Hi guys! First post here on LTT. Big fan. 

I need help figuring out what tech i need to make hdmi and usb over ethernet. It has to be low latency. I want to put my gaming pc in my server room so that I can access it in my office and living room.

That budget isn't even enough to pay for cables. Be prepared to spend several thousand dollars if you want reasonable quality over HDMI, DP, or others... and you can forget about fps, as that costs even more to develop, and would take way too much bandwidth to function on any network. (which is why most converters have their own extension ports for optcial cables)

 

If you're looking for a gaming server of sorts, the disappointing fact is that it has been tried and FAILED for years. The only available software has limited capabilities, some platforms can be expensive, and NOTHING to date provides the performance of anything higher than a legacy AGP video card.

Look here to see what one enthusiast tried:

Using SteamLink with a raspberry pi is a cheap way to play games remotely. A more expensive but with lower latency would be to use a Nvidia shield. For non-gaming you can use something like Parsec to use your PC remotely.
