-Ping lies between 64 - 200
-match lasts 30-40 minutes
-I play for 1 to 3 hours straight
Can someone help?
Best Answer
if you are on 64 tick , its around 25KB/s (both up+down). if you are on 128 tick , its around 70KB/s (both up+down).
- 64 tick -> 1 hour play -> 87 MB
- 128 tick -> 1 hour play -> 246 MB
you can use application like
- windows resource monitor
- du meter
- NetLimiter
There are a lot software out there that you can track what resource you are using.
