Hey, I recently installed a new mobo(asus m5a78l-m usb3) and new graphics card(dual-x r9 270).
Now for the problem, my whole computer slows down whether it be surfing the internet, or playing Runescape or Arma3 it doesn't seem to matter. I don't see anything in task manager that is concerning and I installed all neccessary drivers(also deleted then installed again) I don't know what to do anyone got any suggestions?

This happens every 5-15 seconds at random intervals it seems

Both of those temps are very low. What application are you using to monitor temperatures? If you are not sure, or are doing in your BIOS, download and install hwmonitor (linked below), just the free version.

Install and run in the background. The app will track your system temps. You can actually watch what happens with the temps when the system slows down/speeds up.

What am I supposed to be looking for when my computer goes slow all of the sudden?

AMD FX-Series FX-8120 Zambezi 3.1GHz

most of the changes are happening from the processor slowing down a little bit when it lags
