Not printing detail/overhang well

Hi! 

I got a used Prusa MK3S last month and have been printing a lot. I needed to replace the hot end because one of the wires broke off. I used a 3rd party hot end off of amazon. It has the same nozzle size and material and looks almost identical. After I replaced the hot end I got the "THERMAL ANOMALY" error. I recalibrated Thermal Mode then it was printing without errors. I attached some pictures of prints before and after I replaced the hot end.  It seems like it isn't printing any small details or overhang very well. I used the pre set PLA settings for all the prints. Any ideas on what might be happening?
