I custom built my PC about 2 years ago, specs including
GTX 650 TI, 8 GB RAM, i74770 Processor, MSI Z87 Motherboard, 120 GB SSD (Main storage), and a 3 TB external drive. If you know PC stuff this is not a regualr computer you get from best buy. one day i started getting multiple blue screen errors sayin MEMORY_MANAGEMENT and once searching it up I found out that it means my hard drive is corrupted. But i have an SSD so im not sure how thats possible. Anyways, since then my PC has been very slow when i attempt to play games, or just simply opening a program.

I tried that video before and it seemed to clear it up a bit, but should i replace the ram i have or just add some new sticks?
