Isn't that what they used to do?

Not really.

They had a lot of parts for radio and electronics hobbyists. Also they sold some of the first personal computers like the TRS-80 and Tandys.

RadioShack never transitioned well in the larger pc market like microcenter. They never sold motherboards or video cards. It was never a build your own PC shop.

I used to work at Microcenter back in like 2014. Made a lot of money in the build your own department!

Their motherboard cpu deal is hard to beat. I've used it for several builds.

I still use a Cooler Master HAF 912 case from there too. I love that beast of a case. I run it with the side panel off so I can see all my pretty LEDs. Lol

Well most pc shops have closed their shops anyway so I don't see how that could have saved them. I think they can make a comeback by providing 3d printing services for hard to find parts. They just got into the crypto game which I find a little strange like if they officially ran out of ideas.
