I'm generally pretty good at troubleshooting computers, but this one has me stumped.
I recently built my new gaming computer and it runs great... after I restart it. I turn it off at night, when I turn it back on it runs horribly. Browsers lag, games run low FPS etc. If I then restart the computer, runs perfectly. This is pretty consistent too, I'd say 80% of startups require an immediate restart before the computer works right (making it even harder to troubleshoot, since sometimes it doesn't happen at all). Nothing stands out in the Event Viewer, no hard crashes or anything like that, fully updated drivers and such. Can't quite track down what is causing this. Even typing this post, it is buffering 2-3 words as I type it.
What differences are there in the way Windows starts from powered off compared to a restart?
Doesn't seem hardware related, but the specs if anyone thinks it will help:
Ryzen 5 3600
RTX 2070 Super
MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus mobo (updated BIOS)
Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB 3600
Samsung 970 EVO Plus M.2 500GB (Windows drive)
Seagate 2TB HDD
Windows 10 Home
