Hi everyone, i have got a fairly old home pc, from 2016 wwitha i3 4130, and a 500 gigs toshiba hard disk. and dual channel 12 gigs of ram.
From last few weeks I am noticing very slow boots ( around 3 to 4 minutes ), very frequent software crashes, and YouTube videos taking hella long to load (crashes browser frequently and other softwares). I got a decent internet connection (100 Mbbs) so its not a issue.
I think my hard disk is dying as i used CrystalDiskMark Info to check it. I am planning to replace the old drive with a 860 evo 500gb SSD. My question is, As my observations say, Will replacing the old drive with a SSD fix the speed issues, software crashes ( including youtube and browser crashes)?
Also My CPU reach's 98 degrees on idle. I haven't replaced the thermal paste since 2016, but will replacing the thermal paste fix it too?
Thank You.
