    Question Adding a video card need advice

    Thats good to have it backed up, better safe than sorry. Also getting an SSD vastly improves load times, write speeds, and is way more reliable over time. They sell them for dirt cheap nowadays on newegg.com I got 2 for $72 CAD each.

    Question Adding a video card need advice

    I agree with Ltfij here. A more sufficient power supply is a must, it paves the way for more upgrades in the future. Also I would like to make a quick suggestion, seagate brand hard disk drives are bad news. If at all possible either look into getting a Western Digital HDD or switch to an SSD as...

    Question Hello there! I am a newbie to upgrading my pc and would like some advice if possible.

    I have discovered that my RAM is bottlenecking my pc performance, my GPU and CPU are both hardly being used when running a game whilst my RAM is 40-70% in use. Good thing I have that ram you recommended inbound.
