Hi I've been using this desktop for about an year now. Since about a month ago, I realized that the time it took my computer to turn the monitor on kept getting longer and longer. I have an ssd so it usually took about 20 seconds from the power button to my desktop. It go so much slower to the point that it takes 2 minutes for it to get to my desktop screen now. Yesterday, when I was not doing much but watching stream with a few tabs open, my screen started to flicker. Flicker, as in parts of my screen and applications going black and glitching. Then, a bsod popped up, causing me to restart my computer. Ever since yesterday, my computer has been more very laggy overall. For example, my fps was ridiculously low when playing a game that I've always been playing at max settings on average 100~200 fps (cs:go). Is it the power problem? My build just in case:

- cx 600
- gtx 560
- 4gb 1333 ram
- m5a97 r2.0 motherboard
- monitor, keyboard, mouse, usb headset, speakers, game controller adapter.
- 1 TB hdd, 120 GB ssd
 


I used the kingston toolbox to check its health and it said lifetime: 100%

Also, my physical memory % on my task manager shows 50%, when I only have my chrome open. Is this supposed to be high?
 


If you're correct, then does that mean that I have to replace both my ssd and my rams?
 


Thanks for all the replies! I think I'm just going to take out the ssd and install windows on the hdd.
