Upgrade Service

We're upgrading. Only what truly helps.

Too slow for your current game or project. We analyze where the bottleneck is and replace exactly that, nothing more. No blind-buy advice.

This is how it works.

  1. 01

    Bottleneck Check

    We'll look at your current PC: CPU, GPU, RAM, storage, power supply, and cooling. We'll tell you where the bottleneck truly lies. Sometimes it's not what you think.

    Upgrade Plan

    You will receive 2-3 options with clear figures: what to replace, how much it costs, how much more performance in percentages. No blind purchases, no bling-bling recommendations.

    Installation + Test

    New parts are installed, the system is re-calibrated, drivers are clean, benchmarks before-and-after. You'll see in black and white what the conversion achieves.

Questions

Frequently asked.

When is an upgrade worthwhile and when is a new purchase?

Rule of thumb: if the CPU socket and motherboard are still current, an upgrade is almost always worthwhile. If both are outdated (more than 2 generations old), a new build is often worthwhile. We'll tell you which case applies to you, without sales pressure.

What if the new parts aren't compatible?

Doesn't happen with us. We check compatibility (socket, RAM type, PSU wattage, case size, PCIe slots) before you buy. If something doesn't fit, we'll exchange it for free.

Can I bring my own parts?

Yes, gladly. We will install and test. You only pay for the labor (from CHF 90). We do not provide a guarantee for parts supplied by you, but we will clarify this beforehand.

Do my data and Windows installation remain?

Usually, yes. We simply transfer your SSD to the new setup. Only with a complete motherboard change does Windows sometimes need to be reactivated, which we will do for you.

Curious where your bottleneck is?
