Don’t buy a new laptop just yet, upgrading a laptop is possible
Posted by: admin in Mobile News
If you think that your laptop can’t catch up with most of today’s Personal computer gaming and programs, don’t consider shelling out money to purchase a new laptop just yet. Yes, we’re speaking about upgrading your laptop yourself, and while the task isn’t as easy as counting one-two-three, it’s certainly possible as long as you know how to use basic tools such as screwdrivers and aren’t queasy with taking your laptop apart.
Thanks to the how-to guide posted in Computer World, laptop upgrading is now simplified - but don’t make the mistake of thinking that it’s something that a kid can do. Basic knowledge on taking electronics apart is still a must, so be forewarned.
One thing that should be kept in mind is that while upgrading laptops is possible, not all machines can be upgraded because some have their parts soldered or can’t be taken apart using conventional means (screwdrivers, etc).
Also, since you’re dealing with electronics, you have to keep your safety in mind so make sure you unplug your laptop from its power source and wear a grounded wrist strap to avoid electrical shocks.
Of course, you need to have all the tools needed to take apart your laptop. A wide selection of screwdrivers at hand will help a lot. Since you’ll be mostly dealing with screws, you’ve to make sure to remember which screw goes where so you won’t have any problems putting your machine back together again.
With that stated, it’s better to check if your laptop manufacturer provided a disassembly guide before you proceed, to make the task easier for you.
The following devices are the usual components that are changed during a laptop upgrade:
- RAM
- Hard Drive
- Optical Drive
- Bluetooth
- Wireless Card
