Question My computer randomly started going slower

[nikita07]

So i'm a gamer and i usually watch Netflix or YouTube while gaming, recently over the past week or so my browser has been lagging while gaming. which it did not use to have this issue
(to clarify it happens when loading new maps or just running around in games, which my computer is more than capable of running at max)

any ideas would be great

I7-4770k
16g ram (vengence)
asus sabortooth mb
2060 gpu
win 10

(lags on moz and chrome)

if you need more info let me know!

What storage devices do you have? ssd or hdd? what brands?

I assume maps loading from storage and not lan, as otherwise check Asus motherboard web site and make sure you have latest lan drivers.
