It rather depends if the upstream switch allows more than one MAC address on that port.
 
But its true, there is no such thing as a "gaming" switch.  All switches should perform equally as unless the upstream supported QoS tagging, there is nothing you can do to change how the traffic moves - its just simply pushing it from one port to another.

That would work

It can't work for GAMERS because it has no RGB /s

like... that's just a plain tplink switch, but it would work, yeah

Not sure if it will handle a gaming load without RGB.

I agree with Mr. Banana Hammock @Bananasplit_00 there: that's a perfectly fine switch and will cover your needs without a hitch.

in a sense, any change made on one side, would instantly transmit to any other location, given both sides are connected and have onedrive enabled.
 
also, copy this for dropbox, google drive, or any other similarly implemented file sharing service.

As long as your internet is fast enough you can run a single player no problem, a few mpbs should be plenty.
 
And if you do this and need any help port forwarding let me know.

Re-read my previous post, I added links to tapes that would be compatible with that Sony if you need to buy some.

yeah that boombox that he showed, that's one of the things I used before I moved to a whole system

Great, Thank you so much!

It's gone from twitch as well. Was watching it, refreshed page because the chat wasn't working and the video is gone.

The link i used to watch it was: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/381306498
 

Although that now seems to not work either. 

damn. thanks anyways

That makes sense to me

If that budget is within what he is looking to spend, I would swap the 8700 out for a 9900k, and go down to 16 GB of RAM. There are no games that need more than 16 GB. That said, the 8700 is fine.... Maybe taking the money saved on the RAM and getting a RTX 2080 would be a better option as the 8700 will suffice, its quite a good CPU. You could always get the 8700k and overclock it, I have one running at 5 GHz on all cores; it was very simple to OC, easier than my 6700k in my sig was actually.... Although both were pretty simple.
 
But, seeing as its for someone else, sometimes overclocking can be less desirable; its just more to go wrong. You can save a few bucks on the motherboard and the CPU cooler, and get 16 GB of RAM, and take that savings and get a RTX 2080, I think that would be your best bet and most value added option.
 
A good heatsink to get is a Hyper 212 Evo. Its an older design, it isn't phenomenal (it used to be the bargain cooler of the century), but its cooling my 8700k @ 5ghz at sub 75c under full synthetic load, and its only 25 bucks..... Also, 3000 MHz RAM is fine, if you can save a few bucks there that is a great option.
 
The 8700k is 60 bucks more, so unless you plan to overclock I am not sure that is worthwhile... But, it could be a great option down the line if the CPU starts to be a little slow for AAA titles 4 years down the line...

I ended up going with this case.

It probably doesn't have the world's best airflow, but it looks pretty cool. I actually ended up buying all the parts i needed yesterday; thanks for the recommendation though!

I'd get the system setup first, then figure out what to replace with. You might want some right angle cables, but you need to make sure everything aligns first. And you know exactly what you need.

I gotcha, thanks for the explanation!!!

Gotcha. I think the 8400 will end up lasting long enough to me. By the time I feel the need to upgrade the graphics card, I'll probably need to upgrade a lot more stuff in there anyways. Thanks!
