Buying Computer Parts @ MicroCenter

[TimiTheGreatful]

So I finally saved up ~$1200 to build my gaming PC and to my surprise microcenter has all of my parts..... kinda. Most of my parts are high quality, really common, and in high demand so there is a limited supply. My question is in what order should I buy my parts? Wait for all of them to be in stock? Buy some now and wait for some to get back into stock? I want to buy some maybe a bit after Black Friday and before New Years. Do items restock fast? I really don't want to buy parts online.

Here are my parts: pcpartpicker.com/user/TimiTheGreatful/saved/DzmD4D

If your parts are not in stock, look for alternative components. If you cannot find suitable replacement parts, look for other brick and mortar stores or put aside your dislike and purchase online. Parts may or may not come back in stock. That's mostly up to the manufacturer.

In my experience an exact part won't come back in stock very often, typically they only run out when offering a huge sale on it or it's discontinued. Also, their online store doesn't always match up with what's in the retail location (as with any reatailer).

You want to buy all of your parts as close together as possible, because you need all of them to test the complete system and make sure it works. And you want to do that while all of your parts are still within the return period.
