It just so happens that this topic is about gaming lag, in which VM compare poorly to other fibre providers. |
From personal experience, I would agree more with the qualifications Chrys has advised.
In our house, currently, the FPS gamnig experience is better on VM XXL than on BT Infinity 80/20. The lag on my Infinity circuit is twice that of VM - possibly due to the aluminium run to the FTTC box. Whatever is causing the poor SNR margin - nothing we do improves that.
Is there a trick to try?

Is that PC CPU usage? And is it down to other process running at the same time?
Queuing theory tells me that there is a long service queue which may well show up as latency. But that's theory not knowing what's actually happening on your CPU or indeed what that CPU is.
