Can PC Parts be Replaced ?

About 2 years ago i built my PC. It has inevitably started to slow down and I am now starting to get into some video editing on Premiere and also wanting t use After Effects but my computer doesn't really like it because it starts to run really slow when i try to use them. I was wondering if it is possible to just replace certain parts to make my computer "good as new" if possible.

Thanks

You would need to check your motherboards manual (or the website for the motherboard manufacturer) to see what your motherboard's capacity is for processor, memory, etc.

What speed is your computer right now... how much memory do you have in it? What type of vid card do you have?
