Hello

I have a problem with my pc, basically my computer once in a 2 weeks it freezes and I have to restart it and it works. Can anyone tell me what's happening? I think it's my HDD coming into an end since I have it for 5+ years.

Setup:
Processor: r5 2600
Gpu: gtx 1660 super
Motherboard: b450 mortar max
HDD: 1tb seagate storage

Make and model of your PSU and it's age? What version of Windows 10 are you currently on(assuming you're on Windows 10 and not something older)? Does the freezes(or lock ups?) happen when the system is idle or when taxed?

Hey, The psu is this: https://www.ebuyer.com/713434-aeroc...d-psu-12cm-black-fan-active-pfc-tw-acp-i500hg
It's quite old because I have it for 2 years and it's used as the guy replaced my original psu when it failed to his used one which is this.

Well, my windows 10 is up to date (Windows 10 20H2)

The computer "locked-up" yesterday when I was on a discord call and playing a game with people. The computer started to act very slow/unresponsive and it only solves when I reboot the computer although it happens every two weeks iirc.
