I have had my PC for two years this month and have had absolutely no problems with it as far as performance. On 2/5 I unplugged external speakers and had to restart the computer to get it to re-recognize them and I have had the problem since (only thing I can think of). After 10-15 minutes after start up everything starts to lag. Not severely, but enough to notice - the start menu is very slow, minimizing and expanding windows is choppy and delayed and my mouse even seems to be a little unresponsive. I play League of Legends several times a day and have never had fps issues but can't play without 20-25 fps. It began after 5 or so minutes ingame. I thought that League was causing the lag somehow but all other games are extremely MORE laggy than League, to the point of not being able to play anything. I repaired the client as well.
There is nothing strange in my registry that I can see, I've turned off unnecessary processes, scanned with antiviruses (CCleaner, avast, malwarebytes) to no avail and reinstalled my graphics card driver. There are no strange process being run in Task Manager at all. I have not done a system restore. I have tried several restarts and my boyfriend cleaned the machine of dust yesterday. No change.
My specs are:
Windows 8 v6.2 (build 9200) 64bit
i5 3350P CPU @ 3.10GHz
8 GB ram
Thanks for any help!
