Question SSD 100%, BSODs, and other issues

Hello,

I have had a ton of issues with my 2-month old gaming PC I had built from CyberPower. I've had countless BSODs and I've reset my PC both keeping personal files and completely resetting the PC. It was fine for a while after the final reset I had but still encountered a few BSODs. Some of them were the blue screens where the 0% never moved, and just in the past 24-48 hours I've had some blue screens where it was an immediate crash and restart itself. I've read on countless forums and posts across the internet telling me to disable background apps (which I did) and to disable the automatic updates. I've seen posts on this forum and I've done them.

All except the uninstall GeForce. I will do that one next but I did want to ask about this tactic. If I uninstall it and it is the problem, is there a fix for it or do I just have to find some other software that can do what GeForce does?

Also wanted to mention that after disabling a bunch of the recommended settings from other posts on these forums, my SSD dropped from a constant 100% for a couple of days but now it spiked back.

replace the psu
update the motherboard bios
check the cpu/gpu temp
I read this article and followed the steps to disable msconfig which I thought I did already have disabled previously wasn't actually disabled. I disabled them again and seems like it is not a constant 100% now.

I'll keep updated if something else arises.
