Hey, so I built a PC about 6 years ago, and I could really use some advice on what the best upgrade for my GPU would be. I would like to start playing games on high and potentially stream a little as well. I plan on getting a 144hz monitor along with this upgrade. Price range from 200-300 would...

If I've got a 3 Gbps SATA-2 port on my PC then does it matter what SATA-3 SSD I choose? (SanDisk SSD plus, Kingston a400, wd blue, crucial mx 500 &Samsung 860 Evo) for performance? Will a top end SSD still beat a budget SSD on SATA-2?

I installed a game, that i played before, ( Kingdom Come : Deliverance) and i noticed that i dont have the fps that i had before, from 50-60 i had 15-30, if i used alt+enter to switch between borderless and fullscreen, then, i had my usual fps. How do i make that 100% cpu go away, i guess...

Normally when you turn on your computer windows loads and all that and takes you to the login screen where you put in your password. For me, instead of going to a lock screen, there is just a black screen with nothing else. My second monitor doesn’t even turn on.
