Updated 29/07/2025: The store formerly known as InfoStar has rebranded as GamerStar. The ownership and team remain the same.

Most people in Brasília looking for computer parts automatically head to the well-known computer stores in CLN 207/208, often referred to as Rua da Informática. However, over the years I have found myself returning instead to GamerStar in CLN 406, Bloco E.

GamerStar operates primarily as a wholesale IT supplier, but they are also happy to sell directly to individual customers. Whether you are building a new computer, upgrading an existing one, or simply trying to replace a failed component, they usually have a surprisingly large selection in stock. Hard drives, SSDs, memory, motherboards, power supplies, processors, graphics cards, gaming peripherals, networking equipment, cables, and adapters are all part of their regular inventory.

One thing I particularly appreciate is that if they do not have something available, they are generally able to source it quickly rather than simply telling you to look elsewhere.

Another reason the store stands out, especially for foreigners living in Brasília, is that Alexander Ferreira, the Commercial Director, speaks excellent English. If you are not familiar with technical terminology in Portuguese, this can save a lot of frustration. He is always willing to explain options, recommend suitable components, and point customers in the right direction if they need repairs or technical support.

Personally, I have purchased most of my computer equipment there over the years and have always received good service. The staff know their products, the prices are competitive, and all products are sold with the appropriate warranties.

For anyone living in Brasília and looking for reliable computer parts, upgrades, gaming equipment, or technical advice, GamerStar is definitely worth keeping on your list of places to visit.
