Since I upgraded from 8.1 to 10 and never bothered to do a fresh install after, I figured it was time. Then I did some googling and saw some people say they had trouble getting it to work if you had a upgraded windows. Soundcard and graphicscard was always working, wireless card was never even detected by windows. I know about the lack of pci express lanes on this motherboard so I tried PCIEX4 both on auto (which should work) and manually setting it to x1.
Swapped the soundcard and wireless card (so the soundcard was in PCIEX1_3 and wireless in PCIEX4) still not working. So I moved it to the PCIEX1_3 slot directly above the soundcard. First I just installed it in the PCIEX1_1 slot assuming that would be fine. Things I tried before reinstalling windows: And a Soundblaster ZxR in the PCIEX4 slot. Other relevant hardware: I got a Geforce GX980 Strix graphics card in the PCIEX16_1 slot.
The wireless card works in two other computers I have so it's not dead. The chart in this review serves mainly as a note that the card does indeed reach full 10Gbe throughput without issue.I got an Asus Maximus VII Hero motherboard that refuses to find my Asus PCE-AC68 wireless card. Performance for me is superb you can look back at any 10Gbe NAS review I have done over the last few months and note the performance that has come from using this adapter. This also adds to the aesthetic and follows the design of their wireless products, namely the PCE-AC68 and PCE-AC88 I use in testing. We have at least an 8-layer PCB with an anodized aluminum heat sink to pull any heat away from the card. With that said, I must commend ASUS for deploying such an adapter that pushes consumer networking forward, and while I think multi-Gbe will be the future for consumer networks, the ASUS C100C supports all those standards, so it could very well be the only card you need for quite some time.īuild quality of the ASUS XG-C100C is top notch. How many consumers want to upgrade their networks that bad? For instance, the eight port I use for testing NAS was $800. The trouble behind a 10Gbe adapter is it requires more infrastructure than just swapping in a new card. While this certainly signifies the technology is ready for mass adoption, still only a small crowd will see it fit for their home networks. The ASUS XG-C100C is the first 10Gbe copper NIC to be priced within reach of the general consumer.
