My download speeds at my apartment complex are pathetic. I mean really bad. Like right now as I type this I'm downloading SC onto my new rig at 140KB/s. It was 20KB/s a few minutes ago. The downloader time said 5 days at one point...

Enough ranting though; would I be able to download things such as: Curse Client, Raidcall, battle.net client, lolclient, bf4, steam, etc onto a flash drive and then just transfer the files over?

 

thanks,

TB

YOu should be able to download just the clients needed to download the games over, I have never heard of Installing and transfering them over once installed.

I have a separate origin games folder on my D drive, after I re-installed windows I was able to select that folder to be the current game library. The I just attempted to download every game I had on the dive and origin auto detected the existing game folders. I didn't need to download anything.

 

I think it could work.

Case Bitfenix Ghost, Mobo Asus Maximus VIII Ranger, CPU i7 6700K @4.2 Ghz cooled by Arctic cooling Freezer i30, (barely). GPU Nvidia GTX 970 Gigabyte G1 @1519Mhz core, RAM 16Gb Crucial Ballistix CL16 @2400Mhz. SSD 128GB Sandisk Ultra Plus as my OS drive. HDD's  1TB  Seagate ST31000524AS its OEM, 3TB Seagate Barracuda, 2x 500GB WDC Blue (RAID 0)

If it isn't working absolutely perfectly, according to all your assumptions, it is broken.
