Aug 11, 2016 at 19:58 comment added Animatoring I was pretty surprised about the lag too, I just upgraded about a month ago. The HDD said the model was: ST1000DM003-1SB102. The mac had a hdd.

Aug 11, 2016 at 17:05 comment added Argonauts You should try the resmon test and see what the bottleneck is. If its the hdd it might be a good idea to run a benchmark and health check on it. What's the make model of the hdd? Its entirely possible it has issues - you have a nice PC and the delays you are talking about seem unreasonable even with a hdd.
Aug 11, 2016 at 13:42 comment added Animatoring The Mac generally could open larger programs quickly but when working in them it could lag or lockup (it seems to do this more than the pc). Even smaller programs or an internet browser would work slowly on the mac once open. If there are any other spec that would be helpful let me know. Thanks! : )

Aug 11, 2016 at 13:37 comment added Animatoring Thanks for the help everyone! Unfortunately I just upgraded my computer so I'll probably have to wait on the SSD for awhile but I'll definitely consider it as an upgrade in the future. One thing I noticed is smaller programs will open quickly but larger ones will lag. I use my computer for design work with zBrush, Blender, Photoshop, etc. I normally usually use only one at a time because of the weight is has on the computer. Although once the program launches you are usually good, it works pretty well, it's mainly just when the program launches. It closes quickly.
