I assembled my PC in November, so it’s still relatively new. Every component was purchased brand new, with no used parts. I’ve observed some lag during the initial minutes or two of startup. Could this be due to programs launching at boot, or is there another cause? Thank you for your help in identifying the issue.

Purchase an SSD. The hard drive is quite slow. Your applications could also be resource-heavy. Review this section:

It's not extremely slow, but it doesn't perform as quickly as an SSD.
