Does Micro Center Replace Macbook Batteries?
I have a 2015 Macbook Pro laptop and it is reaching its charging limit. I've been looking for a place that can replace the battery since I am a bit afraid to do it myself. This laptop has contained my life's work, so I would rather pay for it be in good hands in replacing the batteries.

Ensuring out-of-the-box compatibility between motherboard and 7800X3D?
Is there a way to ensure that the motherboard we buy is compatible out of the box with the 7800X3D? This is for my nephew who is not hugely computer savvy, and I don't know if he'll be up for flashing the BIOS (particularly without another working AM5 CPU at hand).

Did I get a broken pc? Reaching out for a solution after no help from In-Store.
Hello. For context, I purchased a POWERSPEC G470 in September. In December I had to bring it, because of two very loud noises. I deduced it was coming from the CPU and the Radiator at the top of the PC. They were distinctly two different noises. One was a rattle while the other sounded like a fan grazing against something.…

help with motherboards - am5
I want to build a super fast computer that has a ton of disk space. I'm zeroing in on 7950X3D for the cpu. Since "pcie 5 nvme ssd" is so much faster than anything else, I want my os to run on it. I was thinking 2tb for the "c" drive would be good. If I could find a motherboard that has four pcie5 nvme slots, I could use…

I am really mad at what I was sold.
I purchased a Lenovo laptop last year. When I spoke to the sales rep, I told him I had 2 requirements. The memory MUST be upgradeable to at least 32GB, 64GB preferable. The processor needed to be at least an 8 core. I also told the sales rep that it would be nice if the laptop was a 2 in 1 as well. We looked at 2-3…

First PC Build Ever
Hi I've been researching parts for a little over a year now, wishfully hoping about building a custom PC in the near future.

PowerSpec and Slow Hard Drives
I purchased an open box PowerSpec in March of 2023.(Model G711 Build 7501). As soon as I added four external hard drives I noticed that they take anywhere from 10-30 seconds to open. Sometimes they open right away. I figured they might open as they should if I made them internal hard drives (SATA). So I purchased SATA…
