Jul 27, 2013 - Hi, I remember when I was younger, it always used to be that installing many games on a PC will slow it down. Are things still the same? Why is my computer is running slow when gaming? My computer runs slow when playing graphics intensive games. Symptoms are a low fps, and a lot of lag. With modest gaming capabilities. But, yes get the background processes & programs down to free memory. I always run a gaming rig with a stripped down operating system to free up resources. So recently i've been experiencing a problem with my PC where every time i download a game on Steam & or Origin my pc gets extremely slow till the point where its not even usable, this.
Hello Bleeping Computer,
This is my first post, so hopefully I'm in the right place to get some help.
After getting Virgin to give us a new router for the nth time, we now have quick broadband around the house. Yesterday I did a speedtest on my Macbook and recorded 210Mb/s, which for wifi is awesome.
However I also have a portable PC that runs Windows 10 and is a complete pig when it comes to download speeds. In testing it could only manage about 14Mb/s, and that was when it was hard-wired to the router!
It has plenty of spare memory and works fine as long as the internet isn't involved. I've run CCleaner and Malwarebytes scans, neither of which made any noticeable difference to download speed test results.
Now I know that 14Mb/s is lightning fast in some parts of the globe, but the actual user experience is just dead slow - typically it takes over 30 seconds for the browser to load (regardless of which browser I'm using), then opening new sites takes a further chunk of circulating arrow time.
I'm using Panda's free antivirus - I don't know if that's a good or bad thing - although the PC is really only used in client meetings (I work from home) to look at their websites and demonstrate stuff in Google Adwords and Analytics.
Any suggestions as to what might be causing the issue will be gratefully accepted.

Thanks in anticipation!
