Upgrade to Speed Up a Tired PC or Laptop
Here are 6 things your technicians can do to speed up a tired PC:
Install a Solid State Drive (SSD)
Replacing a traditional hard drive with an SSD is one of the single most impactful upgrades you can make. SSDs have no moving parts, leading to faster boot times, quicker application launches, and overall improved responsiveness.
Add more RAM
If your PC frequently struggles with multitasking or feels sluggish when opening multiple programs, adding more RAM can significantly improve performance. Technicians can assess your current RAM usage and suggest an appropriate upgrade.
Upgrade the graphics card
For users who rely on graphics-intensive applications like gaming or video editing, upgrading the graphics card can provide a noticeable performance boost. Technicians can evaluate your needs and recommend a compatible card.
Clean up unnecessary files and programs:
Over time, PCs accumulate temporary files, unused programs, and clutter that can slow down performance. Technicians can perform a deep clean, removing unnecessary files and uninstalling unused programs.
Optimize startup programs
Many programs automatically launch at startup, consuming resources and slowing down boot times. Technicians can disable unnecessary startup programs, ensuring your PC boots and runs faster.
Re-installing OS without loosing data
Reinstalling the operating system can also be a good option for a clean slate, especially if your PC is plagued by software issues or bloatware. Technicians can back up your important data and perform a clean reinstall, often resulting in a significant performance improvement.
