Hardware and Software Requirements:

After discussion and evaluation, we choose Cisco ISR4331 router and Huawei AR6000 router as our network routers because of its good performance, affordable price, and long service supporting time. Next, we choose Huawei S6730-H24X6C as our multi-layer switches which has 30 Ethernet ports and large 4000 VLAN supported. For access layer of network, we choose Cisco Catalyst C9200-48T-E by reason of  48 Ethernet ports supported that could provide sufficient internet connection for our target 40 gaming pc. For the gaming desktop PC, we did the online research and find the common hardware equipment for cyber cafe like i7 processor , RTX4060ti, 27 inch monitor size. For wireless connection of Fantastic gaming cafe, we choose TP-Link TL-WA1201 wireless AP to allow guest to connect to wireless network. Lastly, we choose the HP laser MSP 135a printer in view of better resolution than inkjet printer.
