I recently put together a new build some old parts, but new motherboard, cpu, and NVME.

Sometimes the issue presents itself and startup, other times it takes longer to appear. The entire system will get extremely slow like it would if you had 100% cpu usage, but usage is always very low 1-5%. I have done multiple re-installs of Windows 10, but issue persists. I have updated all drivers, and updated to the latest BIOS for my motherboard. I have eliminated RAM unless every stick is bad. I have had issue occur while running just 1 stick of my 4 sticks of RAM, and I did this for all 4 sticks issue occurred with all 4. I have eliminated hard drive because issue occurs on the NVME listed and on a 1 TB Samsung 850 EVO that I tested on as well. I am also fairly confident I have eliminated software. I used my pc in Safe mode networking for a whole day and the issue occurred there as well. I have also in my latest attempt to test not installed any programs other than Google chrome on this install of windows, and the issue still occurs. I ran OCCT monitoring software to see if there were voltage drops when the issue occurs, but the voltages are the same whether I am experiencing the lag or not. I have power settings set to AMD High performance, and fast startup turned off. I am at my whits end and do not know what else to try. It seems like my processor just intermittantly runs extremely slow. I was convinced this was a software issue, but after multiple re-installs and witnessing the issue in safe mode, I fear it is my cpu as the cpu and motherboard are the only new pieces to the equation that I can't eliminate because I don't have another motherboard cpu combo that is compatible with these two to switch out interchangeably. Please help if you have any suggestions.
Thanks.
