Best Answer: It all depends on your internet speed, router, and firewall settings. If your firewall is restricting Steam in any way, it will take longer to download.

How to change the download region of your Steam Client so that you can download your games and DLC's much faster so you can play your games quicker.
So what Is Steam?
Steam basically is a program which allows users of it to buy and activate games as well as launch them. Steam also helps keep your games patched with the most recent updates so that you have the most stable and recent version of your game. Steam is made by Valve, who in turn are the makers of the hit games Team Fortress 2, Counterstrike, Portal and Dota2.
When you buy a game off of Steam, it will allow you to download this game from the internet. The issue with this however is that generally it is very slow and using this guide you may be able to increase the speed of your downloads.

Step 1) Access Your Settings
This step is relatively simple to do. All that's needed to be done is to access the menu that is labelled Steam and than click the button that says Settings.
Step 2) Access the Downloads Tab
Access the Downloads tab by clicking on it, if you are unsure which tab it is (due to foreign language setup perhaps), it shall be the 5th Tab. From there you should see two main sections, one labelled Content Downloads, the other Internet Connection
Step 3) Change your country settings
This can be done via clicking the drop down list under Download Regions. From there you shall be greeted with a big list of regions where your download server shall be. You should choose the one closest to you, which in my case is Vietnam, so therefore I shall pick Vietnam.
From here you may also pick your maximum download speed, which assuming you want the fastest possible connection should be No Limit

PC gaming and console gaming has one major difference: while a game made for a specific console will run the same on every such console, a PC game does not work the same on every PC. This is due to a number of factors: your computer's hardware, the software you are running on your computer or the settings in the game itself. When one of these factors is affecting your PC game negatively, it causes it to run choppy and sluggishly, ruining your enjoyment of the game. There are a variety of techniques you can use to make your PC games run faster and smoother.
Upgrade your hardware. The three most important PC components to run a PC game are your CPU, video card and RAM. Upgrading any of these three components will result in smoother and faster gameplay.
Upgrade your video card drivers. Often, video card manufacturers release updates, called drivers, that improve the functionality of your card. Many times, these drivers target specific games in an attempt to increase your frames-per-second, or FPS, resulting in faster or smoother gameplay. Video card drivers are available for free on the manufacturer's website.
Lower the in-game graphics options. Many PC games have a number of graphics settings that you can lower or disable to increase performance. Turning off graphics settings such as shadows or anti-aliasing could increase the fluidity and speed of your game.
Close all other applications before playing a PC game. In general, a PC game needs as much of your computer's resources as it can get; running programs in the background, such as a Web browser or word processing software, will not allow the game to access your computer's full resources. This results in choppy or slow gameplay.

Clean out your computer case. Dust build-up can cause fans and cooling devices to not work properly, resulting in your hardware running at decreased speed.
Run an anti-virus or anti-malware scan. Viruses and malware can both have a detrimental effect on your hardware, causing it to run at decreased speeds.
Plug your PC into a wired Internet connection. If you are experiencing choppy gameplay in an online game while using a Wi-Fi connection, the cause is that your PC is not establishing a strong wireless connection to the router. Plugging the PC into the router directly will give you a large boost in the speed and fluidity of your online games.
Tips
How To Increase Download Speed On Steam
Verify that your computer meets the minimum requirements for a PC game, often listed on the game's website, before purchasing. Not meeting the minimum requirements usually guarantees that your game will run sluggishly.
