I use to get 160 MB/s now I peak at 22 MB/s

[Sexy Maid Nidalee]

So I use to download on steam around 160 MB/s peak, but my hard drive was dying and would often bring it down with very fluctuating disk usage. I went out and bought a m.2 SSD so i could get the most out of my steam download speed. Now my download speed doesn't fluctuate but its just at a solid 22 MB/s. I now have really high disk usage and what was once 160 MB/s is now only 22.0 MB/s.

Note. I did a fresh install of windows on my new drive and don't have the only one in my pc anymore.

Throttling and other factors limit what we can do with downloads. It is frustrating. I have gigabit internet and unfortunately on Xbox Live I only get 300+ MB/s max. : S As for Steam it has been worse. Now yes when downloading to an SSD it seems to improve things as the data gets to the drive faster but still I don't see what I want to see. Way she goes unfortunately.

good luck with that mine is 1.0 MB/s

The speed of your ssd has nothing to do with internet download speeds.

Reboot your router and try a different download location including the other side the world from where you as people are buying and downloading during the sale so it puts additional strain on the servers.

It has nothing to do with internet speeds but seems to matter with throughput or whatever. The quicker it gets on the drive the less there is a bottleneck or whatever. Also it could be that someone has a router, modem or ethernet card or built in port that does not allow for faster speeds. Some of that is unlikely but could be the case with the OP.

tnx it worked

Any chance you can say what you did?

(I won't question the megabits and megabytes numbers... it seems like those numbers are all miscontrued by people anyway between the local disk speed and the actual internet download speed. If I could get 300MB/s internet speed for the price I am paying for 1/10th that, I'd be able to provide free wifi for the whole neighborhood)

The OP used "downloading" and why I replied accordingly based upon the wording.

If the OP is referring to disk write speeds they should have made that clear in their post.

Well, that depends.

Here on Steam it defaults in MegaBYTES per second so it tends to throw people off. You must multiply the result there on the download screen by 8 to get what your ISP usually tells you.

If it's still off, then you should look to see what the green line on the download page is doing. If it's not keeping up, then that's your disk drive (or CPU).

However, we're in the midst of the summer sale and servers are hit HARD both this week and at least next. Learn to do the region dance. Avoid making the mistake that many make by thinking you change download region to somewhere close - it aint; online gaming! Ping aint relevant.

Chances are if your region is congested, your neighbours will be too. So, go to Google and look up global timezones. Find anywhere where it's around 2 to 4 am - pick any of those countries. You might have to go through a couple to find somewhere that works well.

I hear you. Just that anything one can throw into a post in a thread like this can help out the OP or others. Have a good weekend eh.
