Hi

So last few days I've been experiencing some issues.
My CPU is running at a way lower clock speed than its supposed to.
I have an i5 6600k and a Gigabyte h170 gaming g3 MOBO
Which means i cant overclock it.
But it has been running at a lower speed even when Im playing games
Or just idle.
And I think theres a solution to this
I was seeing that my SSD is constantly been using.
Its usage spikes up to like 90%.
If you have any solutions or appropriate way to fix this please answer.
P.S. My CPU before this thing happened was clocked around at 3.5~3.7
But right now its clock around 1.3-2.7 and sometimes spike even lower
P.S. 2 My SSD was a sandisk 120 Gb
