10 GBit symmetrical. Which is a bit useless, since my motherboard only supports 1 GBit, but it's good to be ready for the future, I suppose.

You could get a 10 Gbps network card for under $100

And ensure the router and the ethernet cable support that. But yeah.

I could, but in reality, I barely ever max out even the 1 GBit. Steam is probably the only service that comes to mind. And whether I download a new game in 10 minutes or 1 minute doesn't really matter...

I cant even max out my 1gbit with steam because they use compression and my CPU just cant decompress fast enough.

You just need 9 more PCs with the same motherboard on em!

I absolutely have to do that. This is the kind of valuable insight I can only get in a place like Lemmy!
