Hey, I see you're dealing with a performance issue where your PC feels like it's running on a slow presentation. It seems the problem started after upgrading your graphics card and even after checking drivers and restarting. Since your specs are pretty standard, the lag might be linked to resource contention or outdated software. You might want to test with a different browser or check for background processes that could be hogging resources. Let me know if you'd like help troubleshooting further.
it's also important to mention that the CPU usage is very high and the GPU is fully utilizing 3D resources even when running Roblox. This has never happened before—it began immediately after I powered on the PC with the new graphics card. Added more details: observed performance spikes, unexpected resource consumption patterns, and a clear need for optimization.
I've run multiple virus scans using Norton and Windows Defender, and everything looks clear. I'm going to try reseating the graphics card in its slot. It's unclear if this will help, but I used the same connector as my 4060, so it might not be the problem.
During installation, I noticed the GPU shifted slightly, about half a centimeter, with a small gap of roughly a quarter inch between the GPU IO plate and the case plate. The case plate includes these parts.
