    My pc is showing 100% disk usage on 1MB/s when the gpu is under load.


    I started experiencing this after my brother installed some malware on my pc while playing CS GO. I have removed all the malware i could find and have ran memory and disk tests which have shown me nothing but positive results, but when i run furmark the disk usage climbs to 100%. I also have noticed my nothbridge overheating which might be the issue. I also have a shady 600W psu that needs changing because it is old and I don't trust it.
    I have
    CPU: intel i5 3330
    GPU: Nvidia gforce gtx680 refrence
    RAM: 8GB kingston value ram
    PSU: 600W super cheap generic psu that came with the case
    HDD: wdc wd5000aakx-001ca0 500GB that needs changing
    MOBO: msi MSI H61MA-E35 (B3)

    Edit:

    I found out the reason for my hdd stopping while under load was that one of my 6 pins was a 2molex to 6pin adapter and one of the molex cables was also the one powering my hdd through a sata power cable.So i plugged in a different one and now it's fine. Ty for all your help.

    Furmark is an intensive program designed to do that

    But the same is with any intesive gpu load if I start playing any game the disk usage goes up to 100% with little to nothing writing or reading.

    Sounds like some malware may still be in there. Check the user app data roaming file for something strange

    Edit:
    Could be an hardrive issue too. Run some HD diagnostics

    HDD TEST

    Run SeaTools to check the integrity of your HDD. SeaTools Tutorial

    I have ran it and it ran all the tests fine.
