Currently on Orcon's Gigabit Ethernet.
My gaming setup is basic awaiting sane prices on graphics cards.
A FibreMax connection and gaming pack would help with :
Lower latency
More capacity so son (who does game more than I) would be happy if I gamed as well. ;-P
The Razer toys would definitely help me lift "my game". ;-)

Cheers,
Brett.

What is your current broadband conection??

Mobile hotspot off phone

What is your gaming setup??

Wishful thinking with the speeds I am getting.... so I have to find my own fun...

How would a Fibre Pro connection improve your gaming??

Well it would certainly go from a not possible to being an actual hobbie again, just had the new power and phone services run past the base of my place so ready to go...

What is your current broadband connection?

100/30Mbps fibre.

Do you have a gaming setup?

I have a Logitech G500s mouse. But nothing else that is aimed at gamers.

How would a Fibre Pro connection improve your gaming.

Well, the honest truth is, it wouldn't, _directly_ :-D But the savings each month from getting it for free, would quickly add up to more money for new games, and hardware upgrades to the PC I use for gaming. I built my current PC in 2017, so it's ready for an upgrade to play newer games.

"What is your current broadband connection (xDSL, fibre, satellite, dial-up) and do you have a gaming setup?"

I'm already with Orcon Pro fibre! And I sure do have a gaming setup - although only the peripherals are 'up to date', with my PC itself being 7 years old (gasp)

i7-4790k, GTX 1080, 16GB ram, with a Titan Army 27" 1440p monitor, and Logitech G512 (browns) and a G603 mouse.

"How would a Fibre Pro connection improve your gaming?"

It wouldn't really, since I'm already on it! But the biggest thing for me is that with more and more games being on digital download and being more than 60gb, it sure is nice to have gigabit internet to download it all in a couple of hours!

I have no gaming setup (my mechanical keyboard is largely because it looks and sounds pretty).

I have Voda cable with the Super Wifi and it works pretty well.

I've just upgraded my PC so I can actually play some modernish games and having a proper setup would make me feel like a Proper Hack Gamer, so I'll invest in a new hoodie and Matrix wallpaper for my home office.

1. I am currently on a Spark Fibre 300/100 broadband connection.

2. I mainly game on a PS4 Pro these days because a PS5 has proven to be elusive, and my gaming PC is outdated (less powerful than PS4 Pro). I am slowly gathering parts to build a new gaming PC.

3. It would surely improve the speed of my PSN downloads. Despite my fibre connection and having a decent router, it can still take hours to download a large day 1 game update.

Fibre 300Mps

1 Gaming pc shared between 2, older machine but goes pretty well and have new racing sim setup for it. Chair falling apart so Razer Enki X would be perfect.

With 4 adults in house any speed boost would be great, especially when multiple downloads on the go (we live in impatient times! 😀 )

Stuff Fibre. Unlimited. Gaming setup is pretty laim but it is a work in progress. It would definitely improve my gaming setup. I would love a new gaming setup. My boys have an Xbox hooked up.

Posting on behalf of my sons Aircadet Unit. Current internet is Wireless and lucky to get 10mB/s. Current gaming rig is none. A gaming package and Orcon Fibre Pro would allow us to install a flight sim (purely for flight training... honest... :) )

Current plan is Gigabit already (Not with Orcon tho, sorry guys! - but if I win....), but its been fantastic since getting it, having everyone online at once streaming in HD and gaming, no complaints of buffering etc :)

I'm an old school gamer, could really do with a new joystick but bit hard to find these days :)

I've spent 2 years investing in my gaming setups so I will leave this competition to those who need it. Good luck!
