Hey guys so I made my computer that I currently have back in 2013. Everything was good, games ran with no lag and the internet browsing was quick. Recently about 1 week ago my computer seem to really slow down in everything it was doing. After playing 110+ hours of GTA 5 on the highest settings now when I try to play my computer cant keep up with the game and things fail to render, and the game is nearly unplayable. Minecraft went from me playing on highest settings with 250+ fps to now playing on average settings with 32 fps. Here are the things I'm sure of. The only thing that has significantly changed is the big switch from windows 7 to windows 10. The weird part of it is once I switched to windows 10 I stilled played over 30 hours before experiencing this. Internet browsing has become very slow when opening websites or even watching live streams. Multitasking is also very very slow to the point I dont even want to have more than 3 tabs open at a time whereas I used to go crazy with the amount of windows I would have open at once. Here is a list of things I've tried and things I'm sure of.
1. My graphics card is being recognized by the computer (So its not installed wrong) and the drivers are completely up to date.
2. Windows is 100% up to date.
3. I've done a full Norton scan of my computer along with me being very careful and cautious about viruses and whatnot.
4. There are no other tasks running in the background
I really don't know what to do at this point. Any suggestions would be helpful even if you're not sure it will fix my computer. I'm really tempted to go back to windows 7 as I had no problems when using it. Thank you.
