Why upgrade?

Upgrading the RAM in the system can improve your system performance significantly, alot of systems are shipped with the minimum amount of RAM to Run the operating system (e.g. 512MB in Vista Basic) once other applications start running the system has to use your Hard drive as virtual RAM (which is alot slower) a RAM upgrade removes the need for this to happen so oftern and RAM has never been cheaper.

Most modern single core systems can be upgraded to a duel core system by changing only the CPU, this can increase performance by upto 80% for a small cost.

Running out of storage space most desktop computers have room for a second hard drive, adding an additional HDD allows you to store more data without having to delete your existing content

Adding a DVDRW allows you to backup upto 4.7GB of data or 120Min of video (a CDRW only allows upto 700MB of data or 80Min of music)

Adding/upgrading your graphics card can allow you to play the latest HD Games for a fraction of the cost of a new gaming PC or games Console
