There are many reasons for your computer to be running slow that is not related to the specific hardware. Any added Anti-Virus or Cleaner apps can severly slow down performance as well as any third party software installed to run on startup.


The diagnostic utility EtreCheck is used frequently on these forums to evaluate your hardware as well as software installed that could be slowing your Mac down. You can post the report here using the Additional Text option when posting.
