So, my PC shoots up to 100% disk usage all the time when I have a game running or during start up. It only lasts about 3 minutes when it happens, but it causes things to crash. Is this a problem with my CPU or Harddrive?

Games I run are DotA 2 and World of Warcraft. My specs are:

Nvidia GeForce GTX 950
AMD FX 8350
8 GB RAM
GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-US83 Motherboard
400 W Power Supply
1 TB WD Blue Harddrive

Your task manager should tell you which program or process is doing this, if you can open the task manager while it's happening.

Check your resource monitor and see what processes are taking up your CPU.

Disk usage?

I would check and make sure that's what's really happening. Though a poorly-written or malicious program could fill your whole drive, it's more common for your memory or CPU to be maxed instead.

I'm always set up for that. "shoots up to 100%" is very similar to "shot up to 97 degrees"
