So, I recently bought a valve index and I've been having a decent experience. I’ve been expanding my game collection and also getting into beats over modes. But I've been having issues with the CPU frame times causing lag spikes. I just want to see if anyone knows of a common problem in that regard as my CPU usage is generally very low when playing games my PC specs are as follows. WINDOWS10 (64bit) AMD Ryzen 5900x ASUS prime pro x570 CORSAIR vengeance pro RGB 64gb ASUS GTX 980TI strix gaming SAMSUNG 970 nvme 1tb (BOOT DRIVE) CORSAIR rmi 850w

So I've been having USB connectivity issues the last few months ever since I updated from an older bios and I've got to the point where I've tried everything I can find that's recommended on the Internet to try and everything that I can personally think of that may affect this and nothings working so I tried going back to that old bios that I was running before I had issues and I'm still having issues with USB connectivity I've tried disabling global C states in the bios I've tried setting the PCI E lanes that serve the USB controllers to Gen 3 I've tried updating the chipset drivers which I'm actually having issues installing the ones directly from AMD but the ones that are provided on Asus website seem to install fine I've installed a clean version of Windows which didn't make a different so I've now gone back to the previous install as it set up how I like it so I'm at the point where I don't know what to try anymore as randomly all USB devices on my computer will disconnect for a few seconds and then reconnect and this is as you can probably guess quite annoying when you try and play games If anyone has anymore suggestions and things that I can try really be open to anything at this point BIOS version 4021 WINDOWS 10 AMD Ryzen 5900x ASUS prime pro x570 CORSAIR vengeance pro RGB 64gb ASUS GTX 980TI strix gaming

ok thanks dose unraid handle this defiantly

so I'm currently trying to set up a True Nas NAS which i will admit now I'm very new to it all I currently have 5 4TB hard drive which i was panning to run in a ZFS z2 which should give me 12TB of useable storage I think? but I was wondering in future can I add more drive to it as the case I'm using support up to 8 drives so in a years time can I add 3 more 4TB drive to have 24Tb of useable storage or dose it not work like that thanks

So i recently brought 2 Seagate barracuda 4tb internal drive which I have had for about a week and when i went to boot my computer this Moring i got my motherboard reporting a smart error with one of the drives so i download Seagate drive diagnostic tool and it came back as fine so I try to move some file to and from the drive and they were fine the drives is not getting hot and sound fine as well so i was wondering what to do should just ask to retune the drive the reason I’m asking here as I haven’t come across these Seagate S.M.A.R.T. error before Thanks and please for give the complete lack of any punctuation

ok thanks

ok thanks so am I losing like 15% or something more like 2-3% performance

so i recently upgraded to a ryzen 5900x which is paired with 64GB 4x16GB 3200Mhz CL16 ram ( I know 64GB is overkill for most thing) and i was doing some more reading and quite a lot of people suggest going with 3600Mhz ram so i was wondering would it be worth the Hassel of return the ram and buying 3600mhz ram to replace it or is the difference in performance not worth the effort thanks

is this read/write speeds about right for WD blue 4tb 5400rpm as it seems slow

so i can't get any driver to work for the adapter i've tried the ones people recommended from microsoft update catalog but i just get them to work and i get this error if i force an install (This device cannot start. (Code 10)) i'm assuming maybe the problem is this is the mini adapter and not the original one microsoft put out just wondering can anyone point me in the right direction thanks

ok i will give it a try

so I swapped out my thermal paste today and now my bios look like this any suggestions?

ok thanks i will probably go see them at some point and ask

so my problems is as a present i got given a google home but I’m currently in university accommodation so i have to use the university provided wifi/network but they use a captive-portal network on their wifi so i can’t connect it and also i don’t think connecting a google home to public wifi is adviseable so I need to create my own network for the googel home I thought about using something like a travel router in bridge mode but checking the university termes and condition it sied these are prohibited so my question is can you make a travel router invisible to a network administrator or is there another solution to this problem that i cant think of thanks
