    VPN and online gaming

    I see. I guess I will have to turn off the VPN for gaming then. That's not a problem. It's just that I've read that VPN's can actually help to decrease ingame ping, but this is not the case.

    VPN and online gaming

    Hi, thanks for the reply. But when enabling the VPN I can choose the server location which is in the same country of the no VPN server: this means that choosing the server location has no sense?

    Hi all, it seems it was indeed a driver problem. I used Driver Easy and Driver Booster to update drivers and now the download speed is fast and stable as before. I don't know which one of the driver updates fixed the problem, but it works now. Thanks all for the advices!

    Steam and Samsung 990 PRO and Firecuda 530 download speed

    Hi all, thanks for the repllies. At the moment I have only tried to install games on them. But since they should be both faster than the 970 PRO I can't understand why the writing speed can't keep up with the download one while the 970 PRO has not such a problem. As I said when reaching 35Mbs...
