    After my clean install on an ssd, my cpu (i5 2520) has been underperforming like crazy, i remember when i had an hdd, the windows rating index was like 6.2-6.7 but now its only 5.7, i know it doesnt matter much but simple things like youtube videos are lagging too
    i have 6gb ram and a 128gb samsung 830 additionally
