General system slowdown is rarely the cause of hardware. If your GPU was failing you’d know immediately it was the GPU because gpus tend to die one of two ways

1) artifacts on the screen 

2) black screen hard crashes 

 

With a fresh windows install I would be more concerned over ram or a drive being the culprit, or some issue with windows itself. Taking dells bloatware out of the question would be suspect number one but with a clean install that’s presumably not the case.

there's no bloat the gpu just came from a dell oem that he got off ebay

Why would it be a GPU? Probably bad internet and/or background tasks. Check task manager when the fans ramp up or the PC slows down.
