Hey guys,
I'm wondering if you can help me review my uTorrent settings to see what I could do to improve my Torrent speeds.
I recently built a new computer from scratch, and the first couple months my speeds were steady, but then one day I've noticed a drop in speeds using uTorrent. I started messing with settings, following different guides, enabling / disabling things, and this has been going on for close to 1 month now.
I even had a cable guy come check everything to make sure things were working correctly, cuz I just can't seem to get steady speeds when downloading Torrents.
I am running the latest version of uTorrent, my ports are properly forwarded with my router.
Below I will provide a screenshot of ALL my uTorrent settings, perhaps a fresh set of eyes can help.
You'll notice at the top I downloaded Nvidia's latest drivers today @ 1224 KB/s, which is what uTorrent used to download at steadily. Now, I'm lucky if I get past 500 KB/s, it usually fluctuates between 100 KB/s - 300 KB/s.
I download from RTT, TL, SCC, HDBits, bitmetv, there are almost always seedboxes to download from, and in the past my connection would immediately max out.
I hope that covers all the info you may need, and I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Here are my computer specs in case that makes a difference, I really doubt it's the computer, since you'll notice in the screenshot that I'm able to max out my speeds quite easily.
Windows 7 Ultimate ( Windows Firewall )
i7 - 930 overclocked to 4.0 GHZ
6 GB Ram
1 80 GB SSD
1 TB Internal Drive
2 x 1 TB External Hard Drives
GTX 460
I've tried downloading to ALL 3 hard drives including the SSD drive to see if that would make a difference, and it doesn't.
Below is a screenshot of my settings, which I have tested and played with so much that I've lost track over the past month.
Any and all feedback is welcomed, thanks in advance!
