    Slow computer after motherboard/GPU upgrade

    I recently upgraded my motherboard from an MSIB450 TOMAHAWK to an MSI B550 gaming edge. I also upgraded my GPU from an old hand me down GPU to an MSI GeForce 1050TI. The rest of my internal hardware is the same including RAM, CPU, PSU, and my hard drives. Since my upgrade my computer has been running SIGNIFICANTLY slower. I used to have to give it a minute at boot as my hard drives aren’t really top notch but so long as I walked away to get a drink it would run fine. Now it takes forever just to open Firefox or Google Chrome and I haven’t even been able to get steam to properly boot before I lose my patience. Any ideas as to why this could be.

    Did you do a clean install of Windows after swapping in the MSI B550 gaming edge.
