My current internet speed is 5up/down.I am planning to upgrade my internet speed but i don't know which one is better.Please Help

I usually play online games like CSGO or Dota but a few of my family members are always watching youtube or streaming videos and it will cause my ping to go from 5 ping to 300 ping sometimes even 800.

Which plan do you guys think is most suitable for me.Thanks :)

5up 30down for RM210
20up 20down for RM265
10up 10down for RM210

(RM is the currency for my country)
 
Solution
while 20/20 is more balanced for things like streaming and hosting servers and family usage.
but most people would get more benefit from the 5 up 30 down as you will tend to download more than you upload.

My suggestion is to buy a router that allows you to set priorities for gaming.
Priorities are a very reasonable thing to do where a short request needing a short ping can be first in line and not impact high volume streaming.
For streaming and downloads, prioritize the download capabilities.
