at first, what do u expect of the speed ? how laggy it is??

second try msconfig and disable unwanted program from the startup

let me put it this way
Every windows has to become uresponsiive for about 2 seconds a least before you can use it
and i mean when your going through dir's, between each one and the other this happens

ok so first off here is my computer specs

mobo asus p8 z77-v LX
intel i5-3570k quad core cpu
16 GB ram ( 2 set of 2 4gb sticks )
win7 64bit
ati hd 5450

i started without the ssd nor the gpu, preformance all around windows was laggy
about each window has to hang a bit

i thought it was a hdd problem so i got an ssd, no use
i thought it was a ram problem so i ran memtest86, everything is fine
i thought i had the cpu intalled in correctly, was fine aswell

what might be causing this ? i am going crazy over here ?!
can it be the mobo chipset ?

Messing with "Services"
ie you switched off a core service (whilst tinkering) - when you shouldn't have.

Malware

A Prog hogging all resources

One of the above may point you to right area

according to systemcare 6,
cpu is at 9%, ram at 14%....

ffs even chrome is lagging on a 16gb system....

is there any way to test the mobo ? it hard to find a test mobo with 3rd gen intel icore support

Take the system down to the lowest factor. Remove everything from the system that isn't required to boot and operate at the bare essential level.

mmmmm so just a mobo and cpu and 1 ram stick ? because thats all there is

did you check the start ups?
try the partition defragment, and organize your information in the directories, when its bunch of files in a folder windows would pre-read the information. organizing information helps its speed up, but 2 second for in each change!! strange
also check your hdd with error check

its on ssd.... i hardly think that a couple of startup apps are the problem, specially with 5 new installs...

dunno if this helps, but when i leave the pc for about 10 min or so, it becomes "normal" when i get back for about a minute before going back to laggy mode...

Can you run Windows Experience Index and post a screenshot of the results here?

Is the partition on your SSD properly aligned? You can run ASSSD benchmark a post screenshot here= (see that Steve already posted this).

Have you updated your graphics drivers?

ok i just did the assesment, its funny
my intel hd4000 used to get 5.6, i added my old hd ati hd 5450 it went down to 4.2
