My favorite memory was going to the Brentwood store super early for a GPU… only to learn about the raffle system that meant I didn’t have to be there until 9:30… We had a good time though, and I walked out with a 3060!

My most memorable memory of the year 2021 in microcenter was when I walked into the store to see gpu's piled up on the shelves. This such a rare sight because of the big gpu sortage that is still going on  😔. That was my favorite memory of 2021 in a microcenter.

Greenbean

My most memorable moment in microcenter was on the 28 to leave my pc for a diagnostic and I went to look at desktops and stuff and saw a pc display and a 3080 in person and it was the most beautiful thing ever 😍

Komarovsky

My most memorable moment in Micro Center was getting the professional help from the Cambridge store staff to pick out the components I for.my raspberry pi cloud storage build.

My favorite memory of micro center was when I wanted to go and help my dad build his pc and we had a lot of fun looking at the prebuilt and printers when we saw one of the last 3060s in stock and we were ecstatic to say the least now my dad has a killer build thanks to the one trip we went just to see what they had

My 2021 memory of Microcenter would be how the team in the maker department helped me save my 3D printer. I had a bad clog and even after taking the entire thing apart, I couldn't free it.

Infinity2437

My favorite memory was in March of 2021, where I found a 3060Ti and 5600X for a build back when 5000 series was still rare.

ShadowClysm

My favorite memory was when I went to micro center in PA to get my case for the start of my pc build. And looking at all the other cool cases lol.

My favorite memory was going into the new and improved Tustin store. I really liked the bigger floor space and the quickness of the checkout.

twelve_skil

Favorite memory probably had to be when I had the chillest RTX 3060 purchase known to man at the Fairfax location. No crazy lines, no outside camping, just some lucky timing I suppose as I walked in to some reasonably priced graphics cards! Don't know how I would've gotten my hands on one otherwise, that's why I love this place.

Waiting outside overnight once I got home from deployment to get my 3080 and CPU with my friend, brought me back to those midnight release days of COD 🤣 In the end it was worth it because I was able to fulfill a promise I made (to myself but still)

jcocoma58

Favorite memory has to be my first time coming here last week and buying a monitor for the first time so I can try streaming it was like a fat boy in a candy store it was amazing, had some help and got right monitor it’s my first time starting so I need to come back and upgrade in the near future.

CEH61

My favorite memory would be being able to place my order online during this pandemic, then just pop into the Columbus store and having it waiting on me!

GDragon

My favorite memory was building a pc on the fly. My wife had never had a personal desktop before, especially one capable of running current art and game software. I had researched several components but none of the models were in stock when we arrived so with the power of a lot in hand Google-ing and a helpful computer department, I successfully assembled it for my wife, which was the second PC I had ever built, and is still used to this day. 

Eevee

My favorite was coming in there with a budget okay’d by wife and then it turns out we still needed to “talk about it”. It’s been a few months now and she doesn’t seem too keen to have that talk

My favorite memory is probably going to MicroCenter on black friday to pick up parts for my new PC

My favorite micro center memory was scoring a free SSD a while back. New games means more space needed!

Hitman2323

My favorite memory is stopping in to exchange a dead hard drive only to see the GPU case full of RTX 30 series cards! No line, no wait, just an I'll take that one!🎮🎮🎮🎮

JuanOchoa

My favorite moment was getting my first monitor and just buying some extra ram for my brand new pc and I love the way it makes my setup look.

My favorite memory was having Micro Center to help me with hardware recommendations to build my first Gaming PC.  Micro Center had a good package deal for CPU/motherboard & power supply that were cheaper than other retailers.  I ended up with buying most parts from local MicroCenter including my first M2 SSD for this gaming PC.

In November of 2020, I went to wait outside of the Duluth store early in the morning to get a 3080. I had some good conversation with other people in line and on Discord. When it came time to get vouchers, someone further up in line was nice enough to trade me for the EVGA GPU that I wanted.
Later that day, it was memorable to break in the GPU with Fallout 4 which ran very well with some mods.

I think my favorite memory has to be finally scoring a gpu. I walked in to the Tustin store to check out the new remodel and suddenly, one of the guys working put a 3080Ti in the cabinet and my jaw just dropped. All the exhausting searching, finally over! Thanks MC!!

My favorite memory with Microcenter was during the start of the pandemic. I just moved to Chicago and knew absolutely know one and it was impossible to socialize with new people. I was honestly getting kind of sad and didn't have anything to do at my apartment by myself.

When Microcenter opened its Chicago location back, I decided it was time to build a new PC while staying at home all day. When I went it, it was like being a kid at the candy store. My passion for computers got reignited again and it was very fun actually talking to employees and other customers about parts.

I ended finishing my build, installed Valorant, and joined a few Discord servers to meet gamers to play with. Without this PC, I don't know how I would have lasted alone in my apartment. Thanks to Microcenter providing great prices and a great selection of parts, I was able to enjoy life again!

My favorite memory always changes - every time I visit, it's my favorite visit. Parts, galore! It's practically heaven.

My favorite memory was going towards opening week at the Tustin Microcenter. Viewing the new layout with all the components on display and the GPUs in stock seemed miraculous.

MalunaKai

My favorite memory was getting a whole gaming keyboard and mouse set for free at their grand reopening.  I kept requesting keyboards at work, but all of them were hurting my hand.   I took this to work and love how I can change the colors.   I can type so much faster now!  Thank you!

Fredacus

Stopping in Microcenter for a computer and learning how much I could save building one on my own. I loved learning and my friend got and incredible gift out of it. Much thanks to the genius Microcenter employees!

My Favorite memories at micro center in 2021 was building my 1st ever pc a week after my birthday, but my best memory has to be when I took my little brother to go build his first ever computer and the second we walked through the doors his eyes blew up! The excitement and joy he had walking in and out of micro center was just so amazing to see him so happy
