i mean buy and replacing parts becomes a lot easier when the seller is being helpful. biggest pain with ordering stuff online is replacing them so it makes sense that microcenter is doing good
Seriously. I live in northern California. If I want to go to micro center I’d have to drive down 6.5 hours to Tustin which is the only one on the west coast. Closest after that is Colorado lol
@@chaos9790 I didn't see who won Austin's but the guy in yellow won Jayz. I left while Jay was waiting on a replacement motherboard unfortunately so I missed out on those shenanigans

Now that Fry's is gone there is a hole in many markets that places like Best Buy just dont fill, I wish Micro Center all the best as they are just about the only store for DIY PC and Electronics these days.

I love Jay saying "Yeah i opened this GPU to inspect it and they printed an open box sticker for it" right before "now not putting your pc in a case is cheating" lmao
tbf, Austin kinda ruined the spirit of things by going with an open box gpu and not even using a case. Even though he knew someone would be walking away with it.

Considering the angst currently going on in the Tech area of TH-camrs I am more than happy that Austin and Jay have done what they have to keep people aware that when all said and done make things Fun and that is a winner there is way too much these days from destructive clowns and control freaks making life miserable and you guys have been the perfect antidote to that rubbish
I don't normally comment but thank you Austin you showed me I missed a great deal on 32gb G.Skill ripjaw V :D and thank you so much to micro center for finally coming to Indiana!!
It is a risk 😂 Last time I went to the one near me, I had a list of parts I wanted. Ended up wondering around, and walked out with about twice the amount of parts that I originally planned on....
Fun fact: MicroCenter marks down Clearance items every 30 days unless the current retail price is less than clearance price and you can get it even cheaper.
I like your approach to building a PC. For a few years my 'case' was a piece of plywood with some stand offs screwed into it to hold the motherboard, and a bracket to hold the power supply. The actual case was a square wire basket that I placed over it simply because we had cats, and cats just don't understand what NO means. (Though I did have a cat that taught an orphaned puppy I found to climb and do other cat things.)
I've been going to Micro Center since early 2000's. I've moved to states that don't have it, but when I go back visiting my parents, if I need something, I'll always stop by. I wished they would put a single store in every major city in America.
Jay opening the box for the video card made me laugh hard. Came here after watching Jayz video, and I have to say Jay and Austin have great chemistry and I really enjoyed both videos.
Didn't even know this was even in my home state, just a 45 min drive. Thanks for the vid man!! Definitely goin have to swing by and check them out for sure!!
Would be nice to get somewhere like micro center in the UK. We get screwed for prices and can bever get deals like a $25 1TB SSD. So that would be around £20 but cheapest 1TB SSD here is around £40 and RAM 32GB is closer to £50 ($60) so we just get screwed over here for prices. So as much as I love a video like this I also hate as I know I will never get deals like this or ever have anywhere like this to go to.
same here in eu. but lets be real. 60$ for 32gb is really good price. was double a year or so ago… but yeah. cant beat 25$ for 32gb. and do mind its probably for grand opening, although im not sure. ssd was grand opening price. probably dramless.
i dont like the, "every dollar you didnt spend earns you an extra % of performance." cause I feel like it turned it from a 750 dollar budget to a 500/550 budget build, and thats not the same
Hey (guys it's) Austin! I had to come see your video after watching Jay's side of the story. I wasn't subscribed to you previously, but I've now remedied that problem. Well done on your win! (I still don't want my every-day driver in a cardboard box, but you still won)
Damn, I know I’m a few months late but I wish I would’ve known you were there Austin I would’ve came out I live not to far from there and actually came in the opening week to buy a 3D printer
Can we talk about that power supply airflow though you made a hole for literally just the fan and power cord but no where to brethe the air from for the fan 🤦
Microcenter seems awesome. Fair prices for the fact that it's in-store, the marketing is upright genius. They deserve success. Hope they'll come to Germany at some point in the future.
Seattle needs a micro center since seattle has all the tech companies since there is only best buy and best buy barely has anything in stock and the stock is so limited. The selection of computers at office max/depot is limited like prepaid cell phones at a prepaid cell phone store since the selection is so small. The samsung section at best buy have shrunk drastically, it's like samsung turned into a tiny kiosk inside of a mall, there are more chromebooks than samsung products in the samsung section lol.
Its hard to believe that an electronics store is doing so well that they are opening new stores. Glad that Micro Center found a way to be successful.
Yes its so cool !
I would love a microcenter in my state, closest one is in Minneapolis
It's stupid there's not one in Tennessee at all. Nashville would be great

I never realized it until now but jay looks an absolute unit of a man he stands alongside with Evans.
Jay is like 6'4. He IS an absolute unit of a man. And I'm not sure, but Austin claims to be a little small (we know he has tiny hands).
@@CAJames902 you did my man dirty with that small hands comment lol
allegedly Austin is 5 foot 10@@nathanmerritt1581
To be fair Austin is so tiny lol
5:19 Why does Jay's head look so small compared to a rest of his body!?
I'm thinking is the camera lens but i'm not sure. 😂
“Do you know how to build a computer?” The genuine nature of the question was soooo savage
"I expected Austin to be a little taller."
That was a violation. 😂
Hey man I said what I said 😂
That's a war crime level of a burn. Lmao!

I’d love to see a Donut media and Austin Evans collab. Not sure what they’d do, but it’s be awesome! Mo Powah Baby!
they already did on donut's channel, testing cheap amazon crap or something like that
Watching this after Jay’s video and I have to say, Austin’s cardboard box was actually pretty damn good
Yeah, it was thinking outside the box....
Shouldn't of been allowed. So cringe ha
Shouldn't really have been allowed though

I literally walked in on them filming this. Austin, youre pretty awesome in person. You're definitely welcome back in Indiana!
I swear, the apartment jokes are the best in any Overclock media video
Having a live audience made this video hilarious! We need more of that in future videos for some fun interactions!
Just went there this monday and the price is crazy! I spent 700$ (pre tax) on 12900k + z690 + 32TB HDD + 4TB SSD.
And got a free mug!
😂 "I opened the box to inspect it which made it open box..." 😂🤣😂🤣
12:17 Oh, that burn. I mean, this one 😅
"It's like the apartment all over again" 😂 that had me rolling.
Rip the apartment
I don't normally comment but thank you Austin you showed me I missed a great deal on 32gb G.Skill ripjaw V :D and thank you so much to micro center for finally coming to Indiana!!
This was a fun way to launch a store. I'm afraid to go to Microcenter, I'd empty my bank account. 😅
Same 😅
It is a risk 😂
Last time I went to the one near me, I had a list of parts I wanted.
Ended up wondering around, and walked out with about twice the amount of parts that I originally planned on....
Yeah same thing happened to me, went to MC buying a 3D printer and walked out with a Raspberry pi 4 8GB model on top of that 😂
My only concern is the closest one to me is in NJ....
I'm lucky to leave the store only spending 50$
These two videos are fantastic - and also: An absolute testament to AM4's monstrous value and stayingpower...
The fact that now I know I can open a box in a store and get a discount for opening it. 😂
Man it's been long since I've seen an Austin and Jayztwocents collab. This is gonna be fun

That new Micro Center is about five miles from my home. I've been there already. It's neat! We're thrilled to have it here in Indianapolis.
That was fun! Jay looks HUGE next to Austin :D

Microcenter really needs a location in Las Vegas. I would benefit from the deals and they would benefit from the ever expanding city. Its a win win

Don’t worry Jay, you can just give your system to LTT to test & their data will probably show you as the winner. 😂
Wtf is wrong with them these days
Yes, but then they'll auction it off and blame you for it.

There’s two problems with that. For one Microcenter owns their retail locations (afaik) and won’t lease. Secondly, the crime in Seattle seems crazy.
i loved to see Jay with you!
Austin’s box case looks genius, if only someone would make it out of metal
