What does Steam Link do? The Steam Link app brings desktop gaming to your iPhone or iPad. Controller doesn't work in the app despite it saying it's connected. People expecting the app to do something it wasn't meant to.

Can be used to benchmark a system from a different location. Very slight lag, but it isn't noticeable when using the mouse to aim and look around. Steam is the best thing to happen to non-console, non-mobile gaming in a couple of decades.- Does a great job of streaming Steam games from a gaming PC to a Mac.

If the resolution of the host display is set in-game to the same as the client, that's that much less work the client has to do. It sounds like as much of the work, including graphical work, as possible should be done on the host. Remember, the client can be a low-performance device, so long as it can sufficiently play the stream, as it doesn't handle rendering the game's graphics. While it would be feasible to do this on a headless server with a beefy processor and minimal graphical power, you're almost certainly going to get better results if a decent enough GPU is used on the host. Ideally, the hosting machine would need to be powerful enough to play the game and to encode the stream simultaneously. Does the hosting machine need powerful graphics or would a headless Xeon PC server work well? I ask as I am looking at getting one anyway to host opensim and that only being a database doesn't require much in the way of a GPU the graphics being handled by the client viewer.
