    Have you updated the wifi driver to the latest version? You can pick it up below, then verify the performance afterwards.
    http://station-drivers.com/index.ph...Killer-Performance-Suite-Version-1.1.50.1414/
    If problem persists, then try disabling Killer service, see below for instructions, and then verify again.

    Also, where you are playing is different than where you are doing the speed test. Ping is a different measure than download speed and overall speed.

    You can also plug in directly to ethernet to see if your ping improves. That will help determine if its a wifi issue or just a bad server connection which you can't do much about.

    for ping you use pingtest.net and preferably while downloading at 100kbps.
