Computer slow...hardware...what are my options?
Hello, I have a clean (recent new install of windows with few programs) on a Lenova desktop.
The computer is just slow if I put too much of a load on it...which I tend to do.
It seems the CPU is high and RAM is near its limits often.
Question is: would be best to simply buy a computer that is able to handle more, OR, is it relatively feasible and cost beneficial to upgrade the hardware of this computer to perform at a higher level?
I would like the computer to handle two, maybe 3 monitors...at present, it handles 1.
I understand what drives up CPU usage, but what is it that a computer needs to handle more? Is that RAM? or the processor orrrr?
Thanks in advance. P.S. I'm not a gamer if that makes a difference? //
