Great store for everything from accessories to custom built hardware. The employees are always friendly and happy to either help or let you do your own thing. I really appreciate the honesty of the folks here, too. Definitely look forward to coming in whenever I need something.

Lots of help from the staff at the San Mateo store around choosing parts that work together well, shout-out to Brendan & Alex for their expertise Competitive pricing and they have plenty of stock, then also can readily sub in available products if there's something not in stock Really good service, 5 stars

Hi there, we have a large selection of computer hardware parts. We stock most of them in our stores, and also have a few online only items. If it turns out that we don't have the specific model you're looking for, we can always special order it.

Do they fix broken monitor screens

Not sure if they repair broken monitor screens but I would highly suggest just buying a brand new monitor with a 3-5 year replacement plan (not warranty, replacement plan!). A new LCD panel for a monitor may land you a good $150 plus labor whereas the latest monitor may land you just a hundred bucks more and you can pick up the peace of mind for another 44-54$ for a good 4 years that includes negligence.

Do you have technicians on staff that can help with Outlook issues?
