering the PowerSpec B943 (https://www.microcenter.com/product/678547/powerspec-b943-desktop-computer) and I'd run a mainstream Linux distro on it. I've never had a liquid cooler before.

Why can't we get replacement cables for power supplies, if lost or damaged or brought else where?
This actually horrible of the company Power spec which they should warn customers, that god forbid you lose cables you can not contact a manufacturer because when you ask they send you to micro center. Manufactures like Evga and thermal-take instantly get you replacement. EVGA does it for free and thermal-take just makes…

Login issues after BIOS update

G714 Memory Issues
I have a G714 that's a couple years old now, and I've always had BSOD/instability and the restart issues but somehow just discovered this support area tonight.

This is a PowerSpec Questions
I purchased a PowerSpec computer without full disclosure that it was a Microcenter product. Now, I can't add my printer and it is not user friendly for someone who is a basic computer user. I should have been told that I would not get support with this product and that it was a Microcenter product. Who do i complain to?

CPU speed/Intel Extreme Tuning compatibility with G477?
Hi! I just bought a new G477 system with 14900. Of course, the first thing I'm doing is testing CPU speed. I note that under 100% load, task manager shows clock speed of only about 4.6GHZ, whereas it's capable of 6GHZ. Cinebench clocks the system at 2263 singe core, 37048 multi. Firstly, are these numbers expected for this…

If I put in a 7800 XT or 7900 GRE, I think I would have a pretty good machine for 1440p gaming. I'm wondering if one of these cards will fit the mobo/case: ASRock Challenger…
