DNS will not affect routing to gaming services unless those games use hostnames instead of ip addresses and even if they do using the ones mentioned above will route to local DNS servers so it won't change your location.
I have my set to fixed DNS inside the router so all my traffic are using them. I use 9.9.9.9 as main and google 8.8.8.8 as secondary. Latency for me in Centurion to those servers in JHB is about 3ms which is very low. Browsing is very snappy too.
Thanks so much for the info. Just out of curiosity. Any reason why you prefer 9.9.9.9 over cloudflare 1.1.1.1?
BTW, I changed mine in the router to use 1.1.1.1 as primary and 8.8.8.8 as secondary and my gosh it loads pages super quick. no lag at all.
