My pc slowed down suddenly without any reason.

I was playing a game and my pc was working perfectly fine.Then moved up pc case little further (while its working).After than I opened the game again and I experience terrible lag (same game).I tried diffrent game's and still same lag all over.

First I ran a virus scan and then I boot up another OS and again I experienced a lag so its possibly hardware problem.

After than I opened the case and tried to move the pc again you know check the cable's etc and now the situation is little bit better but still performance is very low.The fans are working fine and it seems there is no heat issue ?


Can anyone help me ?

I7 4770 K 3,5 GHZ
MSI Military Class MSI MS 7823
ASUS GTX 780 3 GB 386 Bit
PSU 850 watt (not sure the brand but its 2 months old)
2x4 GB Kingston Ram
1 TB DISK

so wait are you saying you hooked the TV up to the PC? or simply just moved the PC for the tv?

if the PC is hooked up to the tv and you notice performance issues, its the display, not the computer. TVs aren't like computer monitors, especially not gaming monitors. A good gaming screen would be a monitor with high refresh rate (60hz, 120hz, 144hz) and low latency (1ms, 2ms, 5ms tops). TVs are built usually on 60hz, 120hz, or 240hz, but also the computer is limited to 60hz because of HDMI connection. However, where the TV will perform noticably poorer is the latency. Most major brand TVs are in the ballpark of 6ms, 8ms, and sometimes even higher latency. That would cause a lot of screen tearing (pixel like effect when moving in a game) and isnt ideal for PC at all.

if thats NOT what you were saying, i dunno man... please give more information!

well, that seems weird.

try looking at your task manager under the performance tab to see what is using the most resources. whatever it is, google it and make sure its a safe program. i would check the top 3 processes in that manner.

Nothing extraordinary I have also checked the I/O reading,wrintign and csrss.exe seems like reading a lot but again pc lags also in other OS too so its very likely to be a hardware problem.
