any suggestion on some good cloning software?

my hard drive is starting to make noise and even BSOD'd once. need to replace it. will need to migrate the HDD to a SSD (may as well upgrade). looking for some cloning software to do it as it was recommended.

only thing on this PC is games so im not going to lose anything important if it died right now. just want to get my OS to a new SSD before it goes.

SSDs straightaway die once their lifespan is over.
You should get those with S.M.A.R.T. software.

My suggestion is to try out the Acronis True Image 2016.
Then you can decide if you can to get it or not... it's very pricey... and it better be good.
If you can't get any cloning software... then you have to rely on Windows Backup.
Copy and paste important data on the going-to-die drive to your new one.
And if you can, backup all of the data on your new drive to an external HDD/SSD regularly,
just in case.
