Yo. I got fine ping (80-100-ish), like 1mb/s when I download patches on HoN, but still I get these sick spikes while playing. It doesn't lagg at home where I got a worse internet, any ideas? Is it my computer itself or the internet? My computer gets fucking hot sometimes, is that the cause?

can be

-ur computer
-ur interwebs connection
-server u play on

if u constantly get them its prolly ur pc
i remember playing on a shit server had like 45 ping but constant dc icon

Crap, gonna try getting it to work on my mac, it always fucks up on it.

there is a euro ISP that sucks dick, could be unlucky and get matched up on those servers

Figured it was my computer, it helped a lot just holding up the pc and let the fan run a bit. Also, does music make it hotter? From spotify I mean

using more resources means more heat means your computer gets hotter when you use spotify

how hot? probably not that much

you should clean the dust out of your case

this, clean the dust from your fan, you can spray it with the air can, my comp would freeze every 5mins when i played hon cause the dust got so thick my fan wasn't working properly. also you might want to invest in a cooling pad if you're using a laptop.

It doesn't lagg here at home, where my internet is actually slower.
