Budget (including currency): Country: usa Games, programs or workloads it serves: cod, Fortnite, Counter-Strike, farm sim Other details: ASUS B650M-A AX II motherboard, Ryzen 5 7600X, RTX 3060 12GB GPU, 32GB SSD Skill Flare 5, Inland 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD, Windows 11 Pro Help Please, he chose the most suitable components we assembled it on Christmas Day. It runs slower than some of my older laptops from over five years ago. The OS feels laggy, and games sometimes crash or fail to load. BIOS updated, clean ISO used, all parts brand new, RAM activated in BIOS. Temperatures never exceed 54°C for the CPU or GPU regardless of usage. Need advice on what might have gone wrong with my son’s setup.

Have you tested 3DMark or other tests to see how it compares with others? Its specs look good, so it’s worth checking its performance.

You purchased an internal SSD and ran a test benchmark such as CrystaldiskMark. It’s likely you’ll get poor performance.

Both options are required; the system will fail to start without them. While some GPUs can operate without PCIe power, this is rare.

Do you have multiple cores on your CPU? Which Cinebench version is installed? The 2024 release might be better, and a 3DMark test could provide a clearer picture if your CPU or GPU isn't performing well.
