I had a problem with my NUC switch which was wobbly and I could not turn on my PC reliably. I contacted a few repairers in CBD before Tecs and no one seemed to be interested in prompt repairs. But Tecs was different. Alim offered to inspect my PC immediately. I went there yesterday about half an hour before the store closing time. Alim politely asked for my permission to open the case. A few minutes later, he came out to tell me that the a plastic part behind the turn-on switch was broken. They could repair it but at a high labour cost; alternatively he suggest to take away that plastic part and use a small piece to reach the switch to turn the machine on. He even gave me a magic pen (which says 'Some are PC, we are gaming) to do the job. He did not charge me a cent for doing all these. I have found Tecs to be very friendly, professional and practical in approaching the technical issues. They are honest and kind. I have no hesitation to recommend this business to anyone who wants to have their PC repaired or replaced. It is cold in Melbourne now but it is warm in Tecs!

Handy having a small and convenient PC shop like this one around. While waiting a week for a PSU to arrive I tried to get my system up and running using an old PSU. I needed a dual molex to PCIE adapter for the GPU. Props to these guys for having them in stock. Listed at a whopping $20 but they discounted it to a bit more reasonable $15 ($6-8 ebay/amazon but takes time). Unfortunately this setup didn't work for me (likely the PSU rather than their adapter). I came back the next day and they were kind enough to give me a full refund. Also, while browsing their GPUs and not overly impressed with their pricing, the owner/manager told me the listed price is outdated as they drop their prices as soon as the distributors drop the wholesale price. I don't know if the larger retailers do this or if there's a lag but I"d definitely look to support smaller locals showing good business practices like this.

TECs is undoublty THE place to visit if you are experiencing any hardship with your devices. Harry and Mostafa are not only extremely knowlegable technicians that are highly-trained in their fields, but also have hearts of gold and will go above and beyond in solving any difficulties caused by technological issues. They care deeply about the work they do and are highly dependable and respectable people. I have personally experienced a lot difficulties due to my laptop breaking down and they have gone out of their way to resolve and mitigate these issues. I cannot thank them enough for the work they have done and I have never been so deeply impressed by the passion and care they have demonstrated over the brief course I have known them. If I ever experience any technical difficulties or simply want to purchase any electronic devices I know where to visit from now on. Thank you guys so much!!

  • R Blair

I have a 10 year old Samsung laptop that was running out of space on the C: drive. (I know I should get a new laptop but I’m comfortable with my current laptop and it suits my laptop requirements right now.) Anyway, I brought my laptop into Tecs and confirmed an a memory upgrade was possible. A new C: drive with one terabyte of memory was special ordered for me. Within 24 hours from my initial contact with Tecs, my computer was ready for pickup with more than enough memory for my needs for years to come. For the actual repair, i worked with Sammy. Sammy thoroughly communicated to me immediately after the new hard drive was received and gave me a phone call shortly before my laptop was ready for pickup. Prices were reasonable. I was very pleasantly surprised

  • J K

Purchased a laptop from here during my university. At that time, Mick was really helpful and provided assistance with order. I remember getting great service including product shipping from Melbourne to ACT. So after nearly 10 years when I decided to upgrade my laptop, Tecs was the first place I contacted. It was very nice to know that Mick was still there. Mick followed up with the stock enquiry, questions regarding products. Mostafa was another person who provided excellent service when Mick was not around! They even shipped the product for overnight delivery which was a nice surprise. It was really great experience to purchase another device from here, I would consider Tecs for any computer related purchases.

  • Ira Carew

Came in late in the afternoon looking for very specific parts (which I had already pre-determined) as I was going to buy them online, but wanted to see if I could get them in person. Expectedly they didn't have them, this wasn't an issue as I didn't expect anyone to have these parts in stock. But the staff member was incredibly friendly, coming out from behind the counter to hunt around with me, helping with questions and deliberating over parts choices, while sharing personal anecdotes, made me feel like they were more personable and approachable. (Cant remember who this was, a tall young guy with short, light coloured hair, give him a pat on the back)

  • Dave Coleman

I was blown away by the quality of care and support from the Tecs staff. Literally every staff member handled my queries (and there were many queries ha) earnestly and promptly. I had a lot of questions about building a PC, and each one was answered, and more information and recommendations given on top of that. After the PC was purchased, shipped, and received, I was assured by the technical staff that I was encouraged to ask questions, get in touch any time, and engage them for support as I needed it. I am grateful to Mick, Alin, Mustafa, Connor, Harry and the rest of the team, and I trust I have found my go-to PC shop from now on. 10/10 recommend.

  • Runze Gao

I am very pleased with the experience here for the last few days. Mostafa especially so patient with me spending time researching, answering questions in person and via phone calls, helping me test and set up the new pc, then landing a great deal at a fair price at the end that is just amazing and I'm so appreciative towards him and the store. This means a lot for a first-timer owning a pc and setting one up with no experience. Mostafa and staff at Tecs guided me all the way and ensured everything was in perfect condition before I bring it home. Definitely will do the best I can to help spread the positive word and introduce more people towards Tecs.

  • Cody Whelan

My mum ordered (for me) an Infinity O5-4R7G5-888 laptop on Tecs' online store, the next day she got a call from the shop asking if we were going to be home for it to be delivered later that day, when she confirmed we would, the person on the phone (I think his name was Mick) said that he'll see if he could get someone to deliver it to us before 5:30pm, otherwise it would arrive the following day. He actually delivered it personally the same day he called & I met with him outside the front of my house and recieved the laptop. Very good service, & the laptop was exactly as advertised on their online store, and so far it's working brilliantly.

  • Farrel Andrians

Came at the beginning of the week to repair my computer as I had problems booting up. Mostafa was extremely professional and friendly. He and the team went above and beyond. Not only did they repair my PC (motherboard replacement), they took it a step further and repaired my fan positioning, took out uneeded brackets, secured my loose SSDs, gave me new screws for the panels, and gave a thing a good clean. They calledme everyday to update me, and even fixed a issue regarding USB recognition which i wasn't even aware of. A massive thanks to Mostafa and the team!

  • iccarus 1975

They must be good they don't need business, went in to enquire about a computer repair. One person serving, so I waited and just watched the other employee playing on their phone. Great service if you're willing to wait for the one employee to help, I assume he's good as it looks like he's doing the majority of the work. But you'll get frustrated just waiting and watching the other guy not care that you're there, I left without even so much as a "hello" or a "be with you shortly"

  • Ben Admon

I wanted to personally thank Mick from Tecs for being absolutely incredible. I ordered my PC and said I wanted it today. Within 2.5 hours, the pc was at my house delivered. I always use Tecs for my PC needs. They sell the best computers for the best price, and the service is incredible. I even got a follow up call to ensure I received the product. Thank you so much Mick and the team at Tecs, wrote this on my brand new PC, thanks again, Ben

  • Harry Dempsey

I had an excellent experience with Tecs. I was in a rush to find anti-static bags for shipping microcontroller devices interstate. Nowhere in Melbourne had them. But they pulled together what they had and I bought it for a much discounted price. They were a lifesaver in my time-limited situation. Not only that, their employees are fast, kind and welcoming. I had a warm first experience with them and I highly recommend them to anyone else.

  • Laszlo Olasz

I cannot speak highly enough of these guys, I'm here in hospital and I needed a laptop ASAP, I rang them and asked if it could be delivered to the hospital the same day and they couldn't get a courier to do it so the big boss man himself came and delivered it to me himself, now that is what you call customer service, going above and beyond for a customer, thank you so much to the the whole team for making it happen.

  • Martin Wurt

I took my nephew who is visiting from Gippsland into Tecs today. He was really impressed with the store and then worked up the courage to ask if they had any old parts that they didn’t need. Frank their tech guy went out of his way and put together a very generous box of parts that will help him with his PC build. Such a friendly group of staff that really made my nephews day! Highly recommend this store.

  • Jake Peters

Friendly, helpful, knowledgeable staff that make your shopping experience well worth it. They are flexible, adaptable and do not practice a hard sell. The showroom is lovely. It's bright and spacious with lots of good gear on display that you can get hands on with. Totally different, and much better, experience than I've had at any other PC retailer in Melbourne. Keep up the good work guys!

  • Terrible Taste

The salesmen are very helpful and apparently professional in what they do. I am a university student who has to perform a lot of work that involves using softwares that require a laptop to be efficient. Last year when my previous laptop broke down Mostofo helped me a lot in providing official evidence for special consideration for my assignments. It was such a lifesaver.

  • Oliver Maiolo

Great service, competitive pricing and quick turnaround! I began the process of ordering a custom PC on Wednesday evening, and by Friday afternoon I've got it on my desk ready to go. Staff are exceptional; welcoming, kind and very helpful. The computer I purchased through Tecs came to around 20% cheaper than other custom builders in Melbourne. Would definitely recommend!

  • Pam Rycroft

After a frustrating experience trying to diagnose and find a part for my computer, while relying on it for some fairly urgent work, Mostafa and Harry went 'above and beyond' to sort it out for me, source the part, and fix what needed to be fixed internally in record time. They were friendly and responsive. I was absolutely delighted with their service. Thank you Tecs!!

  • Xavier C.

It was my fault NOT knowing an external graphics card won’t work on a laptop (to boost its graphics output), but they allowed me to get it 90% refunded with a charge of 10% restocking fee (for sending it back). Honestly I am satisfied with this solution, 10% is a reasonable price to pay for my lack of basics. As your customer for once, I appreciate the care, regards.

  • Jessie Ng

Helpful staff here who helped me with upgrading some parts of my laptop. My laptop was older so we weren't sure if the parts in store would work, but they reassured me we could try it out and I only needed to pay if the upgrade succeeded. My friend also brought in their laptop with one port that was a bit winky, and they agreed to help fix it up at no extra cost.

  • CEbbinghaus

I rarely have high praise to give but this store is the exception. Absolutely AMAZING customer service with a level of passion I haven't been able to find anywhere else. Harry was Imensely helpful in my quest to get a spare motherboard & CPU back into a working system & dealt with a very difficult customer in the utmost professional way. 10/10 I highly reccomend.

  • luke huggins

Dealt with Mick, absolutely some of the best customer service around when it comes to tech stores. Purchased the 3090 Ti Suprim X, they had some of the most competitive prices and were able to source me one in less than 24 hours. Not the first time I've bought a high end component from them and it won't be the last after the experiences I've had with them.

  • Giant Swan

Spent an afternoon hunting down a new power supply for an overly specific monitor, the guys at tecs were not only super patient with what info I just walked in with, but they also took the time to troubleshoot and find the right alternative for me when the first option didn't work out. Instantly my go-to spot for anything my business will need now. Stoked

  • John David Eje

Thank you so much to Mostafa and the team at TECS for taking care of me each step of the way in getting my PC set-up done quickly, efficiently and with the highest quality of parts for this build. Highly recommend their top notch customer service for anyone looking to build a PC or need any IT goods. These guys are amazing! 5-Stars was an easy one here!

  • Peter Murphy

Great staff, friendly and knowledgeable. They helped us spec our first build that used components from an old desktop. Honest and supportive - didn't try to oversell us anything. Very nice to my son who loved going to the store. Same day repair when we bent a motherboard pin. This will be our first port of call for all gaming PC needs in the future!

  • Alexander Kozlov

Got an MSI gaming laptop from Tecs a year ago for a decent price. The laptop battery was draining far too quickly, so I returned it to take a look at it. They replaced the battery in a very reasonable amount of time, technician called me personally the same day it arrived to arrange a up pickup. Overall, nice business, highly recommend.

  • Nobody Mr.

I had a very good experience with this store. The monitor I purchased here three years ago was damaged at the time when the warranty just expired, but with the help of Tecs I successfully got it repaired. Mostafa is a very enthusiastic and helpful person, he is making a great effort to assist me. Outstanding customer service.

  • Sayuru Samarasinghe

I have purchases a custom built gamin PC from them last week and I must say that their service is top notch. Took only 4 days to complete assembly even during this covid crisis. They are really attentive to your requirements and quite responsive as well. I did a market analysis before purchase, and Tecs was the best option.

  • Phú Vũ Duy

100% in love with the services, it's flexible and quick. I had my laptop in an urgency of hard drive replacement and got it back fixed nicely in maximum 2 hours - right after the lunchtime. The best computer store so far for me. I would recommend to everyone even if you are travellers, temporary visitors.

  • Clare Peels

I rang on Monday to talk about getting a computer and was given the best advise out. I ordered the computer online that day. And two days later the computer arrived by courier talk about fast service. If you are looking for a computer give this store a ring or go and see them, you won’t be disappointed.

  • Sean Howat

Extremely good computer repair store, I needed help converting my internal hard drive into an external one, and the customer service was excellent and provided me with what I needed. I am very thankful for their help and look forward to coming back if I need any more computer assistance.

  • Tina Callea

We purchased a PC & monitor for our son, its was customised exactly how we wanted it. He absolutely loves it… Great to speak to staff that knows what they are talking about as we went to so many places. Thank you for the amazing service! Will Recommend this place to everyone.

  • John Setyaki

The staff is very friendly and honest about their inventory, i was deciding between 2 monitors and the staff just straightly tell me that one of it is an old stock and another one is a newer model, he tell me that i should get the newer model. The staff here is trustworthy.

  • Kirralea Walkerden

The team at TECS are amazing! I was interstate for work in Melbourne and left my laptop cord at home, they went over and above to get me back up and running with a new cord. Highly recommend! Service, product and price all fantastic. Will definitely use these guys again!

  • 유민호

M.Y. I ordered Custom PCs from here few days ago. I highly recommend this shop. Fast building PC, next day delivery from Melbourne to Sydney by AUS Post Express and what I like most is great customer service. Thank you again for your service, I really appreciated.

  • Blair Lovell

These blokes are the best, first time I've been here and can say the service is exceptional. They remember your name, show they care any chance possible and are prompt with any service required for an extra mile. Its not often you get quality and quantity.

  • sabeq hamoosh

Mustafa is one of the best support for any electronic issues and deals… He is professional, decent nice and polite. He takes enough time to explain everything to his clients.. He solved many problems that others couldn’t. Highly recommended to everyone.

  • Mei Lee

Very experienced, personable staff. Took my laptop for repair, fair prices. Told me accurately what the issue was and that it would be a lot of money to fix it. Didn't try to push a sale. Very good, will be my go-to computer repair shop.

  • Carlos Escudero

After dealing with and getting quotes from multiple stores got the guys from Tecs to build my dream rig. They were realistic in their approach, delivered what was promised and by when. Reasonable prices and exemplary customer service.

  • Tony Kassimiotis

Fantastic service! I went to see the Tecs team today looking for screws for my Synology NAS.... I must say the service and knowledge of the team was excellent, thank you Moustafa! I cannot recommend these guys more highly! Tony

  • Arun Shanmukha

The service is very good and they really keep good effort in helping the customers. I would like to recommend them for computer or laptop support. They try maximum to repair or retrive the data without voiding the waranty.

  • Kimberley H.

Excellent service from Mostafa—he was friendly, helpful, and took time to explain things in detail. Called me less than an hour after I left my laptop with him, and told me he'd got it working again. Price was good, too.

  • Miguel Betudio

Highly recommend getting your components and computers done here. They will go out of their way to try to accommodate and help you. The price they charge you is very reasonable and hey, if I were you, I’d go support em!

  • Liz O'Dea

Friendly, helpful service for a recent purchase with a competitive price. Hopefully I won't need to test the warranty / service side of things but the other reviews here suggest all will be well with that if need be:)

  • Jarom Cao

I had my MSI GS66 laptop repaired here twice. Once was for the WIFI card, and another for the speakers. They damaged the strews on the back panel both times. Now, I can't open it up myself. Products were okay though.

  • C Wick

I recently purchased my first gaming PC from here and am really happy with it. Thank you Mostafa, Harry and the team for all your help! I highly recommend these guys especially if you're new to the PC gaming space.
