For like a good period of time i've been experiencing slow running and even few seconds freeze when for example i am in a game and i go a bit alt+tab to search for something. Got an I5 4690k, 16GB rual RAM, Win 10, but the thing is it didn't happened before, but now it's just frustrating, it happens often, my CPU is using literally 100% (dunno if this is the real reason) and things freeze.
Is my CPU, i need more RAM, or what would be the reason for a problem i didn't had before?

  1. go to settings/update & security/recovery
  2. under advanced startup, click restart now button
  3. this restarts PC in a blue menu
  4. choose troubleshoot
  5. choose advanced
  6. choose startup options
  7. click the restart button
  8. choose a safe mode (it doesn't matter which) by using number associated with it.
  9. Pc will restart and load safe mode
