Tooj 17 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 I've had my PC for quite a while now, and the performance on it appears to be getting progressively slower, which as you can imagine is quite frustrating, especially when attempting to play Football Manager. Ideally I'd like to buy a Mac, however I can't really afford it at the moment, so I'm thinking of upgrading my RAM etc. Firstly, is this easy to do? As I've never had to do anything like this before, and is it just the RAM that I should be looking to upgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next in line would be to upgrade your graphics card (if you have an old slow one). THis really worked a treat for me..Just get a usb stick and it is used to snatch data fast a bit like ram... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ReadyBoost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj 17 Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 I'm currently using Windows 7 and only have 2GB of RAM at the moment. My PC must be about 5 years old now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
