Did CS, but did not complete/dropped out. Main PC: - Ryzen 5 5600X - RTX 3060ti - 32 GB RAM Laptop (my partner uses this more than me): - Ryzen 7 5800H - RTX 3050 - 16 GB RAM

Did you try a clean install (using DDU) of your drivers after upgrading to Windows 11? Also would help to know what extensions you might be running on Chrome.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but what about performance/pro-level FPS headphones? Particularly the ones by AceZone. They start at 319 Euros, which is pretty insane, so I was wondering if the performance is worth the price. There's also this video by a CS tournament commentator/analyst (Launders):

Any other games/apps that do this? Have you tried any troubleshooting steps? Could be as simple as reconnecting the cables on your monitor. Do you also have multiple monitors on?

I think I fixed it. It was my DNS settings. I was using Cloudflare's DNS and Quad9, and somehow they were causing an issue. So if you're encountering something similar, check your DNS settings.

Something that can not only fit nicely into the case, but is sturdy and easy to assemble. I've found that the ones that mount directly to the PCI brackets are the most finicky, so free standing ones are the best bet. In terms of design, I'd like for my ideal GPU bracket to fit seamlessly with the case, like it's an accessory from the case or GPU manufacturer. If you look at beefy GPUs (RTX 3090s or 4090s) some manufacturers include an anti-sag bracket, especially for the higher end cards, maybe you can draw inspiration from there. Hope this helps!

Bumping this thread as I am still facing the issue. I have done the following: - Reset the links on my powerline and PC - Ran /sfc scannow; no problems found - Reconnected the physical Ethernet cables on my PC Jitter is still acceptable at <5 ms, sometimes <2 ms at non-peak hours. I should also add that this issue seemingly happened out of nowhere. A couple days ago everything was fine.

It's actually powerline. Also the link you sent doesn't work for me, but I used Cloudflare's speed test to check jitter and it's <5 ms. Should I restart my entire powerline system? Haven't tried that but it might be worth a shot.

Okay, so this is hard to explain, but just hear me out... My PC has randomly started to feel slower/sluggish, but only doing certain tasks. Most notably, when I open Discord and Steam, these apps normally checks for updates, but this checking process seems to take way longer than what it used to be. I'm talking like from <10 seconds (if there are no updates) to >1 minute. Not a big deal, but weird. The next thing I noticed is that Steam games take a while to start updating. This is hard to explain too, but it will just be stuck on "Updating" with no progress, then fail and claim that I have no internet connection, even when my connection is perfectly fine. I've attached the screenshot showing this in Steam below, and also a Cloudflare speed test. (Yes, my Internet speeds are slow compared to some, but it should be more than fine to play/download games) I'm at a loss as to what might be causing this slow down. It's weird. So far, I've done the following troubleshooting steps: - Ensured Windows is up to date (I am on Windows 11) - Ensured GPU drivers are up to date - Scanned my PC for viruses using ESET Internet Security (all clear) - Ran ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renew and ipconfig /flushdns - Ran chkdsk with no errors - Restarted my PC multiple times - Ran CrystalDiskMark on my PC for both SSDs (all performing within spec) So, yeah, it's weird and I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this further. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

Can't imagine it was easy rejecting a $100M offer But best of luck in your new role, Linus!

Are the files hidden or encrypted by the SSD itself? It's possible that your laptop's USB port may not be providing enough power for the SSD. You could also try using a different cable if you have one. Make sure to safely eject the drive too.

Stock Ryzen 5 5600X with latest chipset drivers.

Yes, probably one of the better open-sourced file transfer programs. You could also try WinSCP.

Clear your browser cookies and cache, and see if that improves the situation.

If you're a student, you can get a key for free via your school or OnTheHub. (It'll be the education version) If you have access to a Windows 7 key, then install Windows 7 and then upgrade it to Windows 10 for free by following this guide. (I think the Windows 10 installer accepts Windows 7 and 8 keys) Windows 10 can be used for free but you will constantly have a "activate Windows" watermark.

No.

Are there any beeps? How is your monitor connected to your GPU? Is it via VGA, DP, or HDMI? Might be the way your monitor is interacting with your GPU port.

Teamviewer has nothing to do with your SSD not showing up. Perhaps you will need to format your SSD.

Current picks: Dell XPS 13 9300 Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 (4th Generation Ryzen version) Razer Blade Stealth 13" 2020 HP Spectre x360 HP Envy x360 Huawei Matebook Pro By far the cheapest for me would be the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7. I can get it for ~$900 USD with Lenovo's student discount but it would take 2 months to ship as it's back-ordered. If anyone can weigh in, let me know! Else, I'm likely going to wait 2 months for the Lenovo.

The FEAR series.

There might be something stuck in your fans. Use an air duster to try and blow it out before tearing your GPU apart.

When you power it on, does it beep or do the fans come on too, or does it not power on at all? It might be your RAM or CPU not being seated properly on the motherboard.

Did you install it correctly...?

Not taking any sides here but Apple do have a monopoly on Apple devices. You cannot side-load software on an iOS phone, unlike with Android. Not to mention that Apple also holds a ~30% market share in smartphones.

It can take up to 24 hours for DNS records to update. When did you start doing this?
