Questions

Why does my new gaming PC run worse than expected?

Often the memory is running below its rated speed, or the monitor is plugged into the motherboard instead of the graphics card.

Do I need to reinstall Windows to fix game crashes?

Rarely. Drivers, game files and settings fix most crashes.
