Hey everyone, I've been seeing my Windows 7 systems act really sluggish in games lately. Games that used to run smoothly at 200/300fps now barely hit 60fps on the lowest settings. It's happening with both AMD and nVidia cards (HD7770, GT730). I've reformatted them, updated drivers, installed older versions, but it's still the same. Even my 590 model is now as slow as before. Recording with Dxtory cuts the frame rate to 13-15 on both dual-core (e6550) and quad-core (x3220) models, and it works the same when saving to the SSD (Samsung 840). Got any suggestions?

Minecraft is changing rapidly and now demands more than just a simple potato for smooth performance.

I just tried that as an illustration. Every game is doing it now. My 590, along with my sisters HD7770 and 730, are performing similarly across most titles, and DXT encoding keeps stuck at 14-15fps on all my systems—whether Core2Duos or i7s.

Hey, I’ve already done everything mentioned. You can find the details in the post. Also, make sure to update to version 10 before the free period ends—don’t want to be one of their early testers (especially on an RTM build). I’ve tried it already and it crashed completely.

Execute a malware scan using antimalware tools. Review your update history. Monitor Task Manager for unusual CPU and RAM consumption.

I've got everything in order. TaskMgr works well, and it's not being used much right now. Tomorrow I plan to remove the Windows updates to check if that improves things—maybe it's related.

In the past if the pc is slow and cpu ram gpu and all of that is fine it was always the harddrive, but you have a ssd. I dont know if ssd have the same issues as a traditional harddrive. You can run a benchmark on your ssd. I know Samsung ssd trend to be going slower while time passes.
