How is PC Gamer this fucking retarded

How so?
The difference between a $15 802.11n 1x1 SISO router and a $150 802.11ac 3x3 MIMO router with DFS is certainly noticable in terms of latency and bandwidth, especially if you live in a crowded area.
Do these actually help with latency? Or is OP just a faggot dickriding anti gaymen movement?
If I'm on Wifi I usually get 100Ms of latency, on a wire I get about 40Ms while playing.

Because they're sponsored to shill. They get revenue from Asus for advertising their arachnid routers.

2.4 GHz in a crowded area?
Try 802.11ac @ 5 GHz with DFS
The latency will be almost indistinguishable from Ethernet.
But don't tell anyone about 5 GHz so the frequency bands remain free.
to be honest i trow away my ruter and get gigabit ciso switch, becouse fuck lags and it imporved a lot.
My ISP forces me to use their shitty fucking router. Can I Sue them g?
Best bang for the buck VDSL2 router? I don't need usb or crap features just modem+router+wifi.

to be fair it isn't fun playing around in the ui of my att router that takes 10+ seconds to load a page
But the asus routers are good aren't they?
>>51433122
ac still isn't comparable to ethernet
yeah anything 5ghz is a lot better than 2.4, but ethernet is still 20+ms faster

Why don't you just turn off the antennas and put it in a DMZ, that's what I did with my FIOS router. Using a linksys with tomato USB.

100 megaseconds is pretty bad, bro

2ms to my router over WiFi and that's just 802.11n @ 2.4 GHz

of course tiny little pings are going to be quick
but when you are sending larger packets more often wireless chokes

wifi is just good to connect your laptop or smartphone to the network, if you use it on a desktop pc you should probably kill yourself

A 802.11ac connection gets you at least 350 Mbit/s net bandwidth.
Then even 64 KB packets take less than 2 ms.
64 kilobyte / (350 megabit/s) ~ 1.5 ms

gaymers will buy anything if it has LEDs in it.
>>51433897
That isn't how latency works.

I use wifi on my desktop, currently playing for a semi pro team in cs go, u mad?

Should have spent more on your crappy router faggot,
