With so many deals, it can be hard to know where to start. You could check out our Tech Days Deals Page, or head into your local Micro Center and take a look in person. But if you just want a sampling of what we have on sale, read on for some highlights.
Bambu Lab A1 Mini and P2S 3D Printers: Starting at $209
3D printing has never been easier to get into and, thanks to the small footprint of the Bambu Lab A1 Mini, never easier to fit into your life. Both the A1 Mini and P1 are designed to be easy to set up and, while the P1S offers a bigger build plate for larger builds, the A1 Mini is small enough to fit in a dorm. And if you want to start 3D printing on the right foot, pick up a combo model with the Bambu AMS or AMS Lite for multi-filament printing. AMS or not, you’re going to need some filament, and that, too, is on sale:
Inland Filament Basics PLA, Red, Blue, Green, Gray, White, and Black: $7.99
Whether you’ve just started printing or are an old pro at support trees, the Basics are there for a reason. They’re reliable, easy to prototype with, and, during Tech Days, only $7.99 for some of our most popular colors. If you’re running low, now is the time to resupply.
AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D Granite Ridge AM5 4.70GHz 8-Core Boxed Processor: $399.99
While the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D is an excellent processor by just about any metric and is ready to handle the average user's workload, the ‘X3D’ designation makes it especially potent at gaming. X3D chips feature AMD’s 3D V-Cache technology, boosting the L3 cache by nearly triple that of traditional processors like the Ryzen 7 9700X. The result is greater speeds in CPU-bound processes leading to higher framerates for gaming.
PowerSpec G538 Gaming PC: $1,399.99
We have plenty of computer parts on sale as part of Tech Days, but there’s nothing that beats the simplicity of bringing home a pre-built PC, plugging it in, and getting right to downloading and playing some games. PowersSpec’s G538 is a solid mid-range entry point, with an AMD Ryzen 5 7500X3D, an AMD Radeon RX 9060XT GPU, 16GB of DDR5-6000 RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Whether you’re just getting into gaming or are looking for an easy upgrade, the G538 offers plenty of power without breaking the bank.
Acer Predator X27U 26.5" 2K QHD (2560 x 1440) 240Hz Gaming Monitor: $329.99
The number one mistake we see folks make when building a gaming PC is ignoring the monitor. Even if you have a top-of-the-line rig, if your monitor only supports a 60Hz refresh rate, you’ll only ever actually see 60FPS. A 240Hz monitor, like the Acer Predator X27U, will actually deliver on the competitive advantages -- and aesthetic boosts -- you would expect from an upgrade, just so long as your computer has the juice to support it.
Lian Li Vector V100 RGB Computer Case: $69.99
Whether you’re building a personal AI system* or just a casual gaming rig, the Lian Li Vector is ready to be your next PC case. Featuring glass panels on both the side and front of the case, you’ll be able to show off your build, whatever it’s used for. The Vector also comes with four 120mm RGB fans to help keep your PC cool.
*Be sure to check your graphics card's size!
Raspberry Pi 400: $44.99
The Raspberry Pi 400 is one of the easiest ways to get into home coding and DIY computing. The 400 is a compact keyboard that quietly hides a computer based on the Raspberry Pi 4 inside. When you’re ready to start learning the ins-and-outs of Pi, simply connect it to power and a monitor (maybe a mouse, if you’re feeling fancy) and get to creating.
These deals just scratch the surface of what is on sale for Tech Days. I didn’t even mention the graphics cards, racing rigs, or gaming accessories that are also on sale. To see all of our Tech Days sales online, you can check out our deals page over here, but if you want to really see Tech Days, you’ll have to stop in.
Micro Center Tech Days is on now, but only runs on October 6 and October 7, so hurry into your local Micro Center.
