By the way I did the test on Buffer Bloat on that website about my network (ISP), so I got 378ms with literally running nothing on idle, I guess it is network related then If i'm right?
There's the results of my tests on the Buffer Bloat:
1st run:
http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/66161609 Idle - 378ms, Downloading - 388ms, Uploading - 197ms
2nd run:
http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/66161643 Idle - 50ms, Downloading - 756ms, Uploading - 194ms
3rd run:
http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/66161671 Idle - 334ms, Downloading - 662ms, Uploading - 195ms
I've even had spikes from 700-1000ms during the test while nothing really running in the background.
All the tests were run on nothing running in background nor any device in my house except light web surfing on some smartphone devices from Wireless router. My router model is this Archer C60 V2.0 as I bought it 70$ for the best signal and MU-MIMO technology for simultaneously running on multiple devices without any interfering, i'm running on it's ethernet port btw. I have got also TechniColor Modem from my ISP as well which it has even wireless support. So I have both wireless routers/modems running it's own wifi access points.
Probably network related issue then, as you're not even getting a B in the buffer/bloat category, the guy recommends at least an A.
Try out the tweaks he suggests.
Here's my results:

It's not great either, but I honestly don't care too much because I don't play competitive much, especially stuff like CS:GO. But when I did play CS:GO, I did occasionally have those "wtf" moments where some guy hit me through the wall or some weird position.
If the tweaks he suggests don't do it, maybe there's some interference coming into your router from where-ever it is stationed at, or maybe the LAN cables are getting interference from something, maybe other electronics nearby. If this happens, try to change the position of your cables and router to be away from electrical devices as much as possible to see if that helps; or maybe even add shielding to the wires using ferrite cores.
Oh also, you mentioned audio chips in a later post, if it matters, you can get a dedicated high quality DAC like the focusrite scarlett solo 3rd gen, using a high quality dedicated audio chip from a manufacturer that makes their own drivers should reduce audio latency by about 100ms. Also, when I got it, it gave me a noticeable sound quality upgrade even on my normal earphones compared to my X570 gaming X mobo.
