If you have cable chances are you are also not getting 977 constantly, it dips lower and higher. Pretty much, your download speed is wayyyyy too low. Using that connection, neglecting if it dips higher/lower, 33 Tickrate you can get 24 slots and for 66 tickrate about 10ish slots. Dont worry about FPS your server hardware can handle 512. I got pretty much the same machine, but with better bandwidth and i get 60 100 tic slots at 512.
P.S. You got your upload and download speeds messed up. Usually Download is higher, upload lower. Probably 977 is your upload. You could be right though but that would be really wierd.
I am playing the game at my friends house, the server is located at mine.
I have a 100 mbps cable internet connection, also my upload is 977 kp/s, I think you just read my specs wrong, anyway I will change my server to 66 tic and 10 slots and see how that works,
Thanks
