So a little while ago my pc just stopped running games, it would crash when I tried to play any game that was even slightly taxing on my pc. And my pc is quite good. 16gb RAM, GTX 1070, I7 6700K.
I'm no expert and din't know what the Issue was so I just stopped playing, I din't play much anyway. A little while later my SSD failed so I assumed that was the problem. Now I run everything on an HDD and it's VERY slow, games are the same, still crash almost immediately and it's not like an error message crash, It freezes my whole PC.
Anyway I want to play games again and I think that if I just buy a new SSD it will fix my issue? Any help or suggestions would be awesome guys.
PS. I also do have a 4k screen and back then had a 2k screen, could be that it's too much for a HDD to handle as I can just about play some older games on lower settings without crashing. Games like Total War Rome II
