increadible lag

[Mr.NoobPC]

Hello, I have a gaming pre-built pc, I got it two years ago and now I find it hard to play any game no matter the intensity of it(but my most common are Apex and Overwatch 2) when I play them lag is so bad I can hardly move or see. I don't know if this helps but I have a Ryzen 5 3600, 16gb of corsair vengeance rgb pro(Installed yesterday) and a ryzen GPU don't really know what to try next. help greatly appreciated!

It would help if you could tell us which GPU you have. Assuming everything is working right, it sounds like you probably don't have a very robust GPU.
