  1. I have a Razer Blade Advanced 2020 Edition and both USB C ports seem to charge really slow... One port is Thunderbolt, other is at least USB 3.0, likely 3.1. It all started when I used a partially damaged thunderbolt cable to charge my phone and my pone said fast charging at first, then says charging, 5 hours until charged... I'm assuming my cable may have shorted out some USB components. Is there a way to see if its actually damaged? No windows errors or logs point to any issues, and gigabit data + low speed charging works as it should... just not as much current. Im not certain, but I think I had a popup error when it first happened mentioning a USB Malfunction, but nothing ever since.
  2. Ill try that! Thanks! I sometimes thought that remaining drivers from old installations might still be lingering around.
  3. Great suggestions, thank you! It might be a power / thermal issue, but its a tough call. My Razer Blade that i run cyberpunk on has a long list of user reviews saying it gets hot, and yes, it does. But I never had it thermal throttle, and it never goes above 81C, normally runs at 74C. But the PSU in the charging block gets insanely hot (users complain about that too!) and sometimes even triggers a thermal cutoff. But that did not occur anytime near this GPU issue and ive played cyberpunk for months after this happened with no issues at all. Event logs did not show anything about power or thermals, and also didnt say much of anything regarding the crash either. I run an OEM Samsung M.2 SSD and the samsung SSD utility doesnt give much info on it. Il try crystaldisk and see if its better.
  4. Its on my gaming laptop, so no. But Cyberpunk 2077 used to run great for extended periods of time. I would run high settings without ray tracing and record / save replays for hours on end every day. Never had an issue. Its ever since the previously mentioned GPU driver was installed around February.
  5. This all began when Cyberpunk 2077 froze on fast travel back in February. I have followed all the recommended steps to fix it but nothing worked, it just started a new nightmare... To fix this crash, I did the following... Rebooted computer Verified Game files via Steam (3 different times, all passed!) Reinstalled Nvidia Driver Complete uninstall / Reinstall of Cyberpunk 2077 Clean Install of Nvidia Driver Cleared Shader Cache Deleted associated game temp files / folders Disabled In Game overlays / 3rd party software Disabled Overclock (wasnt overclocked anyway) Attempted Nvidia Graphics driver downgrade (**SIDE NOTE**) Selected GPU preference in windows to select dedicated gpu. Started with minimum graphics settings (With and without Vesync) Got so frustrated that I wiped my system and did a clean install of Windows 11 (same as before). Reinstalled GPU drivers and Cyberpunk 2077... CRASH! I'm sorta stuck here because ever since that has started happening, I sometimes get HORRIBLE GPU hangs where not even task manager can display on top of the hung game window. I have to force a reboot to correct it. *edit* Other programs and windows experience the hang issue. Multiple other games, as well as other misc applications. These are the drivers ive gone thru... GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 535.98 May 30, 2023 (will update to after posting this thread) GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 532.03 May 24, 2023 (current) GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 531.79 May 2, 2023 (Tried, Issue persists) GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 531.68 April 18, 2023 (Tried, Issue persists) GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 531.61 April 13, 2023 (Tried, Issue persists) GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 531.41 March 23, 2023 (Issue started with this driver) GeForce Game Ready Driver WHQL 531.29 March 14, 2023 (tried to downgrade to, but Corrupted on every download, skipped) (**SIDE NOTE**) **SIDE NOTE**I tried downloading the previous driver from Nvidia's site, download always gets corrupted at end no matter how many times I retired. I did it on other browsers and other computers even and its always corrupted?? I started a support ticket but they insisted that it was my antivirus (bitdefender). No matter how I tried to explain it, he just kept saying uninstall it. Dead end there. Useless support) There are very few logs / error messages when this happens. Cyberpunk 2077 gave an "assert error". Maybe DX12 related? but the windows 11 reinstall should of fixed that.... 2nd edit: System Specs: Razer Blade 15 Advanced 2020 Edition (RZ09-0330x) i7-10875H / RTX 2070 Super Max-Q
  6. I have a Samsung Galaxy S10 that is QC capable. When I plug it into a USB port on my Razer Blade 15 Advanced (2020) it will say "fast charging 1 hour 52 min to full" for about 5 to 10 seconds before it then says "charging 5 hours 30 minutes to full". My S10 can fast charge just fine on other power sources. And yes, I know QC and PD are different things, but the current drop must be caused by something.....
  7. We have Windows Server 2012 R2 that has RDP port set as 3391. Somehow, some way, unknown external ip addresses are connecting to rdp and successfully establishing a connection (they dont pass credential authentication though), all with non RDP ports... How is this possible? We have RDPGuard, windows firewall on server, and unifi firewall....
  8. I run multiple Software Defined Radios on my computer and I would like to use a dedicated PCIe USB card for them so they can get consistent power and data throughput. Just like an audiophile wants expensive Japanese electronic components in their amplifiers, I want my PCIe USB card to be high end as well. My PC has a PCIe Gen2 x16 slot and a PCIe Gen1 x4 slot available for use. must have At least 4 USB ports (USB 3.0 or higher), and rock solid power delivery (not like Quick Charge or USB PD, just high end components, I guess? All of this is so important because the Software Defined Radios decode multiple P25 Digital Trunked Radio Systems 24/7 and rock solid stability is important, any power spikes, inconsistent power, poor quality components, all increase the chance of decoding errors.
  9. Title pretty much sums it up, just a ~300W laptop power supply that gets top hot to even touch, should i put a fan by it or slap a heat sink on it? No clue what the exact temp is
  10. Its not the generation that matters, its the PCIe lane allocation. If you have intergrated graphics, use that, then remove your GPU. Your GPU is likely to be taking up most of the PCIe lanes, not leaving enough for the two NVMe drives. Refer to the "best solution" in this link. It explains it better. https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/pci-e-lanes-issue-ryzen-5-3600-msi-b450m-pro-vdh.3548278/
  11. I was thinking it could be PCIe Lane allocation to your processor. Read this article, they explain it better. https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/amd-ryzen-5-5600x-review,3.html
  12. could it be inconsistent power from the PSU? possibly faulty PSU?
  13. I dont know which power ports supply the M.2 slots on your motherboard, but make sure you got all of them in correctly. Reseat your (20+4) pin connector, CPU (4+4) pin connector and the 8 pin PCIe connectors. Seems like a possible loose cable. But I have no other ideas what this issue could be. Check Event Logs and Device Manager events to see if that drive has any errors while functioning, this might give further insight on what might be wrong. SMART Data would be great to check too.

  14. Is your Bluetooth dongle integrated into the wifi card, if you have one? Most M.2 wifi cards have bluetooth onboard. But others are integrated into the motherboard. Try reinstalling the entire wifi card device in device manager and see if that gives better results. Or remove the device physically from your system and put it back in.
  15. Agreed! If you happen to actually find a A-to-A USB cable, don't plug it in! Some manufacturers use them for their devices, but they design them to handle it. A vast majority of devices CAN NOT handle a double male USB to be attached as it will damage one or both systems.
  16. None of those will damage your equipment, but some may be incompatible. Linear PCM is the default and will work best for gaming. The other options may have slightly greater fidelity (quality), but only some devices support it. Feel free to switch between them to see if you can hear a difference. If it doesn't work, just simply change it back.
  17. How many audio ports do you have on your system? Some computers have 6 aux jacks for a bunch of different audio configurations. Check the image below and make sure you are using the green jack.
  18. A 3.5mm jack comes in two basic configurations: TRS (Tip-ring-sleeve) [MONO / 1 channel] TRRS (Tip-ring-ring-sleeve) [STEREO / 2 channels]. You would have to use 3 x 3.5mm TRRS cables to achieve this, along with some clever mixing hardware. Both of these cables can carry 5.1 channel audio, but it will be mixed into either mono or stereo. So all speakers will play the same thing. Would a network based solution be applicable? Since they are both computers, use software to stream the audio? or you could get a USB - 5.1 Channel DAC.
  19. Some laptops have different GPU's as desktops, even if it says its a 1660ti, it might be a mobile variant for a laptop, which may have power restrictions / different factory settings. You might have to look at your systems specs / stats and compare them to the Desktop 1660ti to see if they are similar. This happened with my Acer Predator 17X (i7-7820HK - GTX1080), which specifically mentioned it being a desktop GPU, not a mobile one. Check out the screenshot below.
  20. Place both Galaxy Buds in the case and leave case open. Open Galaxy Wearable and pair to them. Try to update as well. But keep them in the case during this process.
  21. Try enabling Gsync or Vsync. My system did that with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and when I enabled vsync, i gained 20ish fps. I also looked for framerate caps in my game settings and Nvidia Control Panel.
  22. In Device Manager, Click "Action"--> "Scan for hardware changes". This will look for connected devices without a driver. It will then reinstall them.
  23. What is the latency (ms) when the CPU is not at 100% utilization?
