I have a red devil 6800xt and it crashes to a black screen every other day or so and the drivers need to be reinstalled everytime. Each time it crashes, it takes like 3 attempts in safe mode to be able to install the driver because it crashes when booting up. Sometimes it wont even boot after a crash I did a full restore…
Hi folks. I hope this is in the right place. I purchased a MSI GV62 8rd laptop several years ago, and have been generally happy with everything... except the screen. The thing is washed out to the point of being unpleasant to look at without some major settings tweaking. I'd like to replace the screen with something that…
Hello, I just came home with the Atari Fight Stick and I am not getting any video output from the pi3b. Within the fight stick, the PI simply lights up with a red LED but there's no output through HDMI. I used another sd card with a known good image for the 3b and it confirms that the pi is functioning properly with video…
Recently I feel like my pc has something wrong with it. Some games like Forza 5, Minecraft Windows Edition, Fortnite, GTA, Roblox, and Terraria won’t load it. At first I noticed that Minecraft Windows edition wasn’t loading, so I had to delete and reinstall the game. I then noticed the same thing happened with Forza 5. I…
Hello, I am currently looking for good gaming laptops that will last me a while. I am in grad school and like to play video games but currently only have console games. I would love to get a desktop eventually but due to space, cost, and time I can't go into that yet. That is why I would love some suggestions for a solid…
Hey Microcenter, I've always loved my visits to your stores quite north of me near a buddy that lives in Maryland. I frequent the SouthPoint mall here in South Durham and I always see this old (and long closed as far as I can tell) HHGreg store and think "wow what a nice Microcenter location that could be." I just wanted…
Apologies in advance for the essay. Just finished building my first PC. Watched tons of videos, checked 3 different part compatibility checkers, been planning and slowly acquiring parts for months. Complete the build, go to power on, no display. All my RGBs work on case fans, cooler fan, RAM, GPU. Power button on my case…
This is a build for a customer at the Sharonville location.
Bought an open box one and it's likely messed up. Tried it in my old setup and then upgraded my motherboard, CPU, and power supply, and I'm having the exact same issues. Prior to GPU swap I had no issues. Would like to exchange for another.

Hello Micro Center! I just wanted to ask, if you're planning to expand your business to more locations in the US, could you add a Micro Center store in Charlotte, NC? We North Carolinian losers don't have any locations near us, and I feel like a location would fit in Charlotte so well, due to it being a very popular…
Is there a way I can return a defective item for a replacement without having to return to a store. I live 3 hours from the nearest Micro Center and had purchased a hard drive when I was in KC along with other items. I returned home 3 hours away and found out the drive is bad. What options are there?
Hey guys, I built out a system on cyberpower a few months back (they built it, I picked parts). I tried to do some research as i'm not an expert in this field but I just want to post my specs and see if anyone has recommendations on things I made need to change. I adjusted my fan curve because I was having GPU heating…
I am new to the forum. I wanted opinions on a custom build. However, "you have to be around for a little while longer before you can post links." Anyone know how long that is? I am eager to get building. Thanks.
I picked up a custom build from the Westmont location a few hours ago. After getting home, the PC is not functioning--I repeatedly get a BSOD within about 5 minutes of being in Windows. What are my next steps to get this fixed? I live two hours away from the nearest store (the Westmont store).

Hello. I'm thinking of making a trip to a microcenter from Maine so i can build a pc for my son and I. Many of the bundles are 1 per household. Am i able to purchase a bundle each for my son and I if he's with me? Or am i able to buy 2 different bundles, like say with different prices or processors? Thanks. Just don't want…
Hello, After eight years of using a laptop for gaming, I am hoping to build a gaming PC that can last for just as long. My Alienware laptop from 2015 has been struggling to play newer games lately even on very low settings and I think it is time to retire it and move on. I am looking to play more recently released games…
Hello! I am seeking some opinions on custom build components/options through MicroCenter for a computer very similar to the PowerSpec G472 desktop. While nearly all of the CPU specs, generation, case color/size, price point ($2,500 or less) etc. of the G472 appeal, I was seeking a computer/motherboard that would support an…

After getting home all excited to get my new computer all set up, I powered it up and loved all the colors in the case. As I went through the startup process I installed windows 11 as a free upgrade. After that it all went downhill. As the download finished and the pc restarted it came on with all the lights no longer…

I saw: microcenter.com/product/649272/bigtreetech-skr3-ez-control-board Does it have "resume after power failure?" Can it run standalone? Is it wireless? Can it use just 12V? How many amps or watts does it need? Can it print from .stl files? Does it need thermistors or thermocouples? Is it compatible with my…
