Would be cool to see some videos playing with 10g fiber.

This expansion card is surprisingly cheap, wonder what the latency would be like gaming over it to a remote rig. https://www.amazon.com/10Gtek-E10G42BTDA-Ethernet-Converged-X520-DA2/dp/B01DCZCA3O/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1532225828&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=10g+network+card&psc=1

used 10 and 40gb nics on ebay go for less. and there is a few cheap rj45 10gb single nic cards for under 100$

Well, in my experience typical copper network cables will do <1ms locally, so even if you had top tier gaming reaction times I doubt you'd notice a difference. Doesn't mean you can't have some fun with it, since it can totally free you up in regards to range and interference. Although transceivers + fibre optic cable might add a bit of price you weren't expecting.

If you want good hardware recommendations, please tell us how you intend to use the hardware. There's rarely a single correct answer.

doing remote gaming really doesn't need much network speed and the latency isn't that much on gig. Most of the latency comes from encoding and decoding the stream

 

Also you can get mellanox 10gbe nics for about 20 bucks on ebay
