Ok all of this started when I bought my PC and opened it up around 6 months after..like now. The PC is made to my specifications it has a..
Core i7 4790 
Seagate 1 tera HDD
MSI N750
Kingston 8GB value RAM
MSI H177 (i think) Motherboard
Thermaltake 600 watt psu
Stock cooler and a Thermaltake Versa h16 Case
... I noticed that the shop didnt have a great job in cable management so i decided to go and try to manage the cables myself (I dont have an anti static collar btw), and took LInus' word for it to touch the PSU when u move. I got the job done like half way and stopped because I realized it's impossible for me to manage everything because i have no experience in making a PC. When i booted up the PC it ran super SLOW like it was running in slow motion or something, or had low frames.. this happens 2/3 times when i boot up.. when i restart it, it kinda fixes it, but i do have to do it like 3 time.. so I'm asking is this the static electricty's fault (and mine i know i suck), can i fix it? and what will i do? Thank you in advance.. You are welcome to be salty... I deserve it

No it isn't static electricity.

 

Let's go over the basics:

  1. Make sure that all cables are properly connected to each device. Maybe your HDD cable got partially disconnected and you have error correction going crazy.
  2. Make sure that all fans operates properly.
  3. Make sure your RAM is properly inserted.
  4. Make sure your monitor is connected to your graphics card, and not your motherboard.
