Windows 7 Ultimate x64 performance problems. Need any help.
Hello. Three days ago I installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on my PC. I've had the x32 version for half a year and I wanted to install the x64 one. After I did, I noticed a slight performance loss in games like Minecraft, Warframe and such. These worked fine on my old Windows x32. I proceeded to install every single update found in Windows Update and installed drivers for every device I had, including the graphics card. Still, in games I get random lag spikes every 2 or so seconds that last less than a second but are kind of annoying. I proceeded to download Java 32x for my browser (Mozilla Firefox) and Java 64x for Minecraft. I talked to Microsoft Tech Support Desk and they ran a Windows Fix It tool on my desktop. That finished fast and the info was sent to Microsoft, and after all of that, the performance drop is quite visible and hasn't gotten better. I should mention that I have 3GB of RAM that worked fine with x32 Windows and that I tried scanning for viruses, CCleaner, searching for more updates, safe mode driver reinstallation and nothing.
If anyone has anything helpful to suggest, please leave it below.
