Four beeps on start up B550 chipset
Gazeley replied to Gazeley's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
How do I go about solving it? -
Curry's PC World are giving me a run around trying to get any information on how I can sort this. I'd have to either take it in to Curry's or Corsair, no one can give any guidance. I've found that motherboard model is ROG Strix X570-F Gaming. I'm pretty sure it's one long beep followed by three short ones, but the guide claims that means no VGA which seems a strange error. I've now just rebooted and there was no beeping. Could this issue really be that I didn't have my monitor plugged in?

Pre-built recommendations (I know I'm sorry)
Gazeley replied to Gazeley's topic in New Builds and Planning
I highly doubt she has anything technical in mind, I'd say bog standard 60fps I think 50-60 Hz. She says minecraft, but a bit of leeway would be nice if possible -
Budget (including currency): £400-600 Country: UK (England) Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Minecraft Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Peripherals not needed, I can't remember the resolution and refresh rate but it's a tv rather than a monitor. Sorry I'm asking about pre-builts I know that's sacrilege around these parts. I'm looking for a first time budget pc for a younger sister, I have experience building pcs in the past but I don't really have the time at the moment, I'm out of the loop and the GPUs seem to be non-existant. What sould I be looking for in a prebuilt for this price? Is the GTX 1050ti fine, I've seen one on amazon claiming to have both a GTX 1650 and RX 570 that's definitely dodgy right? She's looking to play simple games like minecraft, however I imagine once she's bitten with the bug of PC gaming that could go further.

While those look decent, I unfortunately have a wall and door between my desktop and the router so I'd have to drill through skirting board and brick which no one in the house is careful enough to be doing

I just ordered a Cat 7 Ethernet cable, I was under the impression this is better than the previous Cat6/a cables but I've watched explaining there's no real benefit and I've been told they damage easier. Is this the case? I plan to have the cable run under the floor, around 10m. The cable I've bought: https://www.amazon.co.uk/KabelDirekt-connectors-Ethernet-transfers-suitable-Black/dp/B0843WLW6S/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=kabeldirekt+ethernet+10m&qid=1606907989&sr=8-3

I had a look and I don't think Virgin Hub has the ability to limit the bandwidth of other users. I've figured out how to switch band, thank you for that advice. What do you know about changing channels and will that help me? Thank you for your help so far
-
Sorry I have no idea what QoS is, what is it and how do I go about doing it? Also, I don't really know how to switch from 5GHz to 2.4GHz, would that be a thing that only effects me or will it effect everyone? Also, I believe my network card is dualband so does that not mean that's covered or am I misunderstand the meaning of dualband?

I am indeed in the UK. The router was changed from a Sky hub 2 to a Virgin Hub 3.0. So the sky one I think was pretty out of date, but also the issue was there before the Sky router was replaced.
-
The router and the modem are packaged together in the Virgin hub 3.0. I'm not entirely sure if I'm in the right place but the Network log doesn't really have a whole lot in it.

Not quite to the same extent, not amazing connection but staying connected from what I can tell. I believe brick, but it's not all that thick and there's a wooden door. See I know brick could be an issue, but the connection was fine over summer I could stay in a game without being kicked out of it every two minutes. I could also see this, but I don't think it's all that rare for everyone to be on at the same time so I would've had the issue sooner. Right now while everyone's watching tv, so three people are using their phones, with my desktop being the only PC on, I've got a a download speed of 2.5 Mbps.

I've been having really bad connection issues with my desktop for about a month or so. I have no idea what the issue is, I have no idea how it started. I cannot use ethernet, it'd require drilling through a wall or the floor, also my mum won't allow it for that reason and she doesn't want me having a monopoly on it in a house of five. The router is in the next room, between my desktop and the router is a wall. My desktop is next to a wall. My network interface card is a TP-Link Archer T4E AC1200. I changed ISP today, from Sky to Virgin. The Mbps seems to have improved, however I'm still having issues. The router is Virgin Hub 3.0. My connection strength seems to go all over the place, this morning when the router was newly put in I reached 100 Mbps on my desktop, this evening I'm scraping 20 Mbps. Often my connection will just cut out completely. In a game of League of Legends I will go from having 30ish ping to 10,000 ping. Over the summer my connection was completely fine, it only got worse about a month or so ago without me making any change. How can I troubleshoot this? I have an inkling it's my network card but then it seems odd that it would connect me to the wifi at all if that was the case. Please help I am at my wit's end and have no idea what to do.

There's a wall and a door, several meters. I'm not going to be able to use ethernet, logistically and I live at home my mum isn't going to let me have an ethernet cable running from the living room.
-
Yeah that's what I mean. It isn't logistically viable. I'm the only person using a desktop and there's a door between me and the router.
