Sabertooth 990fx Rev 2.0 motherboard, the onboard ethernet NIC has totally broken. As in, when I install the driver (realtek) it says its in deep sleep mode possibly.
Nothing in device manager for it at all, but thats not where the weirdness stops.
So I have used several PCI/PCIe gigabit network cards, now I cant as I have all the slots populated with RAID cards and 2x1080ti's so literally have no room to put one.
I bought a gigabit > usb 3.0 connector, but it seems to give me some of the most shocking speeds through it. Its plugged into a USB 3.0 port but for the life of me cannot work out why - CAT6e cable too.
Has anyone got a clue as to why :
- Onboard ethernet is not working (I head about taking the cmos and RAM out of the mobo to reset it)
- Why my usb 3.0 to gig NIC runs like poo?
