Hello,
I bought a prebuilt pc like 3 years ago and it wasnt anything that good, just little bit under normal gaming pc. This year I decided to upgrade my cpu for a better one because of the bottleneck. With the cpu I also bought a new motherboard because the motherboard in the prebuilt pc was not compatible with newer cpus. Everything was working good until this and last month (upgraded at the start of the year). Last and this month the pc has started to get pretty slow. Games are also not lagging but there are alot of unresponsive stuff going on. For example in games I would do something then there would be no sound and then after some seconds there would be a lag spike and the spike will last from seconds or even minutes. Then the sound will come back and the sound that I wasnt hearing can also be heard. Basicly playing back the sound that I wasnt hearing and in 5x speed. 80% chance that the game will also close in the middle of the lag spike and windows becomes unresponsive and also the box will be displayed on the screen saying that Microsoft Windows is not responding, do you want to wait or end the process. When I am not playing then windows is pretty slow and it will pretty often say that Microsft Windows is not responding even if im not doing almost anything. Task Manager shows nothing while playing or just being in the computer. I tought I had some kind of virus or something so I installed malwarebytes since windows one didnt find anything. Malwarebytes didnt find anything either. I downloaded ccleaner to clean it up, still nothing. Cleaned the drives, still nothing. Did a chkdsk and after that nothin changed and the only thing that I noticed was that when it scanned and repaired if needed and did a restart then I think it uninstalled App Center for Gigabyte motherboard wich I had. I googled and App Center was said to be a pretty xxxxxy thing. I tought that maybe that was the problem but still anything didnt change. Now im here trying to get help.
My psu is IARENA SERIES GPC-600S
