My computer is freezing with my CPU, the driver i have Windows on and my GPU hitting 100 % at the same time for 2 - 4 seconds.

Hi

I just built my self a new PC and got all new parts except for my GPU which I took from my last PC. So this "freezing" all started just a while after I had built it, I've searched around on the webb to find a solution to my problem but i can't seem to find how to do it.
I've updated all of my drivers to, but when the freezing occurs a kind of spinning sound comes from withing my hard-drive area in my PC case. The sound is like it comes from a DVD player but I don't have one, I suspect it comes from my harddrives. If you would need more information the please comment.

My Specs:

CPU: Intel(R) Cote(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz
RAM: 16 GB
OS: Windows 64-bit
GPU: Gtx 1080 8GB
Motherboard: ROG STRIX Z390-H Gaming
PSU: Fractal Design Integra M 750W

If anyone got any idea of what could be causing such a problem please leave a comment.
Thanks

Yes the sound is most likely HDD.

Is there anything I can do?

Have you run a health test on the HDD.

I've done a "short" health test on the software you linked and everything is green and it says that no problems was found.

I don't have a USB on hand so I will get one and come back after I get some results. Thanks for the help up til now.

Question from robinflink35 : "PC freezing for 2-3 sec while my windows ssd disc hits 100 %"

Hi

So I've had this problem for about 2 weeks now on my newly built PC with only one part from my old one, which was my GPU. My pc randomly freezes, in the task manager it says that my windows SSD disk hits 100% but I can hear my HDD starting to spin exactly when my screen and all freezes. I've done a Memtest and found zero errors on my RAM. I have allso checkd my CPU temperature when I play Destiny 2 and it stays at about 50 °C at all times.

I've read about this problem on some threads, could it be something with "head parking" with the disk sleeping? I don't have that much knowledge about HDD and how to fix things like this, that's the reason I'm reaching out for help here.n If tthere is any more info that is needed please ask.

CPU: Intel(R) Cote(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz

Thanks for any help!
