Recently I have noticed that my computer has substantially slowed down over the past few months. The start up time is slower, the opening of software such as video games and browsers has slowed down as well. Download speeds have slowed down (5mb/s->3mb/s) Is there anything that could possibly be slowing down my computer that I could fix? I recently factory reset it to new, I am running Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate. Here are my specs;
Intel i5 - 4670K @ 3.4GHz
Z87 Asus Motherboard
8 GB of RAM
1000 GB Harddrive
EVGA GeForce GTX 760

As you use the computer over time, programs are installed that utilize system resources. Also - the internet temporary files needs to be purged once in a while also. CCleaner will take care of the internet speed slowing down - depending upon what was installed on the PC - reloading the OS often helps to speed things up.

I typically reinstall the OS about every 12-18 months.
