Ahh good, sounds like a driver issue with the realtek rtl8125. Which OS are you using ?]]> Wed, 17 Jul 2019 10:46:31 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11866&PID=64884&title=2-5g-nic-slow-transfert-speeds#64884 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11866&PID=64839&title=2-5g-nic-slow-transfert-speeds#64839 Author: TanC

Typical gigabit transfer speeds are between 113 - 117 MB/s sustained in either direction.

Cables are new quality LSZH Cat6A cables, lengths typically 2m-3m between PC and switch. Switch to Switch is fiber optic. Transfer speeds are the same for HDD to HDD, NVMe to NVme. I have no SATA SSDs.

Unplugged and replugged cables. Rebooted PCs and switches.

There are PCs on 10G and they transfer at up to 1000MB/s. Other PCs on 5G transfer at up to 400MB/s. It's only the ASRock boards with the on-board NICs that are having issues. ]]> Mon, 15 Jul 2019 09:03:13 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11866&PID=64796&title=2-5g-nic-slow-transfert-speeds#64796 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11866&PID=64781&title=2-5g-nic-slow-transfert-speeds#64781 Author: badbri

I have an ASRock Z390 Phantom Gaming 9 and a Gaming 6.

On both the PCs, with the 2.5G LAN drivers installed I am getting speeds for 40-50MB/s transferring files TO my server. Files are being transferred to Samsung 970 Pro 1TB.

The PCs are connected to Netgear MS510TX switches on the 5G ports. I've also tried the 2.5G and 10G ports on the switch but the speeds are the same.

Tried copying 6 x 1.5GB files, 1 x 10GB file, 1 x 20GB file.

Are there some settings I need to change for the NIC?

I notice the NIC doesn't support Receive Segment Coalescing (RSC), so that's not the cause. I've also tested with Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) enabled and disabled on the switch.

The ASRock boards PCs are running Windows 10 1809. The server is running Windows 2012 R2. CPUs are 9600K and 9700K respectively.
