How to Upgrade Your GPU - Once You Can Finally Get One

The GPU shortage has been brutal for anyone attempting to build a PC over the last two years. Simply going out to purchase a GPU is next to impossible which has led people to find every creative way imaginable to source their FPS. For me, this was finding a friend with an older card to use until I could get my hands on a new one. Well, that day has finally come after a nearly one year wait.

In this video, I discuss my first ever PC build and take you through the process to upgrade a GPU (once you can finally get one). Finally, we take a look at some benchmark results to see how many more frames my newly upgraded computer can pump out.
