Problem description: I built a new computer back in December. A day or two into the new build I noticed a random issue where slowly my computer will start to sound choppy making buzzing sounds through my headphones as the mouse gets slower and slower until it's unusable. The sound will get choppier and buzzier as well. This happens randomly and I can't troubleshoot what the issue is. I've looked at my FPS in game (LoL) and it doesn't get lower when this happens. I've downloaded a temperature monitor and my CPU is well within normal levels. I've gone days without it happening, and sometimes it happens repeatedly after reboots. Typically if I just restart my computer it fixes it. But sometimes, if I restart too quickly it will happen again and I have to leave it off for 15 seconds before restarting. It can also happen right when I turn my computer on. Seemingly no rhyme or reason as to when it happens and when I try searching about it online "random buzzing and slowing down" doesn't really help much. Attempted fixes: Made sure all the wiring seems secure, checked computer temperatures. Recent changes: None. -- Operating system: Windows 11 System specs: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 4.2 Ghz 8-Core Processor Thermalright Peerless Assassin CPU Cooler AS Rock B650 RIPTIDE Wifi Micro Corsair Vengeance RGB 32 GB 2x16 Lexar NM710 2TB EVGA RTX 2060 6 GB Gigabyte UD750GM 750 W Location: Canada I have Googled and read the FAQ: Yes

Thanks, windows is already updated and I've now updated my BIOS to the latest version. If I don't report back, consider the problem fixed!

So unfortunately, that did not fix the problem. It's still occurring. It happened while playing League of Legends, my computer slowed to the point of it being unplayable, but it was still showing 200 frames per second while it was happening. My ping was fine too. Mouse became choppy, sound slowed, etc. Please if anyone has any ideas let me know. It's so frustrating as it's random!

Zogo posted:When the issue happens next I'd run https://www.resplendence.com/download/LatencyMon.exe and see if it finds anything. Ran it 3 different times. The worst one is while it's super laggy to the point that I had to restart my computer. Other two were while my computer seemed fine. Sorry I took photos of two of them lol... Don't know what any of that means though

So I still haven't fixed the issue, although admittedly I haven't tried pulling it apart yet. That's what I'm going to try to do this week, but I have a SECOND problem now on top of the first. Now additionally, my computer cannot connect to the internet. It's not showing any options for WIFI anymore despite the motherboard being a WIFI card AND it isn't recognizing that there is an ethernet cable connected to it. This problem happened a few months ago (just the ethernet part) and I fixed it by buying a new cable. I don't even think now I needed to do that, I just didn't have access to a secondary computer to troubleshoot so I figured why not, I'll spend $15 and see if that fixes it. This now is telling me there's a bigger issue that exists with the MOBO. I doubt the two issues are connected, but they might both be related to the motherboard. Any suggestions about how to figure this out, or might it be better at this point to just take it into a shop. I'd prefer to avoid doing that if possible. 1) Yes I have current drivers 2) Yes I've tried disabling all internet related things restarting and then enabling again 3) yes I've tried a different ethernet cable 4) yes the internet is working for every other device in the home

I tried all of those things and nothing worked. I reinstalled windows and it got stuck and had red lights on my MOBO. I started unplugging and plugging stuff back in, made sure to replug ram in really hard. It worked?? Now I begin to reinstall programs. Thanks everyone! Hopefully I don't have to write back into this thread again.
