Computer suddenly turning slow
I could not find the model list for my laptop, but I have an Asus k501U
- Intel core i7 6500U
- 8GB RAM
- 1TB HDD + 128G SSD
- Intel Integrated graphics + Geforce FTX 950M
I was playing league during the night in a hot room, so my laptop has reached a pretty high temperature. However, my game was smooth and laptop was still running smoothly. After I shut it down for the night and boot it up the next morning, the entire laptop turns extremely slow and freezing. Anything I try to open will take minimum 10 minutes and become unresponsive. I downloaded Throttlestop and noticed I have the "thermal" limit under CPU and GPU and ProcHot was activated. I unchecked the Prochot box and cleaned my laptop's fan, but that hasn't made anything faster. I have also ran multiple Malwarebytes and found nothing and did a CCleaner, but still the same result.
Please help, how does my laptop suddenly turn permanently slow like this and how do I go back to its original speed. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hi,
Check in Event Viewer (right click on Win start button - left side of Taskbar- and click on Event Viewer link) to see if there are any Critical, Error or Warning events listed that may give an indication of some problem
Try starting the laptop in safe mode (assuming you have Win 10 installed) and see if the performance improves.
If it does it points to a software problem, if it doesn't it is most likely hardware related.
