I have cable Internet connection 5m speed with Internet provider I have. I can get up to 15m . So my question is, if I get the faster one will my ping in computer games be better . And on a side note, how fast of a download speed will I get. Now I am getting about 575k/s. But my biggest question is will my online gaming be better.

Usually upgrading speed wont give better pings.

Download speed will be determined from who you are downloading. If they have a slow connection, so will you. If they have a fast one, more than likely you will also.
Ping times depends on many things and can change from hour to hour depending on overall network traffic on the net and who you are pinging and what kind of connection they have. Gameing doesn't take much bandwidth so upgrading wont do much.
