Why does this faulty Ethernet cable give different speeds?

I have a faulty Ethernet cable that I’m going to replace. But I’ve noticed it gives only 10mbps when plugged into something directly, but when plugged into a switch it gives 100mbps. I just want to know why this is?

Any fix for a faulty Ethernet cable?

So I have a Ethernet cable running from living room to my room into a Ethernet switch. I noticed I was getting terrible speeds (8mbps) via my pc. I thought it was just my small cable connected to the pc from my switch, but found it out all my devices connected to it are getting the same speed so it’s definitely the one connected to the router. It also seems to be fluctuating between 10mbps locked speed and 100mbps (all of the wires are 1000mbps).

Can I run new pc without drivers installed?

So I upgraded my cpu, motherboard, and ram but forgot to backup some important stuff. Could I just plop my old ssd back into the build back it up, and then reinstall windows? Or do I need to download motherboard drivers first to be safe?

What to do after upgrading motherboard and cpu?

So I sold my old am4 build to buy a new am5 build. Thing is….I didn’t reinstall windows or anything and was just going to use the exact same ssd I had in that build. Do I just need to install the motherboard drivers on boot up and everything should be fine?

For a casual gamer do you recommend 7800x3d or 9800x3d?

Recently sold my am4 build for around $500 I was thinking of getting rather the $600 7800x3d micro center bundle or the $680 9800x3d. Both come with 32gb of ddr5 and a motherboard.
My gpu is a 7800xt.

Can I purchase an AMD bundle with a different set of ram?

I see their bundles are out of stock for Corsair vengeance ram but the g.skill ram is still in stock. Will I be able to go in store and ask for that ram instead?
Edit: it’s the same speed and cl36 too.
I also found out I’m able to swap it out via the website. I just added the cpu, mobo, and g.skill ram into my cart and it applied the discount for pickup.

Does someone have my Microsoft account password?

I know everyone has problems trying with bots unsuccessfully trying to sign into their accounts with Microsoft. But I think they have my password because I have the authentication app and I keep getting notifications for sign ins from the US and Japan. This normally only happens when I sign in with my password this has never happened before and now I’ve gotten about 4 attempts in 2 days after changing my password 2 times.

How is one of my case fans flipped and still intake?

Idk how but I’m just noticing now that one of my intake fans are flipped the opposite way from the other two. I tested it with a piece of paper and they all suck in the paper so they are sucking air in.

I have 0 space in the back of my pc for an hdd. So I’m planning on just buying another mount (in pictures) and using a few zip ties on it. I have 2 questions, 1. Will it be safe face down as the pcb will be touching the bottom and 2. Will I even have to zip tie it

Currently I have a am4 build 5800x3d with 32gb of ram. I was contemplating selling my cpu, ram, and mobo for $450. I could get the microcenter 7800x3d for $600. Or should I upgrade my 7800xt to a 9070xt?

Edit: Just decided to buy a 1440p oled and save a little to also upgrade my gpu to 9070xt. Appreciate everyone who commented
