  1. No I was unable to ping the router, but the cable detects the router. I meant to include that in post, sorry.
  2. Earlier this week whilst playing Fortnite my ping to the game server spiked to a solid 1100, it would not drop. At first i brushed it off thinking someone else in the household was doing something, after about 5 minutes of this ping I asked my family if they were doing anything and to my surprise my father was the only one using the internet and he was on Facebook. Around ten minutes after the start of this "attack" my ping lowered back down to a solid 30. Throughout the week this exact same thing has been happening ever 1-2 hours and today it gave up. For some reason the internet will not connect at all, through Ethernet (which I usually use) or through WiFi. It is important to note that every other device on our network works during these "attacks", so it isn't likely to be an issue with the router or the cable because the router is being detected by my PC. Here is a list of my PC specs if it will help diagnose my issue: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/b3tT9W
  3. Ive been playing fortnite for 3 months with no issues until this week. I usually have around 180-110 fps in fortnite with my RX 580 but for some reason my fps keeps dropping to 20 and in some cases the game litterally freezes for up to 3 seconds. Is this something wrong with my GPU? Or does anyone know how to fix it?
  4. Just got the Cloud Alpha's today and tried getting them working but finding no success. The only sound coming from them is some static noise, when i unplug and plug the mic back in it will also make a noise. Any suggestions on whats wrong? I fear that the mic arrived broken and i'll have to wait even longer. Also, the headset is being plugged directly into the rear jacks on my Gigabyte Z170MX-Gaming 5 mobo and i am using the splitter
  5. What is the temperature when it is not running FaH? That sounds good for being under load though.
  6. I don't think Costco would sell a bootleg phone. You probably just made yourself believe it's a bootleg phone, there could be something wrong with your screen however if you insist there is an issue.
  7. Recently the USB 3.1 port died on my motherboard and I am struggling with USB space. After getting some Christmas cash I am looking to upgrade my RAM and purchase a powered USB hub. I was looking at buying the AUKEY Powered USB Hub with 7 USB 3.0 Ports, 3 AiPower Charging Portsr. When I found a review of this hub on YouTube the reviewer said that a USB hub does not take one USB and turn it into 7. I splits the USB bandwidth into 7, so you cannot plug in 7 USB 3 devices and expect them to work. This makes sense to me but I was wondering if anyone could verify that. I am also wondering if I plug my Logitech G933 Headset , a Xbox One wireless controller adapter, a standard USB 3 storage stick, and a guitar to PC cable (For games like Rocksmith) if it would still work? If this wouldn't work can someone guide me to a that will be able to support my needs?
  8. I have recently gotten into mining and was looking for a way to increase my hash rate. I just realized I have a RX 460 4GB boxed away not being used. I have two questions, 1. Will using my RX 580 and RX 460 4GB together work for mining? 2. What problems might occur if I do this? I don't have the RX 460 drivers installed, will I be able to do this with my other card plugged in or will I have to remove the 580 to set up the 460. Edit: I am mining Ethereum.
  9. Thank you so much, I uninstalled the Aorus software and reset my card through the AMD software and it works. Thanks again!
  10. I just tried the benchmark with hardware monitor open and the card is locked at 300MHz, also i will try uninstalling the software
  11. Today I installed my new RX 580 with no issues, I downloaded all the drivers and it was working great. I was doing the Unigine Heaven benchmark when I decided to apply the factory OC to my Card through the Aorus software. When I tried the benchmark again I was getting back around 8 FPS on max settings, down from 50. This is also the case in 3D Mark, Any have any suggestions on what to do or did my card get destroyed? Card is Gigabyte RX 580 8GB
  12. It's still happening, by now it could've downloaded 2GB. Is there any way to pause a (potential) windows update? Edit: I restarted to apply an update and it's back at it again. I can't do anything while this is happening,,,
  13. I'm aware it's my PC but I don't know how to make it stop
  14. Our internet usually runs around 5-6Mbps download and .30-.50 upload, usually me and my brother can both be playing a game and get 60-70 ping but at the moment all he's doing is playing Roblox and I have a solid 400-700 ping. I looked at the task manager on mine and his computer and mine has Service Host: Local System (16) running and using anywhere from 1-7Mbps and my ping going up and down somewhat corresponds to it. I would just end task it if that program wasn't in system32 (named svchost in system32). Does anyone know if this is normal or know of a program I can use to check what systems in the house are using the bandwidth?
  15. Looks kind of weird... Hopefully the performance will make up for it though, I'm really enjoying this Intel boycott

    Team Selection

    When I watch CS I just pick a side to win. I don't really know much about the teams but I like watching.
  17. The ones I don't upload and my games. Will they be ok if I uninstall steam?
  18. Of course i didn't try that... Im incredibly stupid. If i re installed steam would I lose any files like pictures etc.? That's kind of a dumb question I'd just prefer to not lose games and screenshots.
  19. I am severely triggered at the moment and planned on playing some games on steam but Gaben screwed me over again, I cannot open Steam at all. This happens quite often but usually I can use the task manager to force close the bootstrapper then relaunch steam and have it work. This time the bootstrapper doesn't appear in my Task Manager so it isn't even launching. When I click on steam the little blue loading circle comes for a second then nothing else. Please help me Yes ive restarted my computer 3 times...
  20. That's what il probably end up doing. They can't stop me from buying it just delay me and cost me more money because of activation fee's
  21. Being a little boy I don't have a credit card meaning, I cant order my own computer parts, also meaning I rely on my parents to order my parts. Me and my parents don't have a very good relationship, especially not me and my dad. I think I could have persuaded my mom if my dad didn't step in. Anyways, I built my computer with some "less expensive parts" intending on upgrading them later. Earlier I made a post just getting another opinion seeing if things were compatible and after getting my answer I intended on ordering my new PSU tonight. But for some reason my parents won't order it for me. They say it's a waste of money, I need this power supply to be able to power the GPU's i'l be getting in the future so I thought i'd get this now along with some nice cablemod cables. They said its a bad investment and I should wait until i'm getting my GPU(s) in a year or so from now (will be getting them sooner that is just what they said specifically), when I asked why they compared it to getting wheels for a car I don't know if i'm buying yet. I can assure you I am NOT staying with my RX 460, so that comparison makes no sense to me but still. They also said I shouldn't replace these things when I already have a computer that works. My current PSU is a 500W 80+ Bronze Non-modular PSU, I wouldn't call this working. After this I tried re-explaining to them that I planned on upgrading from the beginning because I had to build my computer prematurely because someone (my dad) threw my laptop on the floor and broke it... Then they used their authority as my parents to make me retreat to my room... Who do you think is in the wrong? Should I be allowed to get the parts? I do pay them fully for the price so as long as it's my money I don't see the problem.
