    Hi all,
    I was playing CS:GO yesterday and it used 5gb of data while I was only playing for an hour. Can anyone tell me am I doing something wrong? Thanks

    No way CSGO used that, at higher ticks it would be about 250MB at most.

    Game updates, streaming to twitch etc could easily though.

    Moved from Fighting Games, couldn't find a CS:GO forum or a shooters forum? May just be blind, feel free to punt it on elsewhere

    Possibly Steam updating another game in the background.
