It’s been 3 months since I have my new pc :

Intel Core i5-12400F 6 Cores, 2,5GHz

16GB of RAM

Geforce RTX 3060

The thing is, everything I do on my computer is so slow ! I freeze and crash everytime I switch between my different programs, everytime I try to launch a game, everytime I make something on my computer!

More than that, when I look at the task manager with steam, browser and discord open the cpu use doesn’t even reach 20%!

Everytime I launch a game that use a lot of ram and cpu I make sure to close my browser and every other useless programs but nothing helps!

Please tell me someone have a solution cause I feel like using a janky computer while it’s completely new.

The first one is my browser

    I had my pc built by LDLC (french company)they are really professionnal and are well known I don’t think it would be the issue

    I run Windows on HDD and have Linux on SSD but SSD with a lot of space is so expensive ! The thing is everybody in the comments are talking about SSD and it’s making me nervous gif

      SSD with a lot of space expensive? What do you see as a lot of space? Like 1 TB goes a long way and that cost 40 € which for pc parts is not expensive at all.

      Cherche pas plus loin, faut pas faire tourner Windows sur ton hdd, ça pue la merde.

      Un ssd de 500gb c’est à peine 30 balles par contre, pourquoi tu dis que c’est cher ?

      500gb c’est largement suffisant pour Windows, tes fichiers tu les stockes sur le hdd.

      While running Windows on an HDD will certainly make everything very slow and it’s a fact, it will not introduce freezes(at least long ones) and crashes. Sounds like your Windows installation might be borked or your hardware is not stable.

      If I were you, I would start with a clean Windows install, including the complete wipe of your system drive.

      A 500gb ssd is like $25 USD. You can keep the hard drive for general storage, but don’t put the os or commonly used programs on it.
