I know everything plays a part in the overall speed and performance of a computer, but exactly what makes a computer significantly slower/faster when installing a program?
COMPUTER A (1 hour): core i7 7700HQ, 1TB HDD, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD
COMPUTER B (2.5 hours): core i5 7300HQ, 1TB HDD, 8GB RAM
I know it's probably not the RAM, because neither computer's memory was maxed out.
I wasn't installing the program on the SSD of computer A.
The difference in time is definitely expected. But I'm not sure why there was such a big difference. Computer B has been acting up recently, getting stuck when watching videos on youtube. So I'm not sure if it's because of that, or if it's really because of the hardware differences.
