Good PC feels so slow.
I've recently been having this problem with my pc feeling like its running like a snail for the past week or so & I honestly don't even know what to do about it. Also, been stuttering in tf2 but its probably because of poor optimization from valve...

Spec
RTX 2070 Super
Ryzen 5 3600
16 GB Ram @ 3000MHz
2TB HDD
512GB SSD

When do you feel this slowness? Obviously anything on the disk drive is going to be a crawl and rubbish internet is going to slow that down. Your gpu and cpu should be able to hold at least 185+ fps on 1080p

1. Are all of your drivers up to date?
2. Did you install the latest BIOS update for your motherboard?
3. Have you kept up to date with Windows 10 1909?

[insert a snip of Intel fanboys hating on Ryzen here, like "oh it's slow cuz it's amd lul"]

We call those people trolls mate, they want nothing more than either disinformation or a kick out of someone else's pain.

It's funny how that BS comment came right after I predicted it with my insert; within a second.

The 3600 trades blows with the 7700K while running a 2080 Ti -- sometimes winning, sometimes losing, sometimes being evenly matched.

It's not too weak for a 2070S or 2080S. It'll only struggle with a 2080 Ti in CPU limited titles where it comes down to raw single-threaded performance and high clocks.

Excuse me, whos calling who a fanboy?

It is clear you lack proper understanding of how this all works, or you get a rise out of spreading misinformation to people who need help.

@OP, please ignore this troll.

My ryzen 5 2600 simply could not supply nearly enough power for my 2080 hence my switch to the supreme intel.

Considerable difference between the 2600 and 3600. Do your research before you troll like it's your first time on the internet.

I'm pretty sure this guy's purpose on HW&OS is to troll, don't try to disprove him, just report and let mods decide what to do with him.

Back on track... what do you mean by slow? Low FPS? Mouse cursor moves slow? Is the OS installed on the SSD?

What I meant was that everything is loading slow & pretty frequent. Also, most of the programs usually just become unresponsive. & yeah, the os is installed on my ssd

Then you should stop posting garbage and listen to the king of hardware parts: yours truly.
Dude, can you not argue about intel vs amd? This thread is suppose to be helping me out (and possibly others) with my problem

Run the trim command with any sort of SSD tool.
