The fan...man it is sooo yellow 馃槅

Anyway seriously it's your storage; that old spinning drive is about to die anytime now.

Buy a reasonable cheap ADATA 2.5" SATA SSD boot drive + a new 1TB HDD.

The first thing you should do is clean your computer, there's a lot of dust buildup in there. After that, I agree with the others an SSD for the OS will be a huge improvement.聽

SSD will make even this PC feel like its on nitro ;)

To state again what was already said here:聽

PSU and AFTER this Mobo/CPU/RAM.

I know spending on a new PSU wont give you any performance BUT will be guaranteed stable with the modern chips and not be a fire risk.

聽

GPU is perfectly fine but overpowered for the rest of the system

FOLDING MONTH 2021! GOGOGO and save on some heating costs 馃檪
