Hi guys, I'm operating a laptop with Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1035G1 CPU @ 1.00GHz 1.19 GHz and 8GB of Ram. This is my personal laptop that I use for work, using the Citrix OS as well as WIndows 11. I also added a second monitor using HDMI to connect it to my laptop to make work easier. Anyway, the software I use in Citrix processes very slow, so I am wondering how I could increase the speed. Which of my peripherals do I need to upgrade if that's what you call it. Please excuse my ignorance on computer jargon.

Thank you in advance for any advice.
 
We are unable to help with work computers, if someone deletes a company files on accident or something of the sort, that would be bad. 😰

However we can talk general computer terms: There are no peripherals you can buy to 'tune-up' your computer or anything of that sort, most if not all of it is simply a placebo effect meant to capitalize off people who don't know better. To truly get better performance out of a PC you generally need to upgrade the components (The hardware such as the CPU, Ram, Hard Drive, etc). Since this is a laptop, the only things I would think you can upgrade the Ram and possibly the storage drive, but you have to determine if that's really worth it to you, you might be better off buying a new laptop if you want to start gaming or video editing, because it's simply too much to try and change (which sometimes you can't on laptops).
