Recently picked up an Lian Li O11D Mini marked Open Box Complete condition. Everything looked pretty good otherwise but I noticed some hardware missing, notably the MB standoffs and screws. A few of the magnetic dust covers were missing as well. Is there a recommended course of action? I'd rather not return.
Hi all, got myself a G906 last week to replace my old system that unfortunately died on me, and I love it for the most part, looks good, plays games great, however I'm worried I might have a quasi-lemon on my hands in regards to the ethernet and sound components of the motherboard. For the ethernet, in the event that…
Looking to have this PC for about 5 years without needing many upgrades Mainly concerned about the SSD being compatible since it would only show up once I searched it Are there any bottlenecks, cooling issues , or incompatible parts I'm still unsure even with the compatibility filter on and checking myself Went for 4080…
I am interested in learning blender and unity3D. I am interested in making my own 3D videogames and some short to medium length 3D animated films. I just want to do it as a hobby, not interested in doing it professionally. I am okay with sacrificing making these films with simpler non-photo realistic 3d models and…
My Canon came with simplified free version of Corel VideoStudio, which frankly I find wretched. What is everyone using to edit video? I don't mind paying one time but I refuse to get sucked into Adobe's subscription nightmare. I mainly just need to trim out excess startup time and maybe trailing time and also the camera…

Hi, I picked up a gaming laptop and mouse this past weekend, and now I see there has been a Gaming Days Sale that would give 10% off. Does your price adjustment policy apply to sales like this, or just permanent price drops? Thanks!

The Des Moines, IA metro sits directly between these two locations via the I35 corridor; which stretches from Minnesota to Texas. The Des Moines metro…

Any help appreciated, not tech savvy…even though I watched videos and tried me best: Aren’t the fans suppose to be even to the…
Hi all, first caveat I have never built a PC before and just did so for the first time so I am still learning about how things work, so if I say anything wrong please forgive me. I did build it with a friend who has done it many times before so I am not too worried that I did something drastically wrong. The issue I am…
I'm new to building PC's, Mac guy here but I want to learn. I'm aiming for a machine to work in Unreal Engine and for editing. Reliability, speed and a reasonably quiet machine is more important than price, I can go up to $5500. I put this together. I'm especially curious about what RAM and SSD drives I should get.…
Hey, so I think my account on Microcenter's main website is a bit buggy, and I'd like to just make a new account, but I can't find anything that allows me to do that. I followed that "my.eset.com" guide, but "my.eset.com" says they don't have my email registered, so I can't do anything. Can someone help me please?
Hello I wanted to ask if anyone has had the same issues with the G712, I am getting a hardware error with a logged live kerner event 141 only while gaming. I already took it back to microcenter (still under warranty) but the technician said he couldn't find anything (not even the event log with 20+ errors logged) they just…
The computer is under a year old. It mostly has these crashes on more demanding games like Call of Duty, and other AAA releases. I've fully reinstalled and updated the video drivers, my computer is updated in every format I can think of. I've ran memory checks and they came back clean.
Greetings, Yesterday I purchased a 4070 ti and opted to get the receipt emailed to me. I have never received the email for the receipt. I tried going through the steps to get the email resent to me through my Micro Center account but the receipts are still not coming to my email. This worries me because I assume the free…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MasPar Mine is a prototype of this, as it actually has vents on the top and a lid over them. So I've mounted two car radiator fans under the top of it to be used as exhaust (only ones thin enough to fit between that and the cage for the daughterbaords, and I had to cut the housing a bit…
Has anyone checked out any of the Chat AIs like Chat GPT? They seem pretty interesting. It's amazing what computers can do! I've heard people use them to write work emails, make character sheets for Table top games, make Decks for TCGs and make estimations on prices, and put together build lists. Of course it can also have…

Hi! I've been building pretty darn good computers for decades for myself and friends. I'm planning a new top shelf build for myself but Microcenter doesn't seem to carry many of the parts I'm interested in. I'd like to do my part to help Microcenter continue to grow and thrive in the Midwest region. If I can get an exact…

Written by @Julia_V I own two separate PCs that perform separate tasks at home - one for everyday use, and one for a media center “TV” computer. While my main machine is equipped with an RTX 3080 and a Ryzen 9 5900x, I actually want to talk a little bit about my media center PC instead. This is my current media center…
