Hey guys. I have a steam link I’ve used for quite some time. But I’m wanting to figure out a solution that is similar but grants full PC control. I have my main PC hardwired and a steam link and monitor out in my garage I’m routing to with a power line adapter that works pretty great. But it has a lot of issues when minimizing steam to use as a full PC. I have a mini pc N100 I planned on using as a router. But would be happy to swap to use for this if possible.

    If you got the GPU for it, parsec for windows and sunshine for Linux. Sunshine is a lot more customisable and quicker, but takes a bit of setup and further tweaking to really optimise it.

    If you don’t have a GPU rustdesk or any old vnc server will do

      Would this be in the client or in the host PC? My host has a 4090. My client has a N100. No Gpu.

        Its most important on the host, but even the integrated GPU on the N100 will have a decoder, what the client needs.

      Curious: what do you mean by “quicker”, more specifically? Like faster to set up, or more performant while using it?

        Lower latency and you’re usually able to get better quality for less bandwidth.

        Its definitely a longer process to setup though
