does windows update slow computers down even if it`s set to download recommended?
While you are actually downloading and intstallin the updates the computer will slow down. The exception would be if you have excess resources, such as memory.
Windows 7 has minimum requirements to work properly. For example 2 GB of RAM for Windows 7, 64 bit to work properly. If you have the minimum of 2 GB you will slow down since resources are being used.
If you are downloading updates and playing a resource hungry game, for example, yes you will slow down.
I did not understand your original question, I am sorry. Some updates, may use some resources such as RAM and there may be a slight slow down. It would be negligible and should not even be noticed.
