Hi
I have been upgrading my computer but it seems to be running slower than i had hoped for. For example if i have rome2 running, opening other programs seem to be slow at opening..Any ideas?
Here is the setup.
Motherboard: GA-990FXA-UD3
Cpu: Amd fx8350
12gb of ddr3 1333 memory
R7 260x graphics card
120 ssd
1tb wd black
coolmaster 500 psu


Also, What tools do you recommend for benchmarking?
 


wrong using 1600 or 1860 mhz ram you will not see any noticeable difference in every day use and no noticeable difference in FPS in games.
 


if u are getting lag of some kind then it could be because of the CPU overheating or a virus or malware.
so check the CPU temps and scan your pc with a good and updated antivirus .

GRUxTSAR. Yeah its slow at loading when trying to multitask it also randomly freezes up :(

prit87. The core temp is 35c no stress and 55 to 65 while under stress. No virus or malware.

Any other ideas? or any program suggestions i can use to check how the hardware should be running together ?
 


If you want to test your hardware then PRIME 95 for CPU , FURMARK for GPU, MEMTEST for RAM .
