Solved My old computer is slow like... need help to find out why.

When will you do the requested tests? It is the only way to find bad hardware or point to another cause.
Using Furmark is fine, if you new GPU fails, return for a new one. There is a temp monitor built in, don't let it pass 85C.

I hope hanging up your harddrives in rubber-bands for noise reasons isn't too harmful for the drives :S, but eh, rather silence than lasting drives.. :|
