I would run ccleaner, and with this tool you can do a number of things such as clean temp files, clean the registry, turn off startup items that run in the background, etc, it is a free program that you can download. I would run a windows defrag to see how fragmented the files are. The more fragmented the files are the slower the computer will run.

there are four ways for you to go -
CPU
RAM
Disk
Network
out of which you already checked CPU and RAM. Also check for disk I/O or any network connections. Other than this local firewall or antivirus might be a culprit (you might want to disable them for some time and check the performance.)
