I have a 1G symmetric line and with a fast enough disk write setup I can hit ~108MB/s for Steam downloads and still be on video calls and stream content simultaneously (different people usually). It’s definitely not wasted for us.
- was_a_dev 5y agoFrom what I can tell, with Steam, I limited by the datacenter itself. I have friends in my local area, and also nearer the same datacenter, all on much higher bandwidths and write speed, but still hit 10Mbps at best. Saying that, I am no Steam power-user. Most games will be <10GB with updates <1GB At this point, I have no services or use cases for anything faster.
