Computer Upgrades

Upgrade is a term used to describe adding new hardware in a computer that improves its performance. For example, with a hardware upgrade you could replace your typical hard disk drive in a computer with a SSD and get a huge boost in performance or upgrade the RAM in the computer to make the computer run more smoothly.

Benefits of a hardware upgrade
  • Performance increase, which make the overall computer run faster and more smoothly.
  • Capacity increase. For example, adding a new hard drive allows the computer to store more information, and more memory increases the computers ability to run more.
  • It may be necessary to upgrade the computer to meet a program or games system requirements.
When referring to software, a software upgrade generally refers to any major upgrade to the software that adds significant changes to the program. For example, you may be running version 1.0.1 of a program, version 2.0.0 is an upgrade, and version 1.0.2 is anpdate. Another good example of a software upgrade is upgrading you version of Windows. For example, if you had Microsoft Windows XP and were upgrade to Windows 7 or Windows 8, it would be considered a software upgrade.

Benefits of software upgrade
  • New features not available or found in previous versions.
  • Often, the new version of a program has better stability and increased performance.
  • After so long an older software program will be discontinued and often no longer supported.
