ISP prices/speeds

[Decimate]

Question for the community: how much are you all paying for internet vs. the speed you get and does it make that much difference in CS:S?

Mine: Texas, Time warner cable, around $70/month, extreme upgrade (up to 300 mb/s), actual 233 mb/s, latency around 9

Comcast, 70 blast pro up to 150 mb/s, usually get from 130-175 mb/s, haven't tried it with css. want to upgrade to xtreme 250 or xl gigabit pro.

rogers 1gb/s $150 canada

I think it is like $60-70 for 100mb here.

[Zuki]

£30 here for Virgin fiberoptic. Get around 130-150 DL

Interesting responses. Those of you getting 100-150 mb/s, what latency are you seeing in game?

Damn Pure, what are you seeing? constant 1?

Reason why I'm asking all this is to see if it's even worth paying for the extra speed boost. I still see a noticable amount of lag even with my DL speed (damn reach around magic 10 ft back knifes) and I played plenty well enough with a 30 latency years ago. I don't play anything else other that CS.

Zero I think you're getting ripped off unless you're playing from South Dakota or something

Where is server located anyways?

mb/s has nothing to do with latency...

Well fuck i'm not the smartest when it comes to mb/s / lag / latency but im pretty sure if I had 56k dial up, it would affect it

care to expand on your comment?

on cs:go my latency is usually anywhere from 20-59

Hmm, from how ive seen you play it doesnt effect you much

i've played with 80+ ping and its really pretty much the same just miliseconds different. u notice it but its not like it will affect ur game play that much. especially if u play on maps that u know.
