Sound Familiar?

These are the frustrations I hear about every day. If any of these sound like you, an upgrade can help.

"My PC takes forever to boot up and load programs"

You press the power button and go make coffee while you wait. Programs take ages to open. Everything feels stuck in slow motion.

🚨

"I'm constantly running out of storage space"

You keep deleting files to free up room. Windows warns you about low disk space every week. There's no room left for updates or new programs.

😴

"My computer can't handle modern software anymore"

Programs crash or run painfully slow. Video calls stutter and freeze. You can't have more than a few browser tabs open without everything bogging down.

🎮

"I want a custom gaming or work PC built right"

You want a machine tailored to exactly what you do — gaming, video editing, design work, or just a rock-solid home office setup — but you don't know where to start.

Upgrades I Perform

From quick SSD swaps to full custom builds, here's what I handle when it comes to hardware upgrades.

🚀

SSD Upgrades

I clone your existing hard drive to a new SSD so nothing is lost. Boot times drop from minutes to seconds, programs open instantly, and your whole PC feels brand new. This is the single best upgrade for most computers.

🧮

RAM Upgrades

More RAM means smoother multitasking. I'll check what your system supports, install compatible memory, and verify it's running at the right speed. Great for anyone who juggles multiple programs or browser tabs.

🖥

Custom PC Builds

I'll help you design a PC tailored to your exact needs and budget — gaming, video editing, home office, or anything else. I source parts at cost, build the system at your home, and configure everything so it's ready to use.

Graphics Card Upgrades

Whether you're gaming, doing creative work, or just need better display output, I'll match the right GPU to your system, verify power supply compatibility, and install it properly with updated drivers.

Power Supply Replacement

A failing or underpowered PSU causes crashes, shutdowns, and limits what upgrades you can install. I'll replace it with a reliable unit that has enough wattage for your current and future components.

🔍

Component Diagnostics & Replacement

Not sure what's failing or what to upgrade? I'll test your CPU, RAM, storage, GPU, and motherboard to pinpoint bottlenecks or failing parts, then recommend the most cost-effective upgrades for your situation.

Why Trust Me With Your Upgrades

Parts at Cost — No Markup

I bill parts at my exact cost. You'll see the receipt. I make my money on labor, not by marking up components. You get better parts for less than a shop would charge.

Compatibility Expertise

With 30+ years of building and upgrading PCs, I know exactly what fits your system — the right SSD form factor, the right RAM speed, the right GPU for your power supply. No guesswork, no returns.

Installed at Your Home

No dropping your PC off at a shop and waiting days. I bring the parts, install everything on-site, test it in front of you, and make sure you're satisfied before I leave.

Honest Recommendations

I'll never sell you an upgrade you don't need. If your system is too old to justify the investment, I'll tell you. If a $50 SSD will solve your problem, I won't push a $500 rebuild.

Hardware Upgrade FAQ

Will an SSD really make my PC faster?

Absolutely. Replacing a traditional hard drive with an SSD is the single biggest speed upgrade you can make. Boot times drop from minutes to seconds, programs open almost instantly, and everything feels snappier. It's the upgrade I recommend most often.

How much RAM do I need?

For general use and web browsing, 8 GB is the minimum I recommend. For multitasking, photo editing, or running multiple programs, 16 GB is the sweet spot. For gaming or video editing, 32 GB gives you plenty of headroom. I'll check what your system supports and recommend the right amount.

Do you provide the parts or do I need to buy them?

I source and provide all the parts. I'll recommend compatible, reliable components and bill them at my exact cost — no markup. You'll see the receipt. If you prefer to buy your own parts, that's fine too — I'll tell you exactly what to get.

Will I lose my files during an SSD upgrade?

No. I clone your existing drive to the new SSD so everything transfers over — your files, programs, settings, and Windows installation. When the upgrade is done, your PC works exactly the same, just much faster.

Can you build a custom PC for me?

Yes. Whether you need a gaming rig, a workstation for video editing, or a reliable home office PC, I'll help you pick the right components for your budget, order the parts at cost, and build and configure it at your home.

How do I know which upgrades my computer can handle?

That's part of the diagnostic. I'll check your motherboard, power supply, available slots, and current specs to determine exactly what upgrades are compatible. I won't recommend anything your system can't support.
