Hardware Updates

Do you want a faster system? Put faster parts in it. That’s the simple answer to a question that every PC owner asks from time to time. But replacement parts aren’t free, and cash-strapped computer enthusiasts know that the key is to put their money where it counts most.

Hardware upgrades can extend the life of your current computer. When you purchased your new Computer System, it was the latest and greatest, but six months later there was already a computer better and faster on the market. We can help you keep up with rapidly changing technology by performing simple, low-cost upgrades to your existing computer.

Call us today to find out how computer hardware upgrades can improve productivity, increase processing speed and keep you on the cutting edge of computer technology without purchasing a whole new desktop system.

1. RAM: Your computer uses RAM (Random Access Memory) to perform tasks and operations. More RAM enables your computer to run faster and handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Upgrading RAM is a simple way to boost performance—on desktops, it’s easy to replace, while on laptops, you may need to consult your user manual for instructions.
2. Storage (Hard Drives & SSDs): Hard drives in most laptops and desktops are modular and easy to upgrade. Replacing your current drive with a faster model or one with larger capacity allows you to store more programs, music, and photos. For desktops, multiple drives can be installed for expanded storage or backups. For even faster performance, consider upgrading to a Solid-State Drive (SSD). SSDs provide faster boot times, improved system responsiveness, and greater durability compared to traditional hard drives, making them ideal for modern computing needs.
3. Optical disc drive: Upgrading to a new DVD burner or a Blu-ray disc drive will give your computer new capabilities. An optical drive is easy to install, and you may even be able to install multiple drives on the same desktop, with one drive as the master drive and a second as a “slave” drive.
4. Processor: Your processor is crucial for speed and overall performance. Upgrading is straightforward but requires matching the new processor to your motherboard’s socket type for compatibility.
5. Video card/GPU: Graphics processing units (GPUs) are essential for tasks like gaming, video editing, and 3D rendering. Upgrading your video card enhances graphics performance, allowing you to enjoy high-definition entertainment or play the latest games seamlessly.
