It’s been 3 months since I have my new pc :
Intel Core i5-12400F 6 Cores, 2,5GHz
16GB of RAM
Geforce RTX 3060
The thing is, everything I do on my computer is so slow ! I freeze and crash everytime I switch between my different programs, everytime I try to launch a game, everytime I make something on my computer!
More than that, when I look at the task manager with steam, browser and discord open the cpu use doesn’t even reach 20%!
Everytime I launch a game that use a lot of ram and cpu I make sure to close my browser and every other useless programs but nothing helps!
Please tell me someone have a solution cause I feel like using a janky computer while it’s completely new.
Disk info? I hope you have windows installed on a SSD. IMO in this day and age, I do not see the reason to use HDDs in anything other then a NAS. Hell, I do not even use SATA SSDs in my builds any more.
NAS doesn’t even make sense, since you only get it if you have the money. And I bet that you can pay like 10% more for SSDs
Truthfully, I would like to convert my NAS to SSDs as well.
I’m on HDD but as rsta223 said SSD is so expensive
I said it’d be expensive to convert my entire 60TB NAS to SSD.
A 1-2TB SSD to run your OS on is a perfectly reasonable expense, and will make a huge difference to your experience running the system.
Get SSD/nvme They are now priced cheap, especially now on black Friday is fine deals too. Don’t need to be 4tb! Just 1 or 2 is fine (often 2tb are the same prices as 1tb or just a few buck difference)
HDD turns on like 5min, not to mention if the WIN decidyto do some background stuff… pc becomes unusable for all that time and nothing will help, you will just sit and wait half an hour till it does stuff! So yeah - get an upgrade and save your time ^^
there is your problem. SSD prices are at the cheapest right now.
You need to get your main windows on a SSD. Even an ancient CPU like a 4790k will feel snappier with a SSD than a fast CPU without one.
HDDs good for large storage especially if your on a budget (much cheaper at 4tb+). And SATA ssds are good if you don’t have more nvme slots.
