Hi Guys, I was hoping someone could shed some light on this issue for me. I've recently put together a new build consisting of an FX 8350, Hyper 212 Evo, 8 GB G. Skill Ram, Asrock Extreme 4 Mobo & a ATI 7770 GHz. The build was originally meant to be a budget build but things got a bit out of hand, for this reason I passed on the SSD and instead installed Windows 8 on a WD Caviar Blue 1TB. Since I've put it together though I feel that Windows 8 has been pretty sluggish all round. I haven't used an AMD CPU in quite a while but I can't help but feel it is much slower than my previous i5 3570K + SSD build. I was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? At first I had an AMD 6100 and thought maybe it was just the CPU so I then upgraded to the 8350, whilst there was a marked improvement, it hasn't solved the problem.
Hopefully someone might have some ideas as to the source of the problem as I'm not quite sure if the problem lies with the CPU or HDD. Cheers guys
