Hello everyone, so as of about the beginning of this week I was noticing some issues with my components on my desktop running windows 7.The issue is:My computer loads into the internet, videos, games, and everything a lot slower, sometimes not even at all. I used to be able to click on a link or on a random video on Youtube and INSTANTLY be there.Now it takes at least 15 seconds for me to load, buffer the video, and start watching, sometimes the video lags, other times the audio starts before the video. I really need help. It's not my internet, definitely a component issue, I have run every test I could. I have tried everything in my power to diagnose the problem and figure out how to fix it, but the issue is that I still don't know what it could be. I have spoken with many friends who are more knowledgeable than I am, and the only things I was told to do , were things like defrag my HDD, clean it, scan my computer, so on and so forth. I was told that re-formatting my HDD would probably fix this problem, but I don't want to go through all that time and trouble again if it can be avoided. I made multiple posts to reddit.com/r/techsupport , where I got absolutely no help at all. link here if you want to check it if I missed anything:https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/3ujxzy/need_help_with_componentsrepost_after_no_help/
So I have been in desperate need of help and I don't even know what to do anymore.
My specs are: ASUS R9290x GFX card, an Intel I7 4790K quad core CPU,Asrock Fatal1ty Killer z97 motherboard,2 TB WD HDD, running windows 7, and I have comcast ISP directly connected into a netgear nighthawk router with ethernet
 
Have you checked in task manager to see what processes are running and under the performance tab, cpu and ram usage? Have you disabled the pagefil? It should be set to system managed size. Do you have a lot of programs load at startup? Have you checked temperatures on the CPU and GPU? Run Memtest? Download and run Slimdrivers and update any recommended drivers. If you would, also download and run speccy and post the results page here, it might show us something.

I already tried Speccy, but then again you probably could know more with this information than I could. I don't quite understand what you meant by the results page so I took the Summary page here: Operating System
Windows 7 Professional 64-bit SP1
CPU
Intel Core i7 4790K @ 4.00GHz 27 °C
Haswell 22nm Technology
RAM
8.00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz (11-11-11-28)
Motherboard
ASRock Z97 Killer (CPUSocket) 29 °C
Graphics
S241HL (1920x1080@60Hz)
4096MB ATI AMD Radeon R9 200 Series (ASUStek Computer Inc) 36 °C
Storage
1863GB Western Digital WDC WD20EFRX-68EUZN0 SCSI Disk Device (SATA) 28 °C
Optical Drives
ASUS DRW-24B1ST i SCSI CdRom Device
Audio
Logitech G35 Headset
as for the performance, this is what I found to be the average https://gyazo.com/3562bb170cd7eb9d0e075d5273bc8903

As for the pagefil, I'm not all too sure about what that is so I will try to google it and find out. Not many programs start up with my OS, just steam and skype and spotify.Other than those 3, the rest come after, whenever I choose them. UPDATE: I checked around about pagefile and found out some stuff, but still unsure about how to disable it, here was the result. https://gyazo.com/48fc9990bf6289d0128b42bd1d906fea
 


No I have 2 sticks, how can i change that?

Alright, I'll try this now, thank you!
 


No, it seems that the RAM wasn't the main issue. The issue dealing with loading in a lot slower is still occurring. I have had my RAM like that since I built this computer (like the idiot I am) and so since the issue only recently arose I cannot even fathom what it could be.
