I'm struggling with my internet speed. Whenever I need to download a big game—like 30-50 GB—it completely lags out my online gaming experience, and I'm stuck waiting for hours. My average download speed is 70 Mbps, but I'd like to know what speed limit I should set to keep my games running smoothly while still allowing downloads to happen. Any suggestions?

You might need to test it out to find the right balance. I'd recommend starting by limiting your download speed to around 60 Mbps. If you notice lag while gaming, try dropping it by 10 Mbps until you find a sweet spot. Also, pausing downloads while you game can be really helpful, and you can let them run when you're away.
I'll give that a shot! I usually pause when gaming, but sometimes I'm away for so long I don't want to leave my PC doing nothing.
