I bought a Samsung 860 Evo SSD yesterday. Ever since I plugged it in, I've been struggling to migrate my data from my HDD. So after watching a few tutorials, I downloaded EaseUS todo and started cloning my C: drive. At first, I was returned with an error that said : Failed to read sector...

My GPU will rapidly go from `20% usage to 0% usage when playing games causing the frames to also drop to 0 and continue at above 30 frames every few seconds. My CPU functions at ~50% all of the time. I've been told to bump up the games settings but that only made the GPU usage spike faster...

So my question is, would it be so bad to make a build with the Ryzen 2400g APU, and then separately save for the RX 580? Would the 2400g be good as a CPU once I get this discrete...
