What the Service Includes
The upgrade service covers current configuration check (RAM slots, storage type, CPU socket, max supported memory, BIOS version), selection of compatible components (DDR3/DDR4/DDR5 SO-DIMM, SATA/NVMe M.2 SSD, Intel/AMD CPUs), disassembly, removal of old modules, installation of new ones, cooling system cleaning, thermal paste/pads replacement, BIOS update if required, stability & temperature testing after upgrade. Often combined with laptop repair or software installation for optimal new-hardware performance.
When the Service is Needed
Upgrade is justified when the laptop noticeably slows down: long Windows boot, browser lag with many tabs, slow photo/video work, inability to run modern office apps or light games comfortably. Replacing HDD with SSD multiplies system responsiveness, adding RAM from 8 to 16/32 GB improves multitasking, CPU swap (where possible) boosts compute tasks. In Khmelnytskyi we recommend upgrade when the laptop is physically sound but feels outdated — saving 50–70% compared to a new device purchase.
