Your talking about 2 diff. things.
downloading a file you want speed not ping
playing a game, ping is more important. but download speed helps

Any basic broadband connection will give you enough download speed, so what you should really want is a very low ping


ping = latency how fast the packet gets to the server. how quickly can I request that file

download speed is how fast I can more that file once I have made my connection.
