If you’re a passionate gamer, you know there’s nothing worse than stuttering frame rates, long loading times, or unexpected crashes mid-game. As games get more demanding and hardware continues to evolve, even the best setups from a few years ago can start to show their age. So how do you know when it’s time to upgrade your gaming rig?
At Help Computer Centre, 94 High Street, Bangor, we help gamers of all levels assess, upgrade, and repair their PCs to keep them running at peak performance. Here’s how to tell if your system needs a refresh—and how we can help.
🎮 1. You're Experiencing Low Frame Rates in New Games
If your favourite titles are lagging or dropping frames even on medium settings, your graphics card might be falling behind. Modern games like Cyberpunk 2077, Starfield, or Call of Duty: Warzone require serious GPU power.
How Help Computer Centre can help: We can test your current setup and recommend a graphics card that fits your needs and budget. Whether you're looking for a top-tier RTX upgrade or a mid-range option, we’ll build the best solution for you.
🔥 2. Your PC Is Overheating or Making Loud Fan Noises
Excessive heat or constant fan noise can mean your components are struggling. It could be due to dust buildup, failing thermal paste, or simply outdated cooling.
Let us handle it: At Help Computer Centre, we offer professional cleaning services and install efficient cooling systems—from air coolers to AIO liquid coolers. We’ll keep your system cool and quiet.
🕒 3. Load Times Are Sluggish
If your games or system are taking forever to load, you might still be running an older hard drive or not enough RAM.
Speed things up with our help: We can upgrade you to an ultra-fast NVMe SSD and install high-performance RAM to reduce load times and smooth out gameplay.
🧱 4. You’re Limited by Your Motherboard or CPU
Maybe you want a new graphics card, but your CPU can’t keep up—or your motherboard doesn’t support the latest tech. This is when a full platform upgrade becomes necessary.
Worried about compatibility? We handle complete system rebuilds at Help Computer Centre, ensuring all your components work together perfectly, and even offer advice tailored to your favourite games.
⚙️ 5. You’re Ready to Stream or Create Content
Streaming and content creation put extra stress on your PC. If you’re dropping frames in OBS or can’t render clips smoothly, it’s time for an upgrade.
We’ll future-proof your setup: Our team can recommend and install hardware suited for multitasking and content production, not just gaming.
