No number to call and ask if your laptop is ready for pickup and when you text or email they will lie and say it is ready when it's not.

Actually unbeatable prices. No shipping wait. Order online, pickup in store or just walk in. I hope this place stays open forever. I've built multiple PCs using parts from this store. 4 stars instead of 5 because customer service can be hit or miss. There are people here who are the best customer service people I've ever encountered. There are also people here who should probably know to tell the customer that the thermal paste is next to the register instead of sending them off to the BYO department.

Jose at checkout and Wade in BYOPC were excellent. They were very knowledgable and made things simple and easy. I can't appreciate them enough, Alex their manager was also helpful. Thank you!!

Questions & Answers

Is there a phone number to call the store??

Julian Duran | Oct 10, 2021
Gwynbleidd | Oct 10, 2021

They removed the number due to the influx of calls for GPUs They were not able to address any calls in a reasonable amount of time from what I was told. Overall they want you to just show up or check the website for stock.

Looking for range entenders for my Comcast business router. What are some recommendation? Should I be looking for Mesh products? In a quad level residence with users on all 4 levels.

Andrea Chapman | Oct 10, 2021
Dan Murphy | Oct 10, 2021

Ideally, you should try to wire up your devices with patch cables as much as possible. Mesh devices are only really useful if you are able to hard-wire the access points to get the full benefit. If you want something easy to configure, get yourself either a Nest Mesh system, Orbi, or AmpliFi. If you're willing to put some time into your project, UniFi is an amazing system for network noobs and pro-sumers. Get some UniFi access points and a UDM or USG as your router, you can have a lot of fun with networking!

I brought my computer in to get fixed two weeks ago and they said it would take 1-3 weeks, is there any way I would be able to check on the progress or when they think it’ll be done?

Quinn Voetberg | Oct 10, 2020
Cyberoptic Gunner | Jan 13, 2022

I’m in the same boat, I dropped my computer off for repair and it’s been two weeks with no update from them and I don’t want to drive the 45+ minutes just for them to tell me it needs another week… really wish they’d add the phone number back

How often are you restocking 3080s and how fast are they gone when you open up in the morning? My only options are microcenter, best buy, and newegg shuffle.

Justin winkler | Nov 14, 2021
Hunter Priesol | Nov 14, 2021

I was just there on Friday and I was talking to the staff and they get a random number of GPUs on three days of the week and usually they were sold out within the first 30 minutes. There is a place to sign up to get in line for them but is random in order to deal with demand.

Nico Carranza | Oct 10, 2021

yes. will recycle pretty much any electronics with the exception of old tube TVs and monitors

Why is the 3080ti at 1,999$ at this micro center? Isn't the msrp for the 3080 1200? Why are the selling it here for like 800 dollars more? Who authorized to have it go that high did nvidia told micro center to raise prices or they did it themselves?

Λ V I R A | Oct 10, 2021
Dark Knight | Oct 10, 2021

That is the msrp for the founders edition and good luck finding one at msrp. Those cards that are made by 3rd parties can set their own prices. They range from $1400 and up. Supply and demand plus the stupid miners caused the prices to rise even higher. Having said that Microcenter just sells it at whatever those companies charges for it. I got an open box Aorus Master 3080ti for $1439 while the retail was I think $1499.

I would say the Westmont store is very much open for business. I would go at off peak hours. Just upgraded to a new refurb'd i7 notebook and software 6-12. Good in-store promotion on Microsoft 365 office + eset virus protection. Lorenzo in the laptop department was super helpful. Very happy with purchase.

Is in store shopping still available?

Jay Fenn | Oct 10, 2020
Charlie Tuna | Oct 10, 2020

Depends how busy they are. If you go on a weekend, you'd probably have to sign up through a webpage, during the week it's usually just via the customer counter person at the door, usually a 5-15 minute wait. As per state regulations, as mentioned above, a mask is required, and also as mentioned, no cash sales. Also, may I recommend you do your homework about the item you are looking for, many items haven't been in stock recently, and my experience has been that the employees aren't familiar with what I'm there for. Good luck, and stay well

Do you carry Range Extenders and what do they look like

John Donofrio | Oct 10, 2020
Alan Dursun | Oct 10, 2020

Yeah, they have them. They come in different forms, but I think the most common form plugs into a wall outlet. They kinda look like a plug in air freshener in that sense.

I am looking to build a budget starter gaming PC. Is there any form of in store assistance or do I need to get a parts list beforehand.

Cosmic Wolf | Oct 10, 2020
Rad Ronski (TheRadRonski) | Oct 10, 2020

Get a list of the parts you want, you can go in to ask questions and make sure they are compatible. Also make sure that they will fit inside your case. Once youve done that, wait for a sale like cyber week, you will save a lot of monday and get much better parts for the price.

This question is for the owners or service/sales people at Micro Center. I want to come in and discuss the purchase of an all-in one desktop for my home. Can you also assist with installation?

Susan Snyder-Minckley | Oct 11, 2019
Michael Foster | Oct 11, 2019

If you live near Chicago in the River North area you're going to be in for the surprise of your life 6 way intersections, Bicycles, Scooters, cars Parking and opening their doors into traffic. That's why I go to the Micro Center store in Westmont Illinois. Feel free to use the Google Assistant and Google Maps and you'll get there Safely. I suggest you download the gboard keyboard and use it to your advantage. 😉

My son just but a Wacom 22ux. He can't get it to work on his laptop. He gets a "no signal, go to sleep" prompt when he turns it on. Can you help?

James Maas | Oct 11, 2019
Juppy | Oct 11, 2019

I believe the best option is to either look through the manual to see if you're connecting it correctly. If that doesn't work look for a tutorial on youtube. If you cant figure it out with that, I suggest you go in to microcenter to see if they can help or even contact Wacom themselves.

Dewitt Jackson | Oct 11, 2019
Ved Vyas | Oct 11, 2019

I don't really use apple, but I would assume that you have to redeem the code somewhere on the app. Edit: I searched for it on Google and found the following result: 1. Open the app store on your iPhone 2. Scroll down to the bottom where it says "redeem" Tap "use camera" to scan the membership or punch in the code manually
