Help in PC

[𝕎𝕙𝕒𝕥¿]

Good day, I am writing this text so that you can help me, let's begin.
I had an old PC (I can't remember the components now), I decided that it was time to throw it away and buy a new one. I threw it away completely except for the Hard Drive (it had all the games, photos and much more on it) I decided to order a completely new computer, I ordered it and it arrived. I ordered it without a Hard Drive, because I wanted to insert my own.
It seemed like everything should be fine, I wanted to play games and much more, but the performance in games remained the same as on the old PC, although the components of the new computer are 10 times better. Help solve the problem.

so you want to use the old drive on the entire new pc?

what os was on the old drive?

does the drive show up in bios?


if the old build is that much older than the new build, you should just get a new drive for the new os install
then add the other drive and copy all of your stuff to it
or you could have kept the old system, and made a backup or copied stuff to the new pc using network shares

I usually like to install windows over again on a new pc, but you don't have to. I've straight up put a hard drive from an entirely different computer into a new one and it worked. You still have to uninstall remaining drivers from the past build and install all the new ones though. If you didn't do that then that's what I would do next.

Without knowing the old hardware and new hardware, and what games, settings, and conditions, it's impossible to say. It's possible you're still being limited by something and confusing "performance still isn't perfect" for "performance is the same". Unless you logged your exact performance, and properly, using both PCs, we can't assume performance is actually the same. It's more than likely not the same, but rather something still feels less than desired is all.

It would help to know if you're referring to games, or OS use, or the internet. For example, if the internet is spotty due to WiFi or poor service, that would remain and might be confusing you.

DO NOT THROW AWAY ELECTRONICS.

Either find a reputable place that takes them for recycling, donate to a place like FreeGeek that refurbishes old tech, or maybe donate to a community college for A+ Cert classes to practice on.

if it was a good gaming pc 5-10 years go, it would make an awesome htpc
put it on a tv, and you can stream games to it using remote play
