I built myself a new machine at the weekend from a mixture of new and second hand parts acquired on Ebay. The machine is running without errors but feels very sluggish for the spec that it has. The components are;
i5-2500K (not O/C'd)
ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3
8Gb DDR3 1600
500Gb 7200RPM HDD
I purchased a GT440 Graphics card, but this appears to be faulty so is not currently part of the system.
I ran a PassMark test yesterday and got a system score of 1463 which has confirmed my thoughts.
Can you please give me any advice as to how to troubleshoot where the root of this low speed is?
Thanks
