I want this to be my first pc build (unfortunately not yet) meant for everything that I do with no lag.
-
Bang for the buck PC with no compromises performance
-
This would be my very first build. A white-themed mid/high end gaming pc with plenty of storage for class files, homework, projects, and of course, games. I've watched a bunched of tech videos on YT so I had some idea of what I was adding. This was fun!
-
I want a no-compromises pc build that can play any demanding game with high fps. If I had the money to get a high pc, these would be the parts I would choose
-
I'm an international student that finally arrived in Los Angeles last month. I wanted to start streaming and I've tried picking parts that would suit my needs! Not too much and not too less, and I believe it will work just perfectly for me! Peace out!
Sincerely,
A future professional no-life twitch streamer

For the past 2 years I have been mowing lawns. After I completed 200 lawns for 10 dollars a mow, I finally have enough to afford the PC and monitor I have wanted to build for a while now. All I need to do now is wait for graphics cards to be in stock but I am starting to see light at the end of the tunnel. I believe the PC I made on the Microcenter pc builder has a good price to performance ratio and the monitor I selected is from a refutable brand and seems like a good deal.

I just needed a decent Gaming PC for playing, recording and streaming Minecraft. I chose these parts because I don’t anything crazy but something that will get the job done. I think this pc is a good practical streaming computer and I may even upgrade it in the future.
-
Budget mid-tower PC with onboard wifi and Bluetooth useful for cramped college dorms. I picked an 8 core Ryzen 5000 series CPU with integrated graphics because of the current GPU shortage. The Ryzen CPU along with the 16GB of ram should be capable of my college needs whether it is coding on Java or hardware designing on Xilinx Vivado to my personal hobbies like occasional video editing or photo editing.
As for gaming, the integrated graphics should be good for lighter gaming titles I play like Minecraft and American Truck Simulator but should be perfectly fine handling some slightly demanding games like Halo MCC at 60FPS. If there is one in stock, I picked an RTX 3060TI as a GPU as it should be capable of older demanding games like Apex Legends and next-gen games like Battlefield 2042 and Halo Infinite.
-
I got my first job over this summer, and I was able to earn enough money to buy the parts for most of my computer, until I realized the astronomical price of graphics cards. Winning this gift card would let me achieve my dream of finally having a PC that not only can handle any game I throw at it and play those with friends, but also allow me to develop my hobby of video editing.

I want build something that can help me doing study, games, and fun stuff with it. I have broken laptop which i am using for 3 years cause I can't afford a pc. So If anyone saw my link I would be so grateful thanks. -
Something simple . need an upgrade from my computer and want to gift my old computer to me little brother
-
I want to build a second machine for my friend. He is struggling to run Red Dead because his gpu only has 2gb of vram, and the game basically requires at least 4gb at 1080p. This build should be fairly future proof too.
-
This high-end build is what I would go with if I were to build my dream PC today. A Ryzen 9 5900X combined with an RTX 3080 and ultra-fast NVME storage can handle anything: gaming, video editing, game development, and even streaming if a capture card is added. And with PCIe 4.0 and two unused RAM slots, there's room to upgrade for years to come.
-
I would like a pc that is good for gaming but is not overkill and it would be nice to use it for school work too. I currently use a older chrome book and can not game on it and this gift card would really help me start making this pc a possibility.
-
So… I’m actually way over budget but this… this right here(link) is my dream pc. I’m a gamer who would like to hopefully one day be a big streamer/YouTuber. If I were to have this pc it would more then help with that but I could also edit and stream with the same one computer as well as help with any other work when it comes to other things outside of gaming.

This isn't for me, My girlfriend is starting college soon so I wanted to gift her a computer that I know will last her a few years down that also is decent for lite gaming when she wants to decompress from all the school stuff.
-
This computer will be my first custom built pc. Its years in the making years of saving and browsing the original build had an Intel CPU but I decided to go with AMD because of their better performance recently and any graphics card is going to have to do I guess with the state of GPU's
-
I just want to build a PC that I can play games and do school work on

https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=c5d07b15-6ecd-4683-8e46-98d727fa0ee7 I think this build for my first pc. It does have some components missing because it’s not near my micro center. I think it’s a bit overkill but I want a pc that will last a long time for me to game. I hope that eventually I save up to get this build.
-
This would be my pc build for when i would leave to college and to hopefully be able to stream and play game with friends.
-
I am in need of a pc that can power streaming games like Call Of Duty Cold War, Valorant, GTA 5 and etc. I will be utilizing the pc for powerful creativity applications like Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and After Effects which I will be using throughout my 3 years in high school and my college years too. Having a powerful full pc that I have listed on my build would help me a lot in my digital arts and photography class and all the other classes too

Currently, I'm running a prebuilt pc from 2018 with:
Intel Core i5-8400
AMD RX580 4GB
GEIL EVO POTENZA 8 GB (Single Ram Kit)
WD Blue 1TB HDD
Apevia 550 Watt PSU non-modular (idk if its even 80+ bronze rated)

My build is a bit "overwhelmed" for this back to school event because it will break everyone's budget and their wallet if they build this. The thing is, I'm also a student preparing to go back to school just as every other students, I'm not have a proper build for myself, all I have is a old school laptop with a i5 6th gen, because it's a school laptop, it pretty much restricted me from playing games. Don't get it wrong, I'm not blaming the school laptop gave me some uncomfortable experiences, it actually help me entertained this whole summer, 1/4 of my day was on it learning new things from YouTube and other programs. I don't do anything much other than run some emulator and record some screen videos to publish on YouTube (if I could), the reason why I want to build such a expensive gaming tower is because I want that "owning a real PC that meets my every needs" come true, another reason that I want to build this PC is because it will last long than building a decent PC and throw it away after running 1-2 years then build another one which could end up is a more expensive result.

This was my first time ever doing this and right now I honestly don't know like with parts are the best, what is the difference, but I do know how put a pc together. This is not the pc I want to build though, I want to start a YouTube channel but I need a pc to do that. The one I want is the Minecraft pc that Austin Evans built. I can't wait to start building it once I get the money. Even if I don't win I think I am going to buy pretty much all of my parts from micro center. So I just want to say thank to micro center for doing this contest. (If you can, could you send me something on how to learn more about pc parts please and thanks.)

I have wanted to do an apu build for a little while.
-
So im an architecture student and my pc right now (core 2 duo 4 gigs of ddr3 ram and a 750ti) doesn't cut it for 3d rendering and modeling so my build is mostly for that while the gpu market is crazy ill hold off on buying a gpu ill wait a year until it calms down. i don't do much gaming and im REALLY happy with my current pc (my standards are "as long as it runs") when it comes to gaming so its all mostly for school and hobby's with 3d printing and such. Thanks so much opportunity and good luck everyone!
-
Dream build but hey, I have a lottery ticket. You never know.
-
https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=5f5eaf6e-57c8-406f-b411-64a01602d8e1This will be my first pc that I would love to use for my upcoming YouTube gaming channel!!!!
-
These were close to the recommended specs for my engineering major that my school provides. Doubt I need a gpu but, I got a powerful psu in case I need one in the future for modeling or something related. Going to reuse my monitor and I already have a new mouse pad.
-
Small, sharp (literally, look at those edges on the case!), and streaming capable.
Have a good one!
