welcome back hardware box fans and tech spot readers for a big announcement I'm very excited to inform you of a brand new series we're finally able to launch after months and months of planning the idea for this new series came to me after that huge rise in seven gaming PC giveaway that we did earlier in the year I really enjoyed the chance to give back to you guys even if I could only muster a single high-end PC which meant only one person was ever going to win but even so many of you took the time if that me for running the competition and we're really thankful just to have a shot at winning such a glorious computer this kind of feedback made me wish this was something I could do more often I tried to find a way to make that happen tech spot was in a similar situation with a big giveaway every now and then but not something that was structured to take place frequently I guess that's why other channels and tech sites also struggle to do these kind of giveaways on a regular basis as I read through your comments direct messages and emails I became more and more motivated to try and make the giveaways a regular thing most of you are pushing for less extreme giveaways and some even suggested upgrade packages mostly inspired by the fact that I have a ton of cool hardware that you can see behind me and I could potentially just give that away sadly we need that gear to produce those in depth benchmarks you often enjoy so it's not really an option then it dawned on me create a series where we give away upgrade packages tailored to an individual's computer and it was then the name upgrade my PC please jumped into my head for the past few months I've been developing the series and now we're finally ready to launch I say we because upgrade my PC please is a partnership between harbor unboxed and techspot so first what is upgrade my PC please well each week I'll be looking at five pcs from viewers who are in need of an upgrade I'll discuss their current hardware configuration and propose the upgrades I think we should make to improve their system for the upgrades we have allocated a budget of $500 us per episode during the first season the idea here is to help PC and through so we're struggling to keep those systems up to date and hopefully we can do that in an entertaining and educational fashion the five computers will no doubt all differ at least to a degree and therefore so too will the upgrade options once I proposed the upgrades it's then up to you the viewer to decide which one of the five systems deserves to win the upgrade package by voting for the PC that you want to see upgraded the most the winner will be announced at the start of the following episode and will purchase the hardware from their local computer store and have it delivered so they can carry out the upgrades for this the first season of upgrade my PC please we are only able to cover a select few regions but we do hope to expand the series as it develops for
