Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about gaming pc repair in Kelso, Scottish Borders.
Every gaming PC job is a little different, so we discuss the work and the price directly with you before anything starts. Send us a message or give us a call with a quick description of the issue and we'll come back with a clear plan tailored to your gaming PC. No surprises and no hidden fees — you'll know exactly what's involved before you commit.
Most gaming pc repair jobs in Kelso are completed the same day or within 24–48 hours, depending on the fault and parts availability. If you book first thing in the morning, simple fixes are usually returned by the evening. For more complex jobs we can collect from anywhere in TD5 — Bridge Street, Roxburgh Street, The Square — and keep you updated by message until the gaming PC is back with you.
Yes — we cover the full TD5 postcode area. That includes Bridge Street, Roxburgh Street, The Square, the Square, the Abbey side, the Tweed side, and the rest of central Kelso. Whether you need a workshop drop-off, a home visit, or doorstep collection, we adapt to fit your schedule.
All our labour comes with a 30-day workmanship warranty — if the same fault returns, we'll put it right. Parts we supply (batteries, SSDs, screens, keyboards) carry the manufacturer's warranty, typically 6–36 months depending on the component.
We work with every major brand and configuration in Kelso. 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.
Crashing in games but stable in desktop work points at heat, power, or memory. For Kelso gaming rigs we run controlled stress tests (Heaven, OCCT, MemTest86) while logging temps and clocks. The pattern usually identifies the culprit: GPU throttling means cooling/paste; PSU sag points to wattage; XMP-related crashes mean a memory tune. We'll explain what we found, fix what's broken, and stress-test before handover.
Yes — depending on severity and what's failing. Light artifacts are often a thermal issue (dried paste, choked cooler, dried thermal pads on VRAM); we strip, repaste, replace pads, retest. Persistent artifacts that don't change with temperature usually mean a dead memory module on the card — fixable in some cases by component-level work, not in others. For Kelso gamers we always quote both the repair and the realistic replacement so you can choose.
Yes — and we approach gaming upgrades as a system, not just a single component. For Kelso customers the real question is what's bottlenecking you: low FPS at high res = GPU; sim/strategy stuttering = CPU; loading delays = SSD; streaming hitches = RAM/CPU. We benchmark your existing setup, identify the actual constraint, and recommend the upgrade with the best price-per-frame for your specific workload.
