Hi All, A while back I build a brand new PC and I have been having problems with my internet speed every since. Every device in my house(either connected to wifi or ethernet), phones, laptopts etc has no issues and on a speedtest get's an average of 200mbit's. My previous PC also had no issues reaching this speed. That PC was on wifi btw. My new PC can't get any higher then 40-50. No matter if I use wifi, ethernet or powernet they all can't seem to get any higher. Occasionally it gets up to 70-80 but quikly drops down again. I tried everything and have searched every forum and tried the suggestions in those. What I tried: I updated all my drivers, deleted them and updated them again. Also tried drivers from other manufacters instead of asus Checked my router settings and tried various things Checked my mesh network settings (Deco M5) and tried various things Updated my bios Reinstalled windows 11 tried about every options that has anything to do with network in windows and tried switching my adapter from wifi 6, to 5 etc. hecked there is no bloatware installed that is causing issues. Checked that Hardware is not throtteling as everything is running smoothly and not using more then 5-10%. Windows troubleshooter Probabply more that I can't remember For anyone interested, this is the PC build in question: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/p.klokgieters/saved/#view=38qXRB Any more ideas are welcome! I'm out of ideas. Also for extra info: The internet is stable, just really slow.

Same as the comment above, I will take a look when I get home tonight. Much appreciated!

Thankyou, this is great. I'm going to look at it in more detail when I get home tonight!

Hi everyone, I bought my PC about 5 years ago(also with the help from you guys!). However, I think it's time for a big upgrade. It still runs all games, but more and more I'm noticing I need to put settings lower and lower. Especially with games like Battlefield etc. I am looking for help on this because I have little to no knowledge of what is best for the price right now, and if all the components fit together. My budget is about 1600-1800 euros. If it could be less, good. If it needs to be a bit more, so be it. I'm based in the Netherlands if it matters. The PC is used mainly for the following purposes: All types of games, from the newest and heaviest to old school games. I currently play at 1080p 144hz, but this new build should for sure keep a higher resolution in focuss. Moving to 4K eventually would be nice, and I'm planning on adding a third screen Also used for video editting or programming at times, but not the main focus. For programming I have my work laptop, and video editting is only like twice a year when I make a movie from my holiday captures. My current build is: Motherboard: ASUS PRIME B350-PLUS CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.2GHhz GPU: ASUS GeForce GTX 1070 DUAL 8GB RAM: 16,00GB DDR4-3000 Hard Drive: Western Digital Blue 1TB 7.200rpm SSD: M2 250GB (for Windows mostly). 2 - 24 inch screens (1 60ghz and 1 144ghz with gsync) PSU: COOLERMASTER PSU G750M 750WATT MODULAIR (yea it's old.) Wishes: The most bang for my buck, I don't need the best of the best, I'm just looking for a solid build that runs things smoothly for the upcoming years. As I mentioned, my current build is 5 years old(some of the components are even older) and served me really good, and still does most of the time. If I make a new build right now, and need to start turning the newest games down to high instead of ultra in a year or 2, that's completely fine. Also I was thinking the M2 SSD I have, could be used in the new build, as It's decently new(about 2 years old). Also not sure if it would be wise to bring over my current RAM to my new PC or to just buy new ones. What I currently have in mind is somewhere towards the GTX 3070, 1TB SSD & 32GB ram. besides that I'm completely clueless. Hopefully It's allowed to ask this, and thanks in advance for any tips and help! Much appreciate it, my last build you guys helped me with turned out great :).

Could you explain why it's not great? Like what to watch when buying a good one etc. I'm curious about this stuff and would like to learn.

COOLERMASTER PSU G750M 750WATT MODULAIR It's an oldy, I just saw it's from 2014. So it's been in 2 pc's already. Will it be able to handle let's say a new graphics card, new cpu and some more memory/storage?

Zen 2 sounds good. Is it compatible with my mobo? And no I havent tried VR yet. But as I explained above about my situation with moving into my house, once I move in that will be part of my new setup sooner or later. Always wanted to try VR but found it to expansive(still though).

Thats good to know thankyou. Also I'm not sure out of my head. I believe I have more then enough. Someone around 800watt. But I have to look once I get home. Will PC partpicker also take psu into account? And calculate how much you need.

I'm mostly upgrading because I want a new case really badly. As I will be moving into my first home somewhere this year, I want to make a proper setup instead of a old broken pc case sitting under a small desk. I wanna make a nice proper setup which includes a new PC case with te possibility to add some nice lights etc. I figured that since I'm moving to a new PC case I might as well do a small upgrade. The PC performs fine for now. Could have some more FPS on the triple A games but besides that it runs fine indeed. This upgrade is not for now though, but for over 1 or 2 months. I just wanted to take my time and start a bit with preparing/thinking about it.

Hi everyone, I bought my PC a little over 2 years ago(also with the help from you guys!). However, I think it's time for a small upgrade. It still runs everything perfectly fine, but still. I am looking for help on this because I have little to no knowledge of what is best for the price right now, and if all the components fit together/If I need a better PSU or anything. My current build: Motherboard: ASUS PRIME B350-PLUSCPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600 @ 3.2GHhzGPU: ASUS GeForce GTX 1070 DUAL 8GBRAM: 16,00GB DDR4-3000Hard Drive: Western Digital Blue 1TB 7.200rpm SSD: M2 250GB (for Windows mostly). 2 - 24 inch screens (1 60ghz and 1 144ghz with gsync) I have about 500 euro and a part of that goes to a new case which i desperatly need.(this one was already second hand and not in the best shape). not sure which case that will be yet. Probaply a rather clean and simple one which I cann add lights to in the future. Any idea's on what to upgrade first/what is the best bang for the buck? It's mostly for Gaming, and a little bit for coding/general PC usages such as internet,watching movies etc etc. I few things I would like to note with this is that eventually I would like to add a third screen. So that might decrease my performance as well I'm guessing? Extra question: Does PC part picker recognize if components work together? Thanks a lot in advance

Doubting between a ryzen and Core I5. As you said, i'm not sure if it's worth the extra 150 as long as the cpu doesnt bottleneck the gpu.

That looks like a solid build. I'm going to dive a bit more into that one. Thanks alot.

Sorry for the late reactions, I was away from home. No RBG etc doesnt matter. Purely performance and bang for the buck :)

Here's my situation. his Laptopis getting worse and old and he wants to transition to a desktop. But as someone without to much knowledge of pc's I came here for help. I know a little here and there but not enough to make a complete build. I would highly appreciate any help you can give me Budget: 1200 at a absolute max What am i gonna do with the pc? Gaming only. Myself I've been thinking about a few things but haven't actually put something together. What i've been thinking is the following: Geforce 1060/1070 16gb RAM at least Some good processor, amd maybe? Atleast 1 TB space, but prefer 2TB. SSD would come in really handy. Somekind of room for extra components in the future. A disc drive is not really needed but always welcome. A wifi card Note: This price includes a monitor, and I'm not a 100% sure but I think keyboard as well, and other things needed. As he is transitioning from a laptop to PC, he has nothing. All he has is a mouse and headset.

I am using that, I overlooked his answer. Thanks, will do this tonight! Buying a second system just for youtube is a bit bruto indeed lol. Especially because it works fine if I don't put it in fullscreen.

Hmm, odd. Why only with fullscreen though? And why do all games lagg, even low end games like league

Not sure if this is the right part of the forum to put this but, When I'm playing a game on screen A, and I put youtube on screen B it works fine. However, when I put youtube on fullscreen while game is still running after about ~10sec my game starts to lagg really bad. If i take it out of fullscreen it works fine. I've already reinstalled my OS when i bought a brandnew SSD a while ago put problem still exists. Not sure what the problem might be. Any idea's? NOTE: 1 thing that might help is, 1 screen is 144ghz with Display port, and the second is 60ghz with HDMI. Specs: Ryzen 1600 GTX 1070 16GB Windows 10 Pro SSD - 970 EVO

Update, After multiple struggles I finally got it working. First i was missing M2 screws, than my windows decided to install a part of windows on the HDD, eventhough i only selected the SDD, than I had to enable UEFI mode. etc etc, but after 2 installs of windows everything is working great now! Thanks for the tips!

I'll update this with my outcome for anyone walking into this problem. Asus kind off said "fuck you we don't send them" but did link me to this webshop: https://www.highflow.nl/modding/schroeven-bouten-etc./m.2-ssd-standoff-and-screw.html And said I could order that one. Sadly, I have no choice, but paying 1,60 for a product and 6,50 for sending is just beyond retarded. Anyways, hope I helped someone with this sollution.

I also did. No one is able to or wants to give them. I emailed Asus support, hoping they're nice enough to send one out

Nope i know... Guess il Email Asus but that will take weeks.

I have tried 4 of them. They wont give them / dont have them.

Yea, but what are you trying to get at here? I already said Its not installed on my Motherboard from scratch and I lost the box. I need to find new screws. I mean... I appreciate all the help really, but I can't do much with that information. I know it comes with the Motherboard, but I lost it.

I don't quite understand. I'm a total noob to anything hardware related. As far as I know, all I need is a Screw and a standoff

Nope... I said this in my post to prevent questions for it But no it's not. Point is i need to get a new screw but they're nowhere to be find
