Hello, I bought an AMD Ryzen 9 7900x & ASUS B650E-F motherboard from Microcenter. Saw that I could redeem the Jedi game on the receipt but had sadly misplaced it. Could you please send me the AMD rewards code electronically? TIA
Hey MC Community! Has anyone figured out the easiest way to turn off the RGB lights in a PowerSpec from the case without using Software?
Written by Jon Martindale What CPU should you buy in 2023? It’s a tricky choice as there are not only multiple generations of processors from AMD and Intel to consider, but they’re more competitive than ever. There are great CPUs for gaming, others that are perfect for creative workloads, and some amazing budget options…
Written by @ronwoodson In a behind-the-scenes interview, I spoke with Erin H, a repair technician in Micro Center's Mayfield Heights service department. Erin shared insights into her daily routine, tips for building and maintaining gaming computers, her most memorable PC build experience, and how she overcomes challenges…
Last year I've bought an RTX 2070 Gpu for my PC build, I have also bought a 2yr protection plan for it and it is still active. I was wondering since I've bought a protection plan for the gpu if I'm able to take it back and to replace it with a different gpu product or upgraded gpu and pay the difference ... Or does there…
Hello there, I recently got the PowerSpec G436 and although I enjoy the case it came in (Lian Li LANCOOL 205) so far, I've come around to start tinkering with it to get the best out of it. Recently I came across the Lian Li 205 Mesh version that seems to be a Microcenter exclusive and thought that the front panel would be…
Thank you for the great service. I came in with a broken computer and within a half hour I was able to buy a new laptop and have the old computer's information transferred. The service tech and sales person were excellent. Within 10mins, Greg was able to assess my hard drive and transferred the data the same day. He stayed…
With the closing of Fry's electronics the only real electronics retailers in Texas are the Apple store and Best Buy. Both are great but do not offer any real D.I.Y., Maker/STEM or electronics parts in the central Austin area. Our options are limited to online shopping, used parts or repair stores. A location in the Central…
After seeing Jayz2Cents' awesome video today about the grand reopening of your store in Tustin, CA, I was wondering if you guys had plans to expand in Austin, Texas? Y'know, there's that huge building on N. Mopac Blvd. where Fry's Electronics used to be before they closed down...that would be the perfect spot for an Austin…
I recently bought a motherboard because of technical issues. After sending it to microcenter they say that it was a Motherboard issue, so i bought a new motherboard an ASUS Tuf Gaming x570 wifi, however when I tried installing it to my pc switching from the old motherboard it still would not resolve the issue. After…

Written by Nick Biederman As more home shops begin to use laser cutters, it's important to remember safety procedures. Like most other tools at our disposal, laser cutters are safe when operated correctly but can be dangerous if misused. Today we'll be addressing material hazards, fires, laser exposure, and other common…

Today marks the launch of the next wave of Ryzen X3D processors, starting with the Ryzen 9 7900X3D and 7950X3D (with the Ryzen 7 7800X3D to follow in April). These processors pack an extra boost for gaming and streaming thanks to AMD 3D…
Was wondering what happens if Microcenter cant find the problem?I've been having random BSODs from high stress gaming, to just browsing the web. I've gone through tons of testing and troubleshooting without luck. Will I still be charged if they dont find out the problem? I've read a lot of reviews about the repair service…
Hello, about a week ago, I made a purchase at the Mayfield Heights store, however just yesterday I received a receipt for a purchase that wasn’t mine. It had my name and last 4 digits of a card number, but the items and total were different than what I bought. There hasn’t been any activity on my cards, but this has…
Written by @Julia_V The arrival of NVIDIA 40 series laptops has been incredibly exciting for me. Knowing the potential of desktop 40-series GPUs, I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of performance mobile 40-series GPUs could bring. The latest MSI Titan GT77HX 17-inch Gaming Laptop is one of the pinnacle examples of mobile…

My complete order history does not show up online. I use my email for every purchase. I have an issue with a Wyze cam that requires a receipt and it's not there. It fact only a couple of the 20+ transactions I've made are listed. How do I get the rest? Thanks!
Many of your desktops above $3000 that have 1TB SSD, 32GB are already outdated by far. Is there anyway we can make a purchase of a Dell, ASUS or PowerSpec desktop and have Microcenter tech modify them with larger SSDs+DDR5 memory there? Of course that will be extra. I'm being forced to make an Amazon purchase of such a…
The prebuilt I purchased came with an off-shoot z490 plus motherboard made by MSI. I accidentally deleted the "mystic lighting" application that was for some reason preinstalled and placed on my desktop screen and now I cant get it back. The Dragon center application is not compatible and says that it is being blocked by…
Hi, I have some fans, a computer case, video card and a PSU that I bought outside of MicroCenter. If I use those parts alongside parts I bought at MicroCenter, can I pay a MicroCenter employee to build it? Or would all the parts have to be from MicroCenter?
The monitor on this page has a 100 x 100 VESA. In the brief description is shows as 200 x 200.
Built a pc with an MPG Z490 gaming edge wifi mobo. Originally with 1TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus. Filled that up so purchased and installed a second 2TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus (all parts both original build and new disc were from Micro Center). Both disks show up as disk drives in the device manager, but the new NVMe is not…
I'm looking to build a PC for video editing & motion graphics...so a lot of Premiere Pro & After Effects. My budget is ~$2,500. I've put together a parts list, but figured I'd share it with the community before I pull the trigger. The forums won't let me post links, so I've attached a PDF instead. Any feedback on my…
Yep, each color is the same flavor
I have two Micro Center accounts. Would it be possible to have them merged into one?
