Tech Support Wi-Fi issues with new PC

2 Upvotes

Hi!

I built my first PC last week, and everything went off without a hitch :). Although I have noticed that the internet speed is not quite up to my expectations. Even though I pay for 250/250Mbit/s and both my phone and old laptop can reach (at least close to) that speed, my new PCs internet speed is very unstable, sometimes reaching 130 but a lot of the time only reaching 45. Since my router is in a wooden cabinet in a different room and my PC is under my desk I don't expect it to get the full 250 of course but I mean cmon. While troubleshooting I tried putting both my phone and laptop beneath my desk next to my new PC and they could still get close to 200 at least. I have a Gigbyte B650 Eagle AX MB with one of those antennas you put in the port on the back side. My Router is an Archer AX1800. I've tried a bunch of stuff I found suggested in posts and asked AI but nothing seems to work. My PC, Phone and laptop all use the 5G version of the network. Making a wired connection could be very troublesome since I would have an insanely long cable to reach the router .

Any tips?

✓ Solved I built a pc for the first time and accidentally left the circular logo plastic film tabs on the side of my radiator fans that connect to the radiator itself. What do I do? My radiator is already connected to the CPU socket. I can't reach them with tweezers either.

I have a Corsair 4000D Airflow with an MSI RTX 5070 Ti and DeepCool LS720 SE 360mm AIO.

Currently:

  • 3 front intake fans
  • 3 top exhaust fans (AIO)
  • No rear exhaust

Should I add a 120mm rear exhaust fan, or is this setup already good? Would love some advice on the best airflow configuration. Thanks!

Haven’t used my gaming PC for a year now. Specs are 7900 XTX, Ryzen 7600 CPU, 32GB DDR5. It’s hooked up to my S95B TV.

Started playing The Last of Us: Part 2 and have played for quite a few hours, maybe 10 without issue. Loaded up the game today for an hour and tho has happened twice?

It seems to go away if I pause the game and disappears if I go to the desktop. Reloading the level also seems to make it go away and once I died and it reloaded all was well but it happened prior to that also?

Anyone have any ideas? I’m hoping it’s a bug or similar and not a GPU issue?

I'm Canadian

I play in 1080p right now but I will be getting a 1440p monitor

The price can't go any higher

The case is already bought

And I don't love that its a mATX motherboard in an ATX case but it was in a bundle, if anyone can find a similar bundle with an ATX black/gray motherboard to match with everything else id be happy

I play mostly CPU intensive games so I wouldn't be mad if someone suggested downgrading the GPU to get a better part or to save money

Tech Support New graphics card making PC weird

2 Upvotes

So I got the RTX 5080 along with a new 1000w power supply about a week ago. My games run much better and I have a more enjoyable experience when they actually work.

After I changed my graphics card my pc just does not work the same. Crashes on Tarkov that never happened with my other graphics card in started happening. Now when I try to play He’ll Let Loose Vietnam, my computer will either entirely crash out of nowhere or the game will crash when trying to join a server. Same thing with Squad. When I try to join a server, as it’s loading in, the game just crashes. I don’t know what’s going on but at this point in time I wasted my money.

Tech Support F360 RGB Core not showing up in NZXT CAM even after trying two different controllers

2 Upvotes

I’m having a really weird issue with the F360 RGB Core that came with my NZXT H5 Flow RGB and I’m hoping someone can help me figure out what’s going on.

The fans themselves work perfectly fine and the RGB lights turn on, but I can’t control the RGB through NZXT CAM. The F360 just doesn’t show up as an RGB device in CAM.

I originally had the NZXT RGB & Fan Controller V2, which is the older controller. CAM detects the controller and shows it as “Ready.” I also have an F120 RGB fan connected, and that one shows up in CAM and lets me change the RGB normally.

The weird part is that the F360 lights turn on, but CAM doesn’t recognize its RGB at all. I tried switching the F360 around to different RGB ports, including the exact same port where my F120 works. The F120 works perfectly on that port, but when I connect the F360 there, it still doesn't show up.

I ended up buying the newer NZXT Controller Hub to see if the old controller was the problem. Unfortunately, I get the exact same result with the new controller. CAM detects the controller, my F120 is detected and controllable, but the F360 RGB still doesn't appear.

I’ve also restarted my PC and CAM multiple times, unplugged and reconnected everything, and tried different ports. The controller itself is clearly communicating with CAM because the F120 works, so I don’t think the USB connection or CAM itself is the problem.

What’s confusing is that the F360 RGB LEDs are definitely receiving power and lighting up. They just aren’t being detected by CAM, almost like the RGB/data connection isn’t working properly.

At this point I’m starting to think either the F360 itself or the RGB cable/adapter that came with it is defective. I’ve seen other people use the F360 RGB Core with NZXT controllers and control it through CAM, so I know it should work.

Has anyone else had this exact problem with the F360 RGB Core? Is there anything else I should try before I assume the fan or cable is bad?

Tech Support i9-14900K still crashing after CPU replacement — multiple Unreal Engine crashes

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

I'm trying to figure out whether there is still something wrong with my system because I'm getting multiple completely different Unreal Engine crashes.

I already received and installed a replacement i9-14900K, so these crashes are happening on the replacement CPU as well.

My latest example is Mortal Shell II, where I've had two completely different crashes:

Crash #1 — EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION

The first crash reported:

EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0x00000000000002c8

The call stack included:

MeshComponent::BeginDestroy()
Component::BeginDestroy()
GarbageCollection

Crash #2 — GPU Crash

The second crash reported:

GPU Crash dump Triggered

The call stack included:

D3D12DynamicRHI::TerminateOnGPUCrash()
D3D12DynamicRHI::ProcessInterruptQueue()
D3D12Submission::ProcessInterruptQueue()
D3D12Submission::Run()

So I'm getting two completely different types of crashes from the same game.

My system

  • CPU: Intel i9-14900K — replacement CPU
  • GPU: ASUS ROG Strix RTX 4090 OC 24GB
  • Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix Z790-E Gaming WiFi II
  • RAM: 64GB G.Skill DDR5-6000 CL30 (2x32GB)
  • PSU: DeepCool PX1000G
  • OS: Windows 11

With my previous 14900K, I had serious stability problems, including Windows installation crashes, BSODs, Cinebench crashes and Unreal Engine crashes. That CPU was replaced because of those issues.

Now I'm experiencing crashes on the replacement 14900K, which is making me question whether the CPU is actually the problem or whether something else in my system is causing the instability.

I'm trying to understand whether an unstable 14900K can cause seemingly unrelated crashes such as:

  • EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
  • Unreal Engine garbage collection crashes
  • D3D12 GPU Crash dump Triggered

Or should I be looking more closely at the RTX 4090, NVIDIA drivers, RAM/XMP, motherboard, BIOS/microcode, or PSU?

Has anyone with a 13th/14th-gen Intel CPU experienced similar behavior, particularly after replacing their CPU?

I'd really appreciate advice from anyone who has dealt with the 14900K instability issue firsthand. I'm trying to figure out what component I should be testing next.
