Here, it should be ‘fast enough’ instead of ‘enough fast’.

  • The rule of Enough :
    • Enough is used as an adjective & Adverb 
      • If it is used as an adjective then add before noun but if it used as an adverb then use it after adjectives 
      • Enough + Noun ( He has enough money) (Acting as an adjective)
      • Adjective + Enough (He runs fast enough) ( Acting as an adverb)
  • The adverb ‘enough’ is always placed after the word that it modifies.
  • Here, 'fast' is used as an adjective.
  • 'Fast' is also used as an adverb.
Hence, the correct sentence will be - My laptop was not running fast enough, so I could not submit the assignment before the deadline.
