Each week we pick one builder to award an exclusive Micro Center tee-shirt. Here’s how you could get your own.PC Build Showcase
Micro Center’s Build of the Week is a fan-favorite reason to check our social’s every Friday. What started out as just a text post on a forum has grown into a full-blown video series, with coverage on just about every social media, including YouTube and TikTok.

To summarize, if you want to be Build of the Week, we’re looking for three main things:
- An accurate parts list - make sure your GPU, case, and everything else is as accurate as possible.
- Good photos - Don’t just submit a close up of your GPU; we want to see your whole PC.
- A good build story - tell us all about how you came to build this PC.
