Hey everyone, Sean here! Fun stories about what you DIDN'T see on this episode......... 1) We had to reshoot us finding that NZXT PSU because we found it after Raymond missed us finding it, so it lead to some big laughs. 2) After getting the 2tb Inland SSD, one of the awesome reps saw what we had left on our budget and threw out the idea of switching from that i9 bundle to a 7800X3D bundle for $100 more, which we took advantage of. 3) We spent A LOT of time trying to choose a case, about nearly 20 mins. lol 4) The outburst of chuckling after seeing our cashier trying to scan that old Corsair fan. We laughed for a cool 10 mins straight. A massive thank you to @GregSalazar (Let's get Greg to 900k!!!) and the incredible folks at the Charlotte @MicroCenter for making this happen. Was it worth the 3.5 hour drive from eastern NC, YES! Also @MicroCenter, please come to RALEIGH!

Good job Microcenter, thanks for the generosity of being able to do this to the people who got PC upgrades and also Microcenter Gift Cards whilst you were there. That last build was really good, wasn't expecting that platform, I was expecting Intel, but then again the 7800X3D will outperform a 12900K so I'm not surprised. Looking forward to the next one - and it's a shame we don't have Microcenter's in the UK because we really need something like this!

This is definitely my favourite type of content you do Greg. It's upbeat and exciting to see what you and the lucky guys (contestants?) put together. And I think I can speak for mostly everyone watching that it makes those without a Microcenter very jealous. It's also a big win for Microcenter because it shows them they will basically have a goldmine whenever and wherever they put a store. Come on MC, Mesa or Tempe Arizona should be next. NOT Phoenix, and definitely NOT Scottsdale! Mesa or Tempe, because it's more central for everyone.

I missed this video weeks ago when it was posted, but again, a great video in this series. Great build!!! It will serve him well

@annettesurfer Месяц назад

We just bought that 7800X3D combo but it was $499.99 at the MC in Michigan. And the MB is an Asus TUF Gaming B650-E WiFi instead of the Gigabyte in the video. It's a good thing my son isn't a fan of RGB since nothing in that combo has any. I cleared my cache and found a MC pop-up offering a coupon for $15 off $30 or more, but it was for new customers only. This is the first time hearing about the Lian Li 206. I have a white Lian Li 216 and love it. A front mounted magnetic dust filter only cost me $8.99+tax+3.94 shipping at NE but that was back in March 2023. I've had so many Corsair fans where the RGB failed that I've stopped wasting my money on them anymore.

You should definitely do the original Microcenter in Marietta, GA. I know you've been to Duluth, but Marietta is a whole different experience and is definitely my favorite. Also, I love this series... When I worked in retail, I used to love when people would come in to upgrade their computers and we'd get to play with different configurations to meet their budget. It's a lot of fun helping someone get awesome new tech AND maximize their value for money.
