Which is best server combination?

Post by -=)VgS(=-[|]One[|] »

Alright, i am running Counter strike right now in an 18 man server. Now which one of these is better?

Verio Connection
High CPU Priority
Ping Booster

OR

JUST a Level3 Connection

???

For some odd reason, i just upgraded to the ping booster and there have been quite a few complaints of major lag spikes. For me i am fine, i ping in at 70ish, but others i see ping from 70-150 real quick. So i was wondering if maybe just upgrading to a totally new connection would help. Any advice would be greatly appreciated thanks!

Which server is yours so that we can tell which machine it runs on?

I would go for Level3 Connection

When my server was on Level3 you would not see pll over 100 ping :lol:

Level3 with pingbooster would be ideal. :D

Just because Level 3 is a better network, I would go with them. My server is on the Internap network and its sweet. If I lived in Cali I would have gone with Level 3.

And if you look at it. An 18 slot server with a ping booster would cost you $92.98 on Verio. And the same server on Level 3 without a ping booster is $97.32. If it were me and I was basing my decision of pings. I would still go with Level 3 because I ping 38 there without a ping booster. And if I take the claim of -10 ping with the use of a booster I would still ping 60 on Verio. :o

Level 3 with a ping booster would be ideal. :wink:

Oops. I typed my last statment wrong.

Level 3 with a ping booster would be ideal in your situation. But, if you dont want to add that Id just go with the Level 3 connection. :wink:
