The problem began roughly a week ago. I began playing It Takes Two, which I’ve played before without any problems. I observed the game running extremely slow—about one action every ten seconds—and frequent freezes. After restarting, the performance improved significantly. Then I tried Call of Duty MW3; whenever I finish a match and return to the main lobby, my PC slows down considerably. It’s not happening every time, but it often enough to raise concerns. Even when the game is closed in Task Manager, my computer feels very sluggish. I also play a lot of SCUM and recall it once before the new Call of Duty release, but I can’t remember clearly because I was playing a lot earlier. This hasn’t been an issue before, but I’m wondering if a dusting might help. Any advice would be appreciated!
