Why is My PC Running Slow?

Asked by TechyTurtle42
I'm experiencing some noticeable slowness on my PC, which is affecting my gaming and video streaming. I've done a disk cleanup, and I still have 43.3 GB available on my C drive. I've also disabled all startup applications, but the performance issue persists. I've checked for dust, and the insides of my computer are clean. Additionally, I've scanned for viruses using both Microsoft Defender and F-Secure, and neither found anything. I'm looking for advice on how to improve my PC's speed.

To better help you, could you share your PC's specs? Knowing your storage, CPU, and RAM would be really useful. Also, what operating system are you using? It could give some clues about the slow performance.

Given your setup with an AMD Ryzen 5800XT and dual GPUs, it sounds like you have decent hardware! Are you using Windows 11? Sometimes, background processes can slow things down too, so check your Task Manager for any programs hogging resources.
