1Mbps vs 4Mbps with BF3/Gaming?
Hello fellow gamers.
How are you?
I am fine.
Anyone played BF3 on both 1Mbps and 4+Mbps and can comment on whether they felt a difference?
Reason being, I am considering going from 4Mbps capped to 1Mbps uncapped (mweb) and wondering if I will feel a difference in FPS gaming.

Who are you?
I run a 4Mb line in Cpt and a 1Mb line in Jozi. Gaming is pretty much the same on both (I'm equally shit).
Re: 1Mbps vs 4Mbps with BF3/Gaming?
I can't give you a comparison but I am running on 1MB and I have no problems other than having to wait about 4 hours for the patch to download
Re: 1Mbps vs 4Mbps with BF3/Gaming?
Thank you kindly for your input.
Re: 1Mbps vs 4Mbps with BF3/Gaming?
I would however ask how much data cap you need? You surely don't need it to download series/movies, I can get most of the stuff you may want off the WUG. Although, maybe it's your midget porn collection you're wanting to beef up on?
WebAfrica have a pretty good 50GB package, for R400. I would've thought that would be enough data for you?
Re: 1Mbps vs 4Mbps with BF3/Gaming?
My current package includes:
4Mbps line at R359pm
2GB from Afrihost at R29pm
2GB from WebA at R39pm
I have small caps cos I am away a lot and I normally top up a bit when I return and that would be fine except that every time I get back, I spend the first 2 days downloading patches for Windows, Steam, Origin, BF3, AntiVirus, Web browsers, Office, etc etc etc on both laptop and PC . I end up having to buy more cap to game/surf. Also have 2 others using the web.
Prices for 1Mbps line and Mweb Uncapped = R548. Might even drop slightly if these IPC cuts are passed on to consumers so uncapped is starting to make sense for my needs.

Uumm thats 5 letters representing 5 words, Dennis.
Ya when I am settled in somewhere permanent-ish I will be all over the WUG like a bad rash.
- How does the WUG help wrt gaming though? (in particular BF3)
Re: 1Mbps vs 4Mbps with BF3/Gaming?
Geth, I have a uncapped 1mb line with Mweb and I am very happy
