My computer us about 4 months old and it's been having some problems with the network card. The Network card is an Asus pce-n15 Network card and it only performs normally in one specific pce slot on my motherboard. This is a problem because for me to use this spot, I have to put my GPU over of my power supply, giving the GPU's fan one inch of space and the airflow becomes terrible. If i were to put the card in a different slot, then my computer would randomly stop doing whatever it was it was doing. Like for example, lets say I was loading a video (or really anything in general), my computer would stop loading. This happens for at most 1 minute. Within that minute or so, I cannot open anything on my computer, even start task manager. After that minute is over, my computer goes back to normal and opens up anything that I did within that time interval. Another problem is that instead of not being able to do anything, it would seem like it disconnected from internet for up to 3 minutes, but it would say that I'm still connected to the internet. The last problem is that my computer would randomly freeze completely and randomly. This occurs more often when I download stuff. I've already tried reinstalling the drivers that are on the disc, which is up to date, and installing older drivers on the Asus website. I've already confirmed that the problem is coming only from my network card and the network card alone since when I take it out and use a lan cable, my computer works flawlessly.
Thanks!
