[SOLVED] I installed an SSD and now my CPU is slow

[Machete2k]

I recently installed an 860 EVO Samsung SSD and now my CPU gets overloaded from everything. my pc is pretty good, I have a i7-9700k cpu, 2070 gtx, and 16 gigs of ram. before I installed I was getting over 200 frames on the game league of legends, and now im struggling to have 40 frames under the same settings. I also have an additional 5 terabyte HHD and a 500 GB SSD. any solutions would be appreciated, Thank you!

You seem to be chasing down the wrong path.

You need to actually discover why the system is "slow". Or "slower" than it was.

so do you agree with the ram Idea that the others proposed, provided this https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/38851036

I would check with some tool other than userbenchmark.

ooh, so its my ram sticks are the problem, I'll test some new ones when I get the chance

No need to do that. It's looking like you may have done something in the Bios or used a program to edit Bios settings. I would boot to Bios and load optimised defaults, restart, go back into Bios and enable XMP for your memory.

Use Cpuz to read memory speed under memory tab. Frequency should say 1600 if done correctly and ram are running at 3200.

alright I'll do that then, then I'll try reseating them if that doesnt work

Userbench can be useful for some things, quick glimps into what possibly might be going on. I find it's usually pretty correct with frequencies but if you want to verify ram speed properly, Cpuz will tell you.

You're welcome, that looks better. Though you could go a little higher and set ram to 3200. Looks like there's two XMP profiles, 3000 or 3200.

Other than that, looks like everything is good now? What exactly did you do, just to clarify?
