If I start preloading tonight will it be composed of all the 5 phases together or will I have to preload it phase by phase?

how can you tell how fast its going??
 
well 2 ways really, i got a download meter for one, and the 2nd...sure way, Right click on your steam icon in your tray, click "monitor"

shows you how many Kilo BITS its using....divide that number by 8 to get how many KB/s ur getin
 
Thanks alot the both of you

Im only goin 137.8 :( I guess I'm spoiled but who cares... it's satying on overnight :borg:
 
i have a question about preloading too, i am currently working and building a comp right now and it wont have a internet in a while. so if i preload on the comp i am currently using and later when i get my comp im building up and runnin with the internt and acces my steam account from there will i have the preloads or do i have to d/l the preloads from the new comp im building??

You wouldnt have the preloads unless you use the same harddrive that you are using with your current computer. The answer is you will have to download them again.
 
You download it all at one time, you dont have to go through each phase.
