Closest Microcenter to me is about 4 hours away. I cry myself to sleep every time I see awesome deals at their store. I plan to make a field trip there some day.

Does this mobo come sealed? Cause mine had no seal and the antistatic bag isn't sealed either
There should be a black round asus seal on the flap of the box that opens. My antistatic bag was taped too.

Nope mine didn't. But I look at the box for "peeled" looking marks and don't see any

15 days for cpu/proc unless they started the holiday returns early.
Hmmm. On the combo page it shows 30 days but on the microprocessor only and the mobo only pages it shows 15 days. I wonder if they'll honor the 30 day return? Seems like all the other processor/mobo combos show 30 days too.

poor microcenter, now that crypto is dead i heard their sales are down 30% from 2021!
I'm sure that is true for anyone that sells computer parts for their main business. It isn't a crypto issue, it is an economy issue. I'm starting to get sales emails from companies that haven't done sales in years due to not needing them.

If you click on the learn more next to the "may be returned...." text on the top, it'll show in the fine print the 15 days for procs/boards.

Realistically, you can probably get away with a bit beyond 15 days by doing their chat and if you have a good reason (ie stopped working).

Good deal finally on a 12th Gen i7 combo!
Debate whether to finally upgrade my AM4 setup (3700x). Pretty large jump, but do I really need it?
Just drop in a 5800X3D. It's matching (or beating) all the new processors in games. This system is gimped by the DDR4 memory. Not saying it's a bad deal. The price is good for what it is, but for your case I would either upgrade your AM4 processor or go next gen.

People live near a microcenter should start a business to grab and ship these deals for those that don't.

If you go to your order history page, you will see the "return by" date. Mine was actually 29 days from pickup date.

Thanks. Was hoping someone who purchased already could check their order history. I still need to pick my order up.

Agreed. Mine also shows 30 days. Strange how they're inconsistent, even with their own policies. In years past, by nov 1/2/3rd, the holiday returns kicks in and returnable until 1/31/following year. Not so this year, or not yet.

Not that I plan on returning it if it works.
