any idea what is the best network cable so far? to have a better connection between your router&computer specially for gaming to increase even at least a bit of speed.
Cat 6 is a 10gig capable cable, whereas cat5 and cat5e can only handle a 1gig connection. Cat6 is thicker, heavier, and needs to meet higher standards for crosstalk and interference than cat5e
I'd suggest going with cat6 whenever possible. Cost is negligible for buying lan cable, you can pick up 20m for a few bucks.
cat6 cables do double the bandwidth of traffic, preventing faster speeds by reducing the number of re-transmitted data packets due to curruption. so theoretically yea i would recommend cat6, but most technology doesnt support it yet. cat6 is currently mainly being used in big corporations for high speed equipment, besides fiber
