Hey there! So my wife’s pc has been acting up recently it started with marvel rivals where she would just get horrible hitching and freezing. The issue didn’t persist to other games until she got back into diablo. After taking a look whenever the hitching and freezing would occur it was her SSD hitting 100% usage while gaming. Only when the SSD usage went down did the game stabilize. I attempted to move the files to a hard drive to see if ssd was failing however the HDD began to do the same thing. Attached is a video of the hitching and freezing a lot with the hardware hitting 100%

Edit: thanks to everyone helps on here it was the ram maxing itself out and offloading into the SSD. Thanks to everyone who made a useful comment!
