something is wrong with my download speed (but only in certain apps). In steam when i download a game it is just as fast as my internet speed. but when i download stuff in the browser or in epic games launcher for example i get about 300kB/s. This has me thinking it has something more to do with my m.2 ssd (corsair mp600 pro nh), but i really have no idea. Does someone know how to fix this problem?

Open task manager, go into performance tab, then download.
Whichever is at 100% usage is the culprit. Otherwise, your browser and epic games has a bandwith limit, look in settings.

If the speed is fine through steam, it's definitely not going to be your m.2 ssd. Like @Eigenvektor asked, try speedtest.net and post the results. If that test comes back as expected, it's more than likely something else,such as a setting in epic or your browser.

 

On the topic of browsers, you can try other browsers too, maybe do a fresh install of firefox if you don't already have it, and try the speedtest.net test without any additional addons or extensions.
