If your PC feels slow, an SSD upgrade is often the biggest improvement. HDDs are older spinning drives; SSDs are much faster and more reliable for daily use.

• HDD: Slower, cheaper, moving parts, longer boot times
• SSD: Faster, better responsiveness, no moving parts, quicker updates

Best upgrade: Move Windows and programs to an SSD, keep HDD for extra storage (optional).

• 8GB: Basic use (email, browsing). Can feel tight with lots of tabs.
• 16GB: Best value for most people. Great for gaming + multitasking.
• 32GB: Best for heavy workloads: editing, streaming, CAD, large projects.

If your PC slows down when multiple programs are open, RAM may be a bottleneck — but storage and malware can also cause slowdowns.

Try these in order:

• Restart modem + router (unplug 30 seconds)
• Move closer to router (test if distance is the issue)
• Use 5GHz for speed (short range) / 2.4GHz for range
• Update router firmware (if available)
• Switch Wi-Fi channel (crowded neighborhoods cause interference)
• Test a wired ethernet connection to compare speeds

Tip: If your router is 5+ years old, an upgrade often improves speed and stability dramatically.

• Close suspicious tabs (do not click “Allow” or “Download”)
• Run Windows Security scan (Virus & threat protection)
• Remove unknown browser extensions
• Uninstall suspicious apps (Settings → Apps)
• Reset browser settings (Chrome/Edge)

If popups keep returning, the infection may be deeper — we can perform a full cleanup and security hardening.

• Clean dust from vents and fans (compressed air)
• Ensure airflow: don’t block intake/exhaust vents
• Check CPU temps (Task Manager / monitoring tool)
• Replace thermal paste if system is older
• Consider better case airflow or upgraded cooler

Overheating can shorten component life — if temps remain high after cleaning, a deeper inspection is recommended.

• Gaming: prioritize GPU first, then CPU + 16GB RAM
• Work/Office: prioritize SSD + CPU, 16GB RAM recommended
• Editing/CAD: strong CPU + 32GB RAM, fast SSD storage
• Streaming: extra RAM + CPU headroom helps

The best builds are balanced — overspending in one area can leave performance on the table.

• Air: reliable, lower cost, great for most users
• AIO: cleaner look, good temps, moderate cost
• Custom Loop: best temps & aesthetics, highest cost, requires maintenance

If you want maximum performance and a premium look, water cooling is great — but not always needed.

• Buying incompatible parts (socket/RAM type)
• Underpowered PSU (power supply)
• Not planning airflow (hot GPU + poor case ventilation)
• Forgetting storage or Windows install needs
• Skipping stress testing after the build

• Clear headline (what you do + who you help)
• Strong call-to-action (call, message, quote form)
• Trust signals (reviews, photos, service area)
• Fast load speed (compressed images, clean layout)
• Simple navigation (don’t overwhelm visitors)

• Set up Google Business Profile
• Use consistent Name/Address/Phone across web
• Get real reviews (Google + Facebook)
• Use service pages (PC Repair, Web Dev, Custom PCs)
• Add your service area and city names naturally

Local SEO takes consistency — small steps over time bring strong results.

• Service list + pricing “starting at”
• Gallery / before & after photos
• Reviews section
• Simple quote form
• Click-to-call button on mobile
• Service area map
