Upgrades

Upgrade your system for a better experience…

We specialise in upgrading computers. However, we always have to balance the merits of doing so with the customer. Once we know which components the customer wants to improve, then we discuss the cost and implications of the work.

It is not always cost effective to upgrade if you have to change too many parts – most older computers can still be sold as is, and when you factor in the cost of the parts you intend to buy with the money you get from the sale of the old one you will usually come close to the cost of a new computer/device.

As a rule of thumb we find that the following component upgrades are usually a good investment.

CD Writer, DVD, DVD Writer, Blu-Ray Player
Additional Memory (especially if your computer has less than 1GB)
A Larger Hard Drive
A Sound or Graphics Card
A Wireless Network Card

For more information regarding upgrades, please get in touch with us for a free, no-obligation quote.

Brilliant experience with Dan. Laptop was in a bad state following a drop, with the chassis and power ruined. Dan was really professional throughout, talking me through potential issues and fixes, as well as advising of the worst potential outcome. Dan managed to sort the issues, repair my laptop and save me a small fortune in having to buy a new one! Great result supportive and great communication throughout the repair.Thank you so much

I had a complete shut down of my Pc. Corstorphine Computers were close by so hoped they could save my Pc. Within 24hrs I was back up and running with fixes applied to my graphics card and cd drive and at a very reasonable cost. I would easily recommend them for any computer issues and I hope to return for some general upgrades soon. Many thanks to Corstorphine Computers for making a worrying situation go away. Kevin

More than delighted with the service received from Dan when he updated my PC recently & migrated all relevant information to the new machine. I am now virus free and working on a responsive system with speed as opposed to my previous old banger! Dan was happy to help with any questions / issues that I had after his work was completed - and there were many! - so I wouldn,t hesitate to recommend him. Good luck with the new set up.

Never mind the "wizards" on your PCs. Dan the man is THE WIZARD when it comes to PC problems. I have used him on quite a few occasions and he has tackled every PC problem and solved it to my complete satisfaction. I give him a high recommendation to anyone requiring a IT specialist.

Dan is the man when it comes to IT support. His expertise and advice has been invaluable in ensuring that my online Virtual Assistant business runs smoothly. Even when faced with perplexing IT issues, Dan will keep working until a solution is found. It's reassuring to know that help is just a phone call away when you need it.
