I recently built a PC for myself and my brother, both using the same specs—an AMD Ryzen 7800X3D and a TUF B650E-E WiFi motherboard. The only difference is my GPU is NVIDIA while his is AMD. Lately, he's been having a problem with his WiFi; sometimes the drivers are available, but other times they just vanish, and he can't connect to any WiFi. I've tried deleting, updating, and reinstalling the drivers, but nothing seems to work. Has anyone else faced this issue or found a fix?

That sounds odd. It might be a conflict with the driver installation. Maybe he could pause Windows updates when the WiFi driver is working, then see if that resolves the issue. As a backup, getting a USB WiFi adapter could help too, although that will cost a bit.
Have you thought about doing a Windows reinstall through the update option? It should be a simple in-place repair and shouldn’t mess with his files at all.
Thanks, I hadn't heard of that before. I'll definitely give it a shot!
I'm actually in the same boat with that Microcenter bundle! Generally, I've found Asus boards to be pretty reliable with drivers, while Gigabyte can have a few issues. Hoping everything goes smoothly when I set mine up tonight. Good luck!
Allright, thanks man.
Yeah, I was considering a USB adapter but want to try fixing it for free first. Appreciate the advice!
