Is it possible to limit the download bandwidth used by Steam?
Active6 years, 11 months ago
For my housemate's sake, I'd like to throttle Steam's download speed (when downloading games). How can I do that?
Also because I have a fast internet connection but a slow (relative to most gamers) computer, when Steam is downloading at 3 MB/s , my computer is unresponsive and unusable.

Steam can pretty much saturate any connection globally Thanks for the info there. I can tell you that i ve never been in that menu and it was set to throttle'. Originally released by LucasArts in 1995, Full Throttle is a classic graphic adventure game from industry legend Tim Schafer, telling the story of Ben Throttle; butt-kicking leader of biker gang the Polecats, who gets caught up in a tale of Motorcycles, Mayhem and Murder.
May 18, 2014 Thank you I did pause or stop some of the downloads. Now I can wait to play while Steam updates my games. Either way seems like a gotcha. It is easy to get caught up in all the great deals, then 1 day you have 178gigs or more of games just at Steam. However, Steam downloads, like many other file downloads, are measured in multiples of bytes per second. A byte is a group of 8 bits. To compare your Steam download speed to your connection speed, multiply your Steam download speed by 8.

Pcsx2 bios. I would recommend using a third party program to forcibly limit Steam's downloading speed. I've been using a program called NetLimiter for a while now, which allows for program-specific download/upload speed caps. It's useful for a variety of other applications as well.
