Hello, everyone. I just got a new computer but my illustrator is super slow. Whenever i zoom in it takes like 3 seconds. Whenever i grab my hand tool and navigate around the design it lags. Also my mouse cursor freezes and gets all choppy around the screen for a few seconds.
Im not working with big files either. The files im working on are like 2,3 MB.
I check the task manager when this happens and the processor ram and disk are using very minimal resources.
Does anybody know how i can fix this or make it faster. I thought by getting a new computer with the below specs my illustrator would feel faster.
- Intel Xeon E5-2609 v4 Processor
- Windows 10 Pro OS
- 32 GB RAM
- 512 GB SSD Ram
- AMD Radeon HD 7700 1GB

How to set preferences in Illustrator
Fist of all I would try and connect a printer. If you don't have one, set up a PDF printer. This has solved this kind of issue for a lot of people.

Is that High Sierra on it?
Your issue is the slowdown, right?
Can you try and turn off the Microphone and Dictation features?
Is a printer connected and turned on?
Do you save your files locally?
Also:
Try and delete the preferences
