So I decided to upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 8 because of Halo 5 forge and oh my god it went from super fast on Windows 8 to super slow on Windows 10

i can't even watch YouTube

So is there anyway I could fix that?

 

My Specs:

MSI 970 Gaming Mobo

AMD FX-8350

16GB Hyper Fury X RAM @ 1600MHz

MSI GTX 750 ti 2GB

2TB Seagate HDD

Fresh install into, forbid Windows to grab every kind of data without to ask, into update everything (OS wise), into download all needed drivers.

Than it's fine.

Remember that when you upgrade Windows, you need to re-install all your drivers again (see it as a clean install, but your stuff are kept. Drivers not on Windows Update (or old) aren't installed). Many times generic drivers won't give you the performance the hardware is designed to provide. And the built-in drivers in Windows 10 are now old. So it is best to upgrade everything. Keep in

Well, first off the 9xx series chipset doesn't support Windows 10...  Additionally don't do a upgrade do a clean install.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

Definitely agree with those saying clean install, I accidentally forgot to after upgrading (activation crap before they took win7/8 keys) and it left windows 8 code in the OS and had things bugging out.

Redo-Drivers. Try that if you don't want to do a clean install. Also when reinstalling (if you do) don't use express settings, use custom and turn everything off.
