We work with every major brand and configuration in Hawick. Whether your gaming PC is consumer, business-grade, or a custom build, send us the model details and we'll let you know what's involved.
Common causes for Hawick gamers: GPU thermal throttling (dust + dried paste), unstable RAM (XMP profile issues), failing PSU under load, or driver corruption. We diagnose by stress-testing components individually — Furmark for the GPU, MemTest86 for RAM, Prime95 for CPU stability — and watching temps and clocks. Most game-only crashes are GPU heat or PSU related. Honest initial diagnostic; we'll quote for the actual fix once we know which component is at fault.
Yes — sometimes. Artifacts (random pixels, lines, strange colours, texture corruption) are usually one of: VRAM failure on the card, GPU core failure, overheating, or a failing power circuit. For Hawick customers we diagnose with stress tools and a thermal camera. Reflow or repaste fixes some cases (especially older cards with thermal pad issues); VRAM-level failures sometimes need component-level repair. We'll tell you upfront whether it's worth fixing or replacing.
Yes — gaming PC upgrades are a regular Hawick job. Common upgrades: GPU swap (the biggest single performance bump), CPU upgrade (within the existing socket), RAM increase, NVMe SSD for faster game loads, AIO cooler replacement for high-TDP chips. We'll check your motherboard, PSU, and case clearance before recommending anything — no point upgrading the GPU if your PSU can't feed it.
