My PC is performing VERY slow

Hello Guys, My computer is acting very slow. I can't exactly diagnose the reason why. My current hunch is that I need to reinstall my OS. However I'm here to see if there is anything else I should investigate before I do. 

 

My Ram is fine. I have plenty of storage and I don't think I have a virus or anything of that sort. Before I had this current system on a much older system (with the same OS install) I was running into a similar issue. 

 

I would really appreciate any feedback or assistance.

Thank you in Advance.

It will be impossible to help you without specifics.

 

1. What are your full system specs?

 

2. What is the system doing specifically that makes it seem to be running slow? For example, is it a game performance issue, or is it boot and load times?

reinstall Windows leave *everything* at default,  no XMP, no OC, nothing.  

 

Seems obvious your current OS is bugged.

My System starts up very slow it takes minutes to boot. Once I'm into my system it just lags and takes forever to load up applications for like a good 5minutes. Whenever I go into my search bar on my taskbar it lags & processes before it shows anything. 

 

 

 

 

My current PC specs are:

 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5600

RAM: 32gb 3200mhz

GPU: 3060ti 

MOBO: MSI gaming gen 3

Storage 500gb ssd (boot drive)

2tb Hybrid Drive and a 2TB HDD
