drowning in vague "PC is slow" tickets even with decent monitoring in place

We've got solid RMM and Intune setup, patching is current, and hardware isn't ancient on most machines. Yet every week I still get a pile of "computer is just slow today" or "everything lags" tickets that take forever to troubleshoot because there's no clear smoking gun in the usual logs.

Resource Monitor and Event Viewer usually show something minor spiking at the exact wrong time (AV scan overlapping with OneDrive sync, or a policy refresh hitting during peak hours), but by the time the user reports it the moment has passed. It's just frustrating, takes up a lot of my day.
