games crashing, Disc usuage at 99-100%

So ive been having problems since i upgraded my mobo ram and cpu. I havent been able to play games on my Rx 470 with out everything crashing, i did a fresh windows install, fresh driver install and nothing worked.

Last night I took out my Rx 470 and put my old GTX 950 in and it ran fine with no problems, so I figured that my Rx 470 was bad. I went today and bought a new 1060 3gb card, installed all the drivers and now this is crashing too.

I looked on my task manager and my Disc tab was at 99-100% and norton popped up a message telling me SVChost was using alot of resources. Ive been banging my head against a wall for a week now trying to figure this out, and now i bought a video card that i probably dont need since im thinking my old Rx 470 wasnt broken.

is this something wrong with my harddrive?

Does the computer work except when you enter a graphics intensive program like some games or the Heaven benchmark? If so you might have a problem with your power supply not providing the needed power for the graphics card. When I upgraded from a GTX 760 to a GTX 1060 everything worked until I went into a game like Skyrim or the Heaven benchmark where it would crash. Replacing the power supply with a better quality one fixed all the problems.

It worked before I switched to ryzen and I got a evga 430w
