DUDE, I had the same issue, I switched from a i7-4790k to the 16 Core Threadripper!

The PC was so slow in opening apps (chrome took 5-10 seconds to start)

I MANAGED TO FIX THE ISSUE BY INSTALLING THE SAMSUNG MAGICIAN SOFTWARE AND TURNING ON THE S.M.A.R.T TECHNOLOGY FOR MY SAMSUNG 860 SSD 1TB.

FUNNY THING: I contacted AMAZON.CA and told them that the performance of the threadripper was not as I expected (after 2 months of having the CPU)

the AMAZON rep was soo00o nice and gave me a full refund for both my CPU and Motherboard (~$1700) and told me that I DON'T EVEN HAVE TO SEND THE CPU AND MOTHERBOARD BACK!

GTFO. What that person engaged in like five different chats and didn't realize the dollar amounts you guys were working with? You lucky SOB.

So what did you do with the CPU and mobo?

LOL, I'm still using it - the instllation of the SAMSUNG MAGICIAN software and turning on SMART fixed my sluggish PC problem. I am using the money to buy a LENOVO X1 CARBON LOLOL. Thanks Amazon.
