I get immense amounts of lag not only in games(TF2, CS:GO. Minecraft) but in general. I don't have any viruses or malware on my computer and I don't have many programs installed either. I don't know if my computer's just slow because of the specs or if something else is wrong. If someone could help me with some of the most common things that can slow down a PC that would be great. As well as how fast computer is. Thanks! :D

Forgot to mention that I have a laptop, but no the fans aren't always running. Only when there are a large number of applications open. Is my computer just slow in general?
