Im getting a new gaming PC soon, and I was wondering if this is fast enough to play games like.. Battlefield 3 and 4, Planetside 2, ARMA 3, etc!

Download: 3.52mbps
Upload: .90
Ping: 27ms

Thanks in advanced!

Should be OK, that's around the same as mine and I get little or no problems, pretty average in the UK (except for main cities)

pretty good but if you wanted to stream you would need around 5 up.

If you build your own computer and try to download games like BF3 it may take you a week. In my opinion your internet speeds are very slow.
i Get around 40Mbps Download, 5 upload, and 12 ping.
So yeah, In my opinion your internet is quite slow.

How are you connecting to the internet?
Wireless Adapter? An Ethernet Box Thing? or are you plugged straight into the router via ethernet cable?

download speed doesn't matter when it comes to online gaming. its about latency(ping). you will be fine. i only got 1mbs but my latency is always low(unless server is hosted from different country). and to the guy who said it will take a week to download bf3, you're wrong. maybe take a day. it took me 2 days to download bf3 (18 Gigs).

I prove my point.
Slow Download Speed = Pain in the butt
simple as that.
