With the omnipresence of digital technology in our daily lives, within the professional sphere but also in private life, the computer has become a tool that is as crucial as it is irreplaceable. However, the more time passes, the more its performance deteriorates and the more likely a breakdown or accident becomes. But, when this happens, do you have to buy a new machine or is it better to repair your device, to restore its capabilities and extend its lifespan? Very often, it is the second solution which is the most advantageous, provided it is carried out carefully, because it guarantees numerous benefits to those who choose it. Discover the 4 reasons why we advise you to take your PC to a repairer rather than replacing it
Replacing a PC is sometimes necessary but not always
Nothing lasts eternally. If your PC has reached its limits or suffered excessive damage, replacing it is the most reasonable option. However, in many cases it is more beneficial to take your machine to a professional for repairs.
Replacing a computer, a reasonable approach if necessary
All computing devices have an age limit and you will inevitably have to replace your PC one day, for various reasons:
- Breakdowns and performance problems are recurring , despite repairs; • The cost of the necessary repair is higher than that of purchasing a new device; • The damage caused to your computer is irreparable (e.g. internal components damaged by liquid); • Your needs have evolved and your device no longer meets them ; • Etc. If your computer has reached the end of its life and repairs are not enough to resolve the problems it is suffering from, you have no choice but to replace it. We put our expertise at your service to help you choose a new machine that perfectly meets your expectations.

Repairing your PC, a preferred option
Over time, your machine’s performance tends to decrease and a breakdown becomes more and more likely. However, many problems encountered by your device can be resolved by the intervention of a professional like PC Express, who can perform numerous services:
- Adding RAM memory to restore the speed of the computer . • Cleaning your PC and/or changing and repairing components (thermal paste, cooling system, etc.), to resolve concerns related to overheating. • Replacement of a defective keyboard or damaged screen . • Optimization of a machine’s components (adding graphics card, etc.) to restore its performance. • Etc. Repairing your PC should be prioritized over replacing it , except as a last resort. In fact, this option allows you to benefit from several advantages.
1-Save money by taking your PC to a repairer
Buying a new PC , professional or personal, is a significant investment . The more efficient the desired device, the higher the expense. On the other hand, repairing your machine involves much lower costs (time spent on the intervention, spare parts, etc.). Therefore, if your computer is repairable, we advise you to take it to a specialist like PC Express. You will receive a device in perfect condition and with restored performance, for a fraction of the price of a new device.
2-A repaired computer, a healthier planet
Global warming and the fight to preserve the earth’s ecosystem are increasingly omnipresent issues in our daily lives. By having your computer repaired, to extend its lifespan as long as possible, you are doing something beneficial for the planet:
- Fight against the proliferation of electronic waste , which is partly composed of harmful elements that are harmful to the environment . • Saving natural resources by reducing the need for production of new machines. • Optimization of greenhouse gas emissions generated by computer manufacturing. • Etc. Repairing a PC should therefore be the default solution for all friends on the planet, unless they have no other choice but to replace their device.
