Hmm, probably means 100Gb for two reasons. First, it's Gigabits (Gb) not Gigabytes (GB), probaby just the font though.
Second, I don't think I've ever seen a 91 Gb/s transceiver, there's 100 Gb, 50 Gb, etc., but not 91Gb. Unless this is a combined number.
squishybaker
latency is more important that bandwidth for gaming.
HelloMyNamesInigoMontoya
Some of the worlds greatest minds, 91 GB/Sec Internet speed and I bet they still scream at the TV cause their Netflix buffers for no reason.
DavidBrooker
Netflix throttles their own services if it thinks you're on a metered connection, whether you are or not.
someguyfromnowhereclose
Let's not forget the 4000 or so people they have to share that connection with. That will slow it down.

DOWNLOAD MEANS NOTHING AND NASAL IS TOO FAR AWAY FROM LA AND CHICAGO WHERE THE SERVERS ARE. PING IS KING.
I apologize for caps. Just frustrated I can't improve my ping.

When kids scream lag because there was 1-2 frames skipped. I remember when lag involved running still then teleporting into the wall across.
Greyeyes1973
God I miss SOCOM2 on my PS2 with the network adapter
BrantRecon
That speed doesn't mean anything if the latency is still over 50ms.
secretoaster
Ultra 8k porns, all day, all night.
kaedmus
That speed would be rather overkill for a regular household.
Daerynsura
GB or Gb?
UnworthyBean
Being pedantic here, it's 91Gb/s and not 91GB/s. If the text wasn't all caps this would have been noticeable.
Also I realise this post is now 4 weeks old. Woops. Slowpoke.jpg

You would have all the bandwidth in the world, it doesn't matter when the server has a shit connection.
IamaWalrusInDisguise
Intranet between a select few other facilities, not internet.

The dream of every gamer is a stable connection.
GasBandit
Bandwidth means nothing. Low ping time (latency) is what gamers crave. I had a 1mbit DSL that had lower ping times than my cable modem.
JustQuitSmoking
99% of people don't know the difference between latency and bandwidth, it seems; and how lag is caused.
TheRealRinkashime
Is that how pro teams succeed? Didn't realise fnatic cloud 9 NiP and that lot had connections with NASA!!!
Ryovile
That is almost as fast as the internet speed in a Romanian village from the country side. Good job, Murica!
aCoolBreezeOnAHotSummerDay
Somewhere along the pipe your data is flowing at that speed. It's just also flowing through a 100 Mb pipe
bigeasy44
Also the heat generated by speeds that high has got to be immense.
They use the same tiles to cool it as they use on the space shuttle. And it's hard to make enough for the entire pipe.
NightlinerSGS
Doesn't do shit when the other end and the infrastructure in between don't support that speed though. :)
jadespider
stupid copper infrastructure...
Pris0nMike
But they are not connecting to just one infrastructure. They probably have massive links going all over the place.
GodOfTheBumbleBees
Which is irrelevant, unless you are hosting a NASA LAN party
So it's not "High Speed Internet", but "High Speed Connections to very specific places."
Imagine your house's bandwidth, streaming netflix on 50 computers at a time.
...Netflix is not one of those specific places though :p

The Internet speed that this post is referring to is more like an intranet set up. They have a 91 gig data transfer rate to other...
Nasa facilities, not to the open internet. I would assume is for doing science and shit.
PyroAvok
A consumer SSD does only 6 Gb/s. 91 is fucking insane. I smell bullshit.
I understand your point but, NASA isn't just a consumer. Check out bonded fiber Internet connections, m.2 sata drives, and raid setups.
Yeah, I'd figure that a multimillion dollar space and science institute could get like 10x what we could, but it's still more than that.
rensm005
Games?.....that speed is for all the porn
MrT800
If that's really GB/s and not Gb/s, then we plebs don't even have RAM that can read or write that fast...

Just FYI, that's the biggest American flag in the world, each star is 6 feet and the blue part is as big as a regulation basketball court.
DrDherp
I used to work for NASA, and I was really hoping this was true. But having a hard time substantiating. Source?
you can wiki it but I was told on a tour of the Space Center
Apparently it once was the largest (76) but no longer is.
VinnieJonesDiary
That's crazy! You definitely wouldn't forget what country you were in with that around!
DontAskMeAboutMyUsernameOkay
0ms ping, 9001 fps. Still yell "Fucking lag" when you die.
turbulentlizard
Fuckin casuals, I raided vanilla wow with 16k ping. Fairly sure it was higher but I don't think wow could show more than 16k.
rubbarz
Its the crosshair.
Darksabata
You can still blame it on packet loss
Shh. Shh. Don't let the commoners know
Jusmar
"Fucking lag you piece of shit!" *stomps keyboard to pieces in garage*
summitshow
9001fps... Yeah dude, about that...
Obviously it's exaggerated.
HenryInTwoForks
Yeah the eye can only see 30 FPS
The eye can see as little as 13 milliseconds studies show, so... 1000/13 = 76. 923 etc. So the eye can actually see about 77 if properly 1/2
MemeCollectingGeneralGrievous
T R I G G E R E D
Studies show that the eye can see 13 milliseconds. 1000/13 is roughly 77, the eye can see just under 77fps if properly trained. 1/2
It's the brains proccessing of the information that made people think 30 was the most we can see. Sorry, had to debunk what a triggered 2/3
Person said.
CallMeJerryBecauseIAmJerry
Dark Souls PvP in Cape Canaveral is fine?
IronicUsername
I'll just be that guy who points out that more bandwidth doesn't equate to reduced latency or increased FPS.
TwoVhsCopiesOfGoodfellas
Yes but chances are gigabit internet will have less latency than 2mb in bumfuck nowhere
You mean a better bandwidth doesn't improve my graphics card? Since when. And here I thought NASA would have state-of-the-art technology!
You joke but a lot of people don't know the difference between latency and bandwidth and/or think connection speed affects FPS.
radieon
Kid on LOL kept blaming 6000ms lag when dying. Anything over 2 seconds, I'm playing single player Minecraft
Thornaxe
When I played WOW we had a semi-casual guy from Australia who never had less than 2500 lag. He was a great tank for Kara, but god knows how.
sangheraj
I was playing on a mine raft server and my ping randomly spiked up to 360000. No fucking joke.
WinstonChurchmountain
Eh. Where I live, we have random lag spikes. Will be working fine, and suddenly my ping's at 18k on League, out of fucking nowhere.
itslmaonade
Used to have the same problem. No one ever believed it in game. But now we can ping our ping :)
AbridgedKirito
The fps... IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!
[deleted]
Who the fuck would be using wifi at 91GB/S. Hardwire that bitch. And fps can still count for screen lag. Not net lag.
Polarbit
Goodluck finding a 9001Hz monitor though :P
For all we know they have one that's better.
Togol
i wonder if you can actually see 9001hz monitor, or if its to fast for the eye
TytenV2
what about nerve cell lag?
The deleted comment said something about fps not having to do with your network latency.
JohnnyDeformed
Speed is not the same as latency. High bandwidth can still lag. Lag is the enemy, not download rates.
ifitaintbroke
Touché
draco91
No, but both are important. 1 ms pimg with 500kb/s DL won't be any good either.
It's more important for gaming. You don't stream that much data playing a game.
iAintNoSynthDammit
every freakin game i buy only has 70% of the game on the disc, back when i had 300 kb/s internet it would usually take several hours
if not an entire day to even reach a point where i could play
More specifically, gitter. High steady latency is okay to a degree, but rapid and varying change in latency is the real killer!
RockerFoxes
If someone else is lagging like mad it can still fuck you up to. May get a perfect 30 ms but the enemy gets 900 ms then they are unhittable
norill
this is why automatic pingkicks are needed
JaxAndHisLampPost
Not necessarily the enemy, but the server.
thoushaltnotpass
You only need the bandwidth necessary for a particular application, but less latency is always better
cLOLe
Yeah so many people don't get this. I have really good internet (for non-fiber), and it's not like I can play anywhere and have 0 ping.
ILOVEFARTING
This is refreshing to see.

SQM is life yo
As a former network technician. Why cant there be more reasonable people like you?
SoulHeart
Because average person sucks, that means more than half.
davman41
I actually forced my internet provider to lower my connection speed as it gave me a lower ping time and a more stable connection.
The "tech" guy thought I was nuts
FindYourChillMate
Because people dont look that deep. I had to go through 3 levels of people at my internet company until i got someone who knew what ping was
Trollslegur
I don't know why ping is so hard for some to understand. It's just how long it took to send a signal and get a response in milliseconds.
TugAndChug
After a point, sure. Slow internet still sucks now that you have to download any game to play it.
Rivalyn
This is why I can't play some MMOs right now. My download rates are fine, but every 30-60 seconds my ping jumps to 800-1500 for no reason.
MBulow
Mmm my pings always at a stable 25 ms (had the same problem as you before thought)
UpvoteSquirrel
That's because of packet loss. The data doesn't make it to your end so has to resend thus causing a spike Its on the ISP end so can't fix it
I'll say. I'm Canadian, so my choices are unmaintained infrastructure or soul-selling contracts.
FriendlyNeighbourhoodCanadian
Rural? New technology is coming to give fibre rates over copper.
Canadian ISPs are some of the worst in the developed world. They're Crown Corporations, which gives them way too much leeway.
HighImpactSexualViolence
It's not much better in the US, 90+% of locations have either 1 or 0 high speed providers.
Lefty2k59
I'd still blame my deaths on lag.
Darjanator
Higher speed don't necessarily mean lower latency. :(

I would blame it on the cold weather and the fuel tank detaching.

Well, if you're getting 1kbps that's going to mess you up...
They both matter, but above a certain speed there will be no difference in gameplay.
