My PC has been running slow recently

What have you done to troubleshoot the problem? A system showing signs of weak is usually software related, not hardware. Is the CPU clock speed dropping?

 

If you did need a CPU upgrade, the ryzen 5 2600 is the best bang for buck you'd get.

I have been gaming recently on my Ryzen 3 2200g and the Nvidia geforce gtx 1050ti (msi aero). My PC has been running slow recently and I think it's the processor. I am not sure. Please help me.

BTW Heres the rest of my parts:

MSI B350M Pro VH Plus

8gb of g-skill RAM

500gb ssd

My budget is $200. 

Thanks.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

I have done a few things, like benchmarking to see different strengths in my pc, but nothing to try an optimize it.

So the CPU is running normally, it's just not enough for the games you play? What are some of the games you play where the CPU is holding you back?

I'm sure it is. The cpu it's self seems like it runs ok, but I can't play ark and warframe very well.

 

Yes Warframe does like more CPU to run better. In that case an upgrade to a Ryzen 5 2600 is recommended. Do you also have some high speed dual channel memory?

Ryzen improves performance with memory bandwidth, get a second ram dimm of the same speed and see if your performance improves a lot.
