No help with purchase
I'm new to building pcs and saw a great bundle on cyber Monday! I got it, brought it home, and waited for the rest of my parts. They finally come, and I spend 10+ building it. When finally done, I can't even get a splash screen, and then proceed to check everything, all good, come to find out, my motherboard and cpu aren't compatible! And nobody from microcenter seems to care about it.
