  2. Slow Download Speed

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft forums.

    • I would suggest you to test the speed using any of the speed test website or app to confirm the upload and download speed.
    • I also suggest you to reset the wireless router to check if that helps.
    • You may plug in the Ethernet cable if available and check the speed.


    Hope the information is helpful. Feel free to write to us for any other assistance with Windows, we’ll be glad to assist you

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

    Laptop disk speeds plummet when I plug it in

    Connectivity Problems - Random, sudden plummets in download speed.

    For two days I'm having problems with my internet speed. I have a high internet speed (usually around 45) using WiFi and I've been experiencing sudden plummets in it that only last less than a second. This is horrible when gaming because it causes my game
    to jitter and it is heavily annoying.

    Here is what I am talking about:

    Also pinging www.google.com shows that every few seconds my ping skyrockets and then goes back to normal:

    I've tried to recover my PC and also reinstall drivers but nothing has worked. I don't know if it's a problem with Windows or if it's a problem with my router, so I'm posting it here.
