Micro Center

I have worked in IT for over 20 years, and Micro Center is one of my main sources for AV equipment, computer parts and accessories, and home entertainment. The staff is what sets it apart from other stores— friendly, knowledgeable, mature. I highly recommend you subscribe to their deals newsletter and let an in-store shopping experience seal the deal for you.

I was going to order my parts from Amazon, but I wanted to see if Microcenter had all the parts I needed. They absolutely have everything! They offer a huge variety of parts and components at great deals and competitive pricing. When I asked a Rep by the name Rufo B, if they had an Rtx 4090 in stock, he gladly showed me all the stock they had on a monitor. Later, he asked if I was building a new gaming pc and replied to him that yes, I was. Rufo B assisted me in selecting all my parts needed to build a new next gen pc. His knowledge and expertise of different components from the CPU and motherboards to memory sticks are remarkable. He even recommended me the latest AMD cpu instead of the Intel i9 that i was going for. The different graphs in performance he showed had huge differences in power, and fps were what made me go with his judgment. He went above and beyond, even personally gathering all my parts for me to have a seamless checkout at the register, I appreciated his actions. When I got home, I got straight to building my beauty of a gaming pc, and the end results were perfection. If you need parts to build a new gaming pc, I definitely recommend this local Microcenter.

I am disappointed by this Micro Center. My laptop's charging port was damaged. I went in mentioning that I heard arcing, and smelled burning when I plugged in the laptop. Brought it in to get a diagnosis, and see if I could get it repaired. I was told that there was no problem with the laptop outside of driver issues. When I looked up my laptop online, it was immediately clear that the middle pin had broken off. This Micro Center is dangerous. If I had taken them at their word, I would have plugged in a fire hazard. 2 stars because I've shopped here before, and if you have the knowledge, it's fine. But if you are not technically savvy, and are relying on them to assist, please ask for a second opinion. For reference, one photo is my laptop charging port, and the other is how it's supposed to look. That is a computer they said hardware wise was fine.

The experience here is annoying as hell. I'm not a fan of floor staff buzzing around me in order to get credit by putting their staff barcode sticker thing on what I came to buy. Let me do some window shopping before I grab what I came to buy. I'll come to you when and if I need assistance. Stop telling your cashiers to say "I need a phone number" when a customer says "no, I'm not giving my phone number". Every time I come here I gotta say "make one up". I don't need my purchases tracked without any benefit to me nor do I want my contacts on a database that'll eventually leak and I definitely don't want marketing texts to suddenly appear once/if the store gets desperate. All of this annoying customer experience stuff is clearly some out of touch corporate and/or local manager nonsense so I don't even blame the staff the annoyances. Though, I'm sure the staff will get the blame for losing customers to stores with less annoying experiences. I'm sticking to Best Buy and Amazon from now on. Thanks for the A/V equipment over the years.

I have to grab a rp02w there and it works. They have best technical support. Although recommended to check the online price from Amazon first then see the price. Because they are selling product with higher price. But if you wanna get something fast and reliable, it is the right place to visit.
