After running a series of benchmark tests, I am still bamboolzed (to say the least) about what color CAT-5 cable will give me maximum performance. After seveeral hours of searching, i have narrowed down my final competitors to Red and Grey.
Red-..obviously a bit more flashy, perhaps this could attract women at LAN parties. After extensive review, i noticed a 02.43% descrease in latency times, yet a higher rate of packetloss. Now- should i go with the devil-may-care attitude that is this three feet of fiery red cable, risk it all in a high stakes game of low pings and high packetloss,or should i go with...
Grey-..the old regime, the old way. As i said before, my pings were substantially higher, but I'm playing it safe, going the beaten path. Although the James Dean factor of this particular cable is substantially lower, I will most likely get respect from the older, wiser techs, for i am using a tried and true formula for success....i am using grey!
There was a purple option, but i fear ridicule about my sexual orientation if i were to purchase such.
Any comments, benchmarks or advice would be appreciated.
