I recently started having performance issues with my custom setup and i have had it for 8-ish months. Games like Rainbow Six Siege and Warframe will experience major frame drops and i have never had this issue before and i cant figure out whats wrong with it. In the task manager it uses over 70% CPU and almost 100% memory. I have scanned for Viruses and nothing comes up. Please help idk what to do.


Specs.
AMD Ryzen 5 1500x oc to 3.7
Corsair Vengeance lpx 8gb
GTX 1050ti 4gb
1TB Seagate HDD

Stop any & all additional background processes that aren't necessary.
Update your OS, BIOS, & all drivers.

On a side note, if you get some extra cash, invest in an SSD for your OS drive & use the HDD as storage only. Seriously, this makes a huge difference
