Microcenter custom pc build packing for transport
I plan to have a custom build done at a Microcenter store. Once the build is completed how is it usually returned to the customer. Is the case packed with foam to stop components from moving, gpu/motherboard unplug,etc?
I am wondering if this is something Microcenter does or if the customer can request it? My gpu and cooler(4080 and be quite cooler) are going to be large and I am worried it may move/break during my drive back (really bad road with a lot of pothole that are hard to dodge).

Typically they get packed back into the box, if requested additional packing of that portion of the components can likely be accommodated. Work with your technician they may ask you provide additional packing material if they don't have any readily available.
