Not that I know of. It's a problem with your ISP if your computer isn't just slow in general.

Other than changing ISP, no other fix. And dont believe those crap that says PING BOOSTERS and stuff.. Seriously stay away from that junk. 

Microsoft in there infinite wisdom have decided to impose a VRAM cap for games the that use DX9 o.O. May God Bless them those whoever came up with that idea. :dry:

 

You're looking for something that does not, has not, will not, might not or must not exist ... ... but you're always welcome to search for it.

Likely there is not much you can do since it's a result of physical distance and packet pathways controlled by your ISP, but there are a couple things you can try.

1. Go into your router's QoS settings and make your PC's MAC address the highest priority, you can also prioritize by port for each specific game.

2. Do a packet trace to a server near the game server (or the server itself if you can find the IP address) see where the latency is being introduced.

3. Upgrading your modem to a 32x8 channel modem can help your access more channels for your packets to use (especially true during peak hours).

4. If the game supports it you can host your own server for the best possible ping.

Having issues with a Corsair AIO? Possible fix here:

Spoiler

Are you getting weird fan behavior, speed fluctuations, and/or other issues with Link?

Are you running AIDA64, HWinfo, CAM, or HWmonitor? (ASUS suite & other monitoring software often have the same issue.)

Corsair Link has problems with some monitoring software so you may have to change some settings to get them to work smoothly.

-For AIDA64: First make sure you have the newest update installed, then, go to Preferences>Stability and make sure the "Corsair Link sensor support" box is checked and make sure the "Asetek LC sensor support" box is UNchecked.

-For HWinfo: manually disable all monitoring of the AIO sensors/components.

-For others: Disable any monitoring of Corsair AIO sensors.

That should fix the fan issue for some Corsair AIOs (H80i GT/v2, H110i GTX/H115i, H100i GTX and others made by Asetek). The problem is bad coding in Link that fights for AIO control with other programs. You can test if this worked by setting the fan speed in Link to 100%, if it doesn't fluctuate you are set and can change the curve to whatever. If that doesn't work or you're still having other issues then you probably still have a monitoring software interfering with the AIO/Link communications, find what it is and disable it.
