Micro Center - Tustin, California

Mr O.

Legit Disneyland for gamers, and IT proud nerds. Hands down, the best computer store in all of California.

They have anything and everything for building computers, or pre built PCs, Apple devices, laptops, gaming consoles, 3D printers and much more.

Anything you could ever need to run your business in California you can get here. Support this local business by shopping here next time you need any tech. Their staff are super helpful and informative too. Plus they have a build your own station with staff that help you build your PC. And a tech center to help troubleshoot any issues.

Micro Center is the last bastion of techie big box stores. Better than the "best" place to "buy"" things if you need some very specific dongle or cord. Just up the 55 from Newport Beach, so you know we have it good. There just isn't anything better if you need something and can't wait for shipping.

Located on Edinger and Del Amo Avenues with plenty of parking. This is the only full-on computer store that I know of, and I love having Micro Center around. Big selection of all computer parts, software, gaming supplies, electronics, printer ink, etc. My husband is a DIY computer enthusiast, so this is his go-to store. We've also ordered online and simply picked up at the store. They have a 'Build-Your-Own' area and a 'Tech-Bar' for computer support.
Shout out to Baldwin, who assisted us on the floor. He was very attentive and helped us find the right computer parts with such a great attitude. Excellent customer service!
It has always been a great experience here and will definitely return.

After recent renovations, the Micro Center looks more organized, open and grand. There are so many customers and the sales people are very friendly. So many choices for the big TV and it is impressive.

This is the best computer store you can find around today.

Cpu, mobo, ram bundles cannot be beat.

Open box items of all kinds can be had at major discounts.

They also have sales that go lower than other major retailers for new items.

I have come here for many cpu bundles, monitors, gpus and am very happy with the service.

You can reserve items online and they will email you as soon as your order is reserved for easy pick up OR if it's late at night during one of their midnight sales, you'll have to wait til the morning to see if you were able to snag that sale item.

They also offer a credit card where you get another 5% discount just for using the credit card, add that to your sales you get and it's nice. Covers half the sales tax here in CA.

The credit card also have special promotions for 0% interest payment plans 6 months normally. Up to 2 years on promotions. That can be handy if your making a big purchase and don't have the cash on hand. It does not penalize you for paying early and has 0% interest the entire duration. Just make sure you pay it off before the term number of months.

There is two lasts points I'd like to make.

When buying an open box item, note that not all the contents could be with it or it could be defective. As a computer nerd, I am able to tell the difference and can RMA it or return it for a refund. Ordinary people should not buy open-box just to save some money. They should be able to test or have somebody to test the product for them. I also had to find a power cord for a monitor, that was rough but it was at a major discount. Things like that. Just use caution and make sure you can deal with what your buying, it will come with a nice discount.

Lastly I would like to say is do not take the sales boys serious. They are a business so your going to be bombarded with upselling. Do your own research as much as you can, find the items you want here and pick them up. The prices here are very good, but I found employees just trying to sell me something and actually lie to me about a product. I had to return things because of that lie before. I don't ask for opinions anymore here.

All in all they are still providing the best prices on a lot of computer tech.

5 of 5 stars.

When I first discovered this place over frys was shocked by the value and service I got from this place. I never turned back since then, it's over 15 years now. I've been a loyal customer

MicroCenter is amazing for anything tech related. The best part is all the custom PC stuff and the fact they have tons of networking hardware too. There really isn't another place like it, so any region that has a MicroCenter is really lucky.

It was more than what I had ever imagined it would have been. It was my adult toy store and i could have built my rig of my dreams. They had absolutely everything i could have ever imagined to build a great rig. I definitely want to come back and build my own PC there.
