There are multiple factors that will determine whether you will be able to use all of your available bandwidth on a single device:
No other devices are using bandwidth You have a reliable connection to your router, either wired or wireless Your ISP guarantees transfer speeds of 500Mb/s down, 70Mb/s up in your contract ISPs like Comcast, Charter, AT&T often will not guarantee their speeds during peak hours If using Ethernet: All cables are CAT5e or above The Ethernet port on your router/switch supports 10/100/1000

Theoretically, you can do 500/70, but that likely won’t happen. 
 
Typically with cable from my experience, once you saturate your upload, your download starts to be negatively affected. I’m actually not entirely sure why this is though… 

Thanks for the suggestion but I've got it working now. ✌️

What did you use to remove the app? Did you just delete it?
 
I always had great success with this one when I still ran OSX.

Have you tried playing on a system with a known working high refresh rate monitor to see if you can feel a difference? You may just not be as sensitive to high refresh rates.

yeah, i figured there was a reason you were looking at the bose 700s, just wanted to make sure you knew there were other options with different pros and cons

Apparently the Bose 700s have improved latency, but idk how good it is. One thing to keep in mind though is that there is a audio cable that is included with them (terminating in a 1/8in connector), which I would think would make latency a non-issue. P.S., apparently the mic in the Bose 700s isn't bad, but I'd still think a separate mic would be better, although it seems like you could probably get by for a little bit without a seperate mic.

you mentioned that the bose 700s are a purchase for music mostly, if that isn't on the go and utilizing the ANC, you'd be much better off getting a different headphone solution for $400. For example, the HD6XXs and the Schiit Audio Magni would sound significantly better and would have more of an upgrade path, at the expense of portability, as the headphones are open-back.
