Can you give us a screenshot from your task manager processes? 
Also is your hard disk almost full or hardware outdated?

HDD could be having trouble

windows task manager doesnt show the cause  and my hardisk is 

might make a seperate petition for windows & other sht but didnt think it would matter much when building this pc 

I would go with an raid level 1 if your HD/SSD is having trouble.

 

Would also kill the need of the windows backups.

Have you tried to update the driver software from your processor in device manager?

Go for a small(120-240gb) ssd for windows. 

Your system will run much smoother and without any problems.
