So I recently built a new pc
fx8320
samsung 120gb ssd
8gb crucial ballistixs ram 1600mhz
gtx 580 1.5 gb
windows 8.1
and it is rediculusly slow and I know it's not my internet connection because I play online games, download movie, and stream netflix just fine on my console (ps3). I recently installed the latest drivers for my motherboard, but that didnt seem to help. So I was wondering if you guys could let me know all the tricks To get my computer running as smooth as it should be. Some other info that might help I've got my pc hooked up to my hd tv via the graphics card with a dvi to hdmi converter. Also I have a 1TB wd blue hdd drive but due to limited sata cables I had to unplug it so I could use my optical drive to install windows. when I installed windows I just pick the quick settings I didnt do anything custom if that matters. Any help would be really appreciated.
