Tell us what's frustrating you about your current machine — slow boot, lag, gaming performance. We'll diagnose the actual bottleneck and recommend the upgrade that gives you the most improvement per dollar.
We source compatible components or you can bring your own. We verify compatibility with your existing motherboard, case, and power supply before anything is ordered.
Parts are installed properly — thermal paste, secure seating, cable management. After install, we benchmark before and after so you can see the improvement in numbers.
Pick up your upgraded machine same-day in most cases. For SSD upgrades with OS migration, plan for next-day pickup. 60-day guarantee on all labor.

For most people with a slow computer: an SSD. The difference between an old spinning hard drive and a modern NVMe SSD is dramatic — we're talking 10x faster boot times and near-instant application launches. If you're already on an SSD and still slow, RAM or a CPU upgrade is next.
Most desktops can be upgraded to some degree. Laptops are more limited — most allow RAM and SSD upgrades, but many newer thin-and-light models have soldered components. We'll assess your specific machine and tell you what's possible.
No. SSD upgrades include OS and data migration — your files, settings, and programs move to the new drive. RAM and GPU upgrades don't touch your storage at all.
Either works. If you want us to source parts, we'll give you the price upfront. If you prefer to buy your own, bring them in and we'll install them for a flat labor fee.
It depends on the age and condition of the machine. A 5–7 year old PC with a good CPU can often be transformed with an SSD + RAM upgrade for $100–$200. We'll give you an honest cost-versus-benefit assessment.
