Did you not buy a system only a couple of years ago?

 

[dominicmcafee]

Ha, good memory! I did like in 2019/2020. I have outgrown it now and need a major upgrade.

 

[dominicmcafee]

I cant seem to add the BT card after the fact. I'm assuming the motherboard already has it built it as it were?

You likely don't need to replace it, the whole point with PCs is that they're modular and upgradeable.

Can you post your full specs from the order page?

What is it that's lacking performance?

What make and model monitor are you using?

What's your max budget for this?

So this can be easily upgraded and will give you far more performance at a lesser budget than you could get spending out on a full new system.

But we need your max budget?

 

[dominicmcafee]

Max budget = £3,500 inc vat

Max budget = £3,500 inc vat

A caveat to that is that I have a use for my current system so I may want to keep it. If you could recommend or optimise a new system that would be great.
