Upgrade path
Hello, I'm currently running an AMD 2600x on an Aorus B450I with an Asus 2080ti and was thinking of upgrading. I was wondering if I should go with a 5800X3D and keep the rest, or if I should do a full upgrade, I was thinking something like this. EDIT I can't post links yet so: AMD 7800X3D Gigabyte B650I Aorus Ultra G.Skill…

What cooler to add to this build?
This is my parts list below. I'm trying to figure out what cooler I should use. I'm only planning on playing games, and do not have any big overclocking plans. I'm hoping to get it all here in Cambridge, and so am not sure if I should do air cooled or AIO for a cooler, especially since I've heard that the Lian Li Galahad…

Re: Coupon Applying
Hello, I recently made an order consisting of the CPU+MOBO+RAM combo as well as a 2TB WD SN850x SSD. I used a $25 off coupon, and I guess the way I am seeing it is that it applied to the SSD specifically. I want to return the SSD now, however, but I still want the $25 off coupon to be applied to the order (CPU+MOBO+RAM…

WinBook Service Manuals
Hi, First off - not sure if this is the best subforum for this post - feel free to move it if it fits better somewhere else. I'm wondering whether or not Micro Center keeps archives of support documentation from "the old days" of WinBook (1993-2008). Content such as drivers, specifications, and user manuals can still be…

poor service at Dallas store
don't depend on or trust technical knowledge of employees or products that are placed on sale at Micro Center. I have been shopping at micro center for over 20 years with my first exposer to the store in Fairfax VA. My experience today 7/16/24 was kinda the last straw. About a year ago purchase all the parts to build my…

Where do keyboards and mice plug in.
This might sound completely stupid but where do wired keyboards plug in? What about a mouse? The Fractal Pop Air case I ordered has two usb on the top. Do they plug into another part on the back? I'm still gathering parts so I havent gotten to the building phase yet.

I recently bought a custom PC from micro center and the case that I had bought was a defect. I then went back and tried to have them replace the case because it was under the 30 day warranty and they still tried to charge me for the labor and the new case. I then went back and tried to ask for compensation for the 6 hours…

Any sales to compete with Prime day or FantasTech Sale?
Does Microcenter plan to have any sales to compete with Amazon's Prime Day and with Newegg's FantasTech Sale? Planning to build PC (around $2,000 in parts) and I would prefer to walk in Microcenter rather than ordering online, but not if it costs an arm and a leg extra compared to online sales coming up.
