how's it going everybody welcome back and today we're going to be taking a look at the gaming
capabilities specifically of course with regards to ping uh of both expressvpn and stuff so before
we get if you guys are interested in any of these vpns you'll find special deals and discounts in
the description down below as well as full reviews if you'd like to learn more about these vpns
so you know if you're looking to access foreign markets to gain access perhaps to games that are
not yet available in your region uh maybe change your store location whatever it is either of these
vpns will work just fine but if you're talking ping this is what i'm about to show you guys today
starting with no vpn so i've tested three regions now just so that you guys know without disclosing
my relocation i'm right next to cyprus i'm very close to cyprus so when i do game i
connect to european servers so just so you guys can kind of get a sense of my location
just so that all these numbers can make a little bit more sense
so without a vpn connecting to the french server we're going to be looking at the median by the
way not the average because the average can be ruined by a slight spike like this for example
so we're going to be taking at the center of numbers here meaning the medium
so 58 59 and 56 i tested it three times i tested i made three tests each uh time with each server and
keep in mind i am using the same server in each of these tests so uh you'll notice here it'll be edis
in every single uh test here uh and including all the other regions so i tested france new york and
milan italy milan and i'm always using i'm making sure that i'm using the same server to test it out
so without a vpn it's a 58 59 and 56 with expressvpn you'll be able to tell here because
i changed the url just so that you guys can tell which which one i'm testing here i got a
58 and 58 very consistent results arguably even sometimes better than what i got without a vpn
but uh it's great overall with surf shark i got a 59 58 and 58 so roughly the same um you know
we got a lower number here with expressvpn but i wouldn't really count that i mean
in terms of paris here the french server i would say both vpns are on an equal footing
now when i connected to the new york server obviously when connecting to game servers
you don't want to connect that far away if if you're in the european region or close to the
european region as it is in my case you don't want to connect to the far east or the far west
you want to stay within your region if you want to maintain good ping no matter which vpn you use no
matter what measures you take if you're going to connect to other continents your ping will suffer
no matter what you do so here in the case of new york without a vpn i got a median of
144 138 and 138. so with expressvpn a little bit of a more consistent uh
result here with 138 139 and 139 and with surf shark interestingly enough 136 136 and 135.5
so yeah it gave me slightly better results than express vpn when connecting to the new york server
um yeah either way i mean i wouldn't really recommend to connecting to far away servers
so okay now without a vpn with the milan server i got a 64 63 and 66 with expressvpn we got 64
63 and 62. uh yeah arguably this is better uh yeah clearly this is better uh than without a vpn than
the results without a vpn uh so i'm liking the consistency here with expressvpn and now with uh
surf shark we got a 67 67 and 68. so uh yeah three to four points higher than expressvpn now you know
whether or not uh you think these vpns are worth uh your investment is up to you i just wanted
to show you guys the ping here the results and it's really up to you to make the final decision
whether uh surf shark or expressvpn could be the better choice for you here it's up to you so make
what you will of these results besides that if you're interested in learning more about these
