I'd say the GTX 960 is unlikely to be the bottleneck. Plasma really does not need a recent GPU.

@leopold That's the thing though, I built the current PC during the pandemic and crypto craze. Everything is relatively new, except the GPU, because I couldn't afford one, but I needed a better CPU for audio recording and editing.

do you use an SSD? from my experience, that can make a really big difference with Plasma

When was the last time you used KDE? It's been able to run on low-spec machines since KDE4 which about a decade old
