The word "upgrade" is familiar to many of us. We are constantly upgrading something, computers, software, everything is subject to upgrade over time. But why do you need an upgrade, maybe stop and not disrupt the systems?
An upgrade is an update of both hardware (components of PCs, laptops, etc.) and software. Over time, we acquire faster computers, laptops, components for them (we change the processor or video card for what is better and faster, we increase the amount of RAM, the amount of read-only storage devices). Also, as new versions of the software are released, we update the installed programs, install new, more functional ones. What are the problems with such a wonderful process?
To begin with, it should be noted that a constant upgrade is a rather expensive task. When purchasing, for example, a new processor, you need to be ready to change the motherboard (if the old one cannot work with the new product) and other components. Thus, the wrong choice of hardware can greatly destabilize the PC, instead of improving it. Moreover, not every hardware upgrade will bring a noticeable increase in performance, so it is not necessary to upgrade for the sake of an upgrade unambiguously.
An OS upgrade can also bring a lot of problems, and the most obvious one is the incompatibility of the required software with the new system. Also, the new OS may not support work with not the newest peripheral equipment and PC components, which will also not benefit the user.
Another problem with upgrading OS and software is the increased "exactingness" of new versions of programs to computer resources, which leads the user to the need for unforeseen expenditures on hardware.
Helpful Hint: Not every upgrade will be beneficial. If you have any thoughts about upgrading your software or PC, analyze the need for this event. If you just want to buy a new product, you should not upgrade, because you simply cannot save enough money for each new product …
