It is usually heat, not hardware
When a gaming PC or laptop loses FPS, gets loud or shuts down mid-game, the usual culprit is thermal throttling: dust, dried-out thermal paste, blocked airflow. The CPU and GPU protect themselves by slowing down. A new graphics card fixes nothing if the old one is suffocating.
Complete thermal service — € 119
Full disassembly and cleaning, new quality thermal paste, fan check, and a before/after measurement so you see what it brought. For most machines this restores original performance — considerably cheaper than any hardware upgrade.
Honest upgrade advice
If your machine genuinely needs more, we tell you what actually helps for your games and budget: an SSD upgrade (€ 89), more RAM, or — only when it truly makes sense — a GPU. We sell you the bottleneck fix, not the most expensive part.
