I have an AMD Phenom II X6 1090t CPU on an ASUS motherboard. I built the machine myself (first one, though I have repaired broken parts on many machines prior to building this one).
I have always thought it should be faster than it is. Initially, I thought it might be slow because I had set up a RAID 1 array for my main system disk. I have removed the mirror and it is still running slower than I think it should.
The CPU benchmark returned a value of 2712. The online list shows that this CPU should return a value of 5716.
In fact, it's not just the CPU that is slower than the online lists suggest. The video and memory tests are much slower than expected, too.
What diagnostic steps should I take to try and determine why this machine is slow?
Thank you very much for any guidance you can provide.

Just noticed the Causes and Solutions for a Slow PC. Let me check that out...
