I’m seeing some really sluggish performance now that I installed a new SSD and did a fresh Windows reinstall.
I’m seeing some really sluggish performance now that I installed a new SSD and did a fresh Windows reinstall.
I have a dell inspiron 7567
Specs:
intel core i7-7700HQ
8gb ram kingston
1050ti
The laptop is 2 years old and hasn't had a thermal paste change, so that's probably one of the reasons the performance has turned to crap. But yesterday I put in an m.2 nvme 512GB SSD and everything was fine. When I started the pc up today I had much worse performance in League of Legends and Unturned, both games played the day before without issues. I did a clean install of windows that went like this:
Legacy boot usb drive -> SSD wasn't popping up in partitions -> went to bios and changed settings from RAID to AHCI -> go to install windows again SSD now being accessible, made partitions and couldn't install windows on the ssd because of 'gpt style partition' -> opened up CMD and cleaned both disks then installed windows 10 on the ssd. -> Downloaded everything on the ssd, discord, steam, unturned, league of legends. But performance is absolutely crap now, basically twice as bad LoL from 80 to 35-45 fps which go down to 7 fps at times and unturned with 20 fps.
I tried downloading geforce experience and updating drivers, changing power satings to "high performance" but still no difference. I can only assume i haven't installed the SSD properly or misunderstand how the compatibility between all the parts work. Would be grateful for any tips.
The ssd is some random chinese brand

It probably just means the graphics drivers aren’t set up correctly. It sounds like your computer is defaulting to the built-in graphics card instead of the GT 1050 Ti.
