I just built a computer and I'm having a great deal of lag when doing just normal every day things in windows.
Computer:
Asus Maximus VIII Extreme.
Intel 6700k - Liquid Cooled.
3600 DDR4 - extra air cooling.
EVGA 980 ti hybrid - Liquid cooled.
Intel 750 PCIe SSD 400GB - Windows 10 Clean installed via USB UEFI boot setup
SAMSUNG 850 SSD 250GB - Windows installed from 7.0 to 10.00 via free update.
Installed the 750 SSD on the 4th PCIe 2x/4x slot and made sure it was locked onto 4x. This deactivated the shared SATA6 port on my board but that's handled as everything is using the other channels. The SSD is the only thing on that channel and running at full speed as far as I can tell at around 2,600mbps with benchmarks.
The Graphics card is in Slot one on the 16x channel, so it shouldn't be affecting anything as it's also on it's not being shared.
That's probably all the pertinent information on my setup. Everything is running and cool.
When I boot off the Samsung SSD. the system runs great. Nice and smooth as is expected.
When I boot off the Intel PCIe SSD...
1) it take s little longer to load which I wasn't expecting. maybe an extra 10 to 15 seconds or 30%?. (I've been reading this may be expected)
2) The main issue is that it lags and stutters a lot of the time. Moving windows around and such... they trail behind and catch up. stuttering and creating lines (tearing) across the graphics. Programs lagging and taking along time to load up. just a general feeling that the computer is struggling to do even simple things when I put off the Intel SSD.
I already downloaded the toolbox version 3.3.3. latest drivers are installed.
Bios is up to date to the latest version on the Motherboard and Hard Drive Firmware.
All PCIe slots are running on 3.0
Any direction on this? I can't fathom how it's working so poorly... I'm not seeing this complaint as I search the internet or forums...
