Hardware Upgrades and Memory Upgrades

Hardware upgrades come in the form of many different items ranging from internal or external components to peripheral equipment and accessories.  You may need them to achieve a task you were unable to do before or to make that task quicker or more manageable.

Phil Guy Computer & Repairs based in Plymstock, Plymouth, provides an extensive installation and upgrade service for home users and small businesses. Our service caters for a range of systems (which includes laptops and personal computers) and we can install or upgrade almost any component, equipment, accessory. This can range from Memory Upgrades (some additional RAM (Random Access Memory)) to increase your system's performance, an additional or larger hard drive to give you more storage space, dual display cards to support multiple monitors or a new motherboard and / or processor to take advantage of the latest technologies or simply the correct cabling to get the most out of your hardware.

Hardware upgrades however, do need a level of computer knowledge in order to match the right product with your existing system and your requirements, not to mention your pocket.  Care must be taken as incorrect products can damage / be damaged or conflict with your system or simply not work.  We purchase new and replacement products from leading UK retail outlets. You get reliable products from trusted vendors with full manufacturer warranties and at competitive prices and of course you get our knowledge in order to guide your purchase to the correct equipment.

We offer free general and practical advice if you would like to talk over your needs or discuss a situation without obligation.

The majority of installations and upgrades will be carried out at our premises and we offer a pick-up-drop-off option at a small additional charge.  In some situations, we can perform the installation or upgrade whilst at your home or place of business but a call-out charge will apply.  We will advise you as to what is best when preparing your estimate.

We will always ensure that your new device(s) functions correctly with your existing software or hardware prior to completing any job.
