Friends who have "old computers" at home raise their hands~
In this issue, we will share content about the upgrade configuration of old computers.
Some netizens said: Because the computer has been used for too long, it has been used for five or six years and has been very stuck in operation, so I have to pay for a new computer. Then the old computer was reluctant to throw it away, so he put it in the study to eat ashes.
It's a pity. Why not upgrade the configuration of the old computer and let the old computer "run" again!
If you want to immediately improve computer performance, the most important thing is to upgrade " solid-state drive " and "memory hardware".
is a secretly happy. You don’t have to spend too much money on these two hardware, because the prices are relatively cheap. About 200 this will be fine.
If this is beyond your budget, you can choose between the two hardware. According to your computer needs, choose to upgrade the running memory stick or solid-state drive.
Generally speaking, the demand for handling web pages is large, so you can choose to install a computer to run the memory stick. If you need to process some software on your computer, you can choose to install a solid-state hard drive.
Of course, it is recommended that the two be upgraded together with the best effect.
PS: First handle the dust accumulation in the monitor and chassis, and then upgrade the hardware.
1. Memory stick
Memory stick is a hardware that can support the normal operation of software and system on the computer. The larger the running memory of the memory stick, the greater the space for the computer to store the software and system, and the smoother the operation.
Although CPU is the computer's computing core, the CPU's computing speed requires the assistance of running memory. Therefore, the larger the memory of the computer running, the faster it will run all kinds of data, and the response speed and response speed of the web page will also be improved.
In summary, the size of the memory stick determines the running speed when multitasking.
Do you want to see the running memory of your computer? The method is as follows:
1. Right-click "This computer" and select "Properties" to open it.
2. You can view the size of the running memory (RAM) on the properties page.
If your computer is mainly used for daily text processing, browsing web pages, playing games and other ordinary applications, you can choose to install an 8GB running memory stick;
Ordinary online games and ordinary drawings can choose a 16GB running memory stick.
2. SSD
Change the state of lag or not smooth old computers. It is very important to install SSDs, which will directly make the old computers rejuvenate for a second time!
Most old computers are equipped with mechanical hard disk , and the reading and writing speed is not fast, and even daily lightweight applications can easily cause lag.
The sketching speed of the solid state drive is obviously faster. This is the case, if you start the computer for half a minute or more, then installing solid state can achieve fast boot in 10 seconds, or even faster. The software opening speed has also been greatly improved, and the web page is also opened at a glance, so you don’t have to wait for a long time.
very suitable~
Therefore, if you need to use a computer for office study, you can choose to install a solid-state hard drive, which greatly improves office efficiency.
However, the installation of solid state for old computers only significantly improves the running speed of lightweight applications, but it still cannot run large games or applications with high requirements for CPU and graphics cards.
Finally, when choosing a solid state drive, you need to pay attention to old computers. Generally, old laptops only support SATA interface , so when choosing a solid state drive, you need to choose the SATA3 interface. M.2 interface cannot be installed.
So, that's all for this issue. Both hardware are installed on old computers, so you don’t have to choose ones that are too expensive. Choose ones with guaranteed quality and you can accept the price.
