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

    From what you’ve said elsewhere it likely is your HDD but it’s still good to take a look at your thermals. In HWInfo click the ‘Sensors’ button. It’ll bring up a fairly long list of different readings covering power usage, utilization, temperatures, and more. Scroll down until you see your CPU and Core temperatures. The 12th gen Intel CPUs have a max temperature rating of 100C and will cut power and clock speeds if that ceiling is being hit. If you see any cores bouncing off that number (or close to it) when under load you have a cooling problem. It should usually be much lower than that though. Depending on your ambient temperature, case, and cooling solution it could range anywhere from 25C to 50C at idle. With any minimally decent cooling setup and while under heavy load 80-90C can be considered normal but a good cooler will usually keep you under 80C, sometimes significantly.
