Having a decent GPU in your PC doesn't guarantee smooth performance on a low-end laptop. It depends on how well the hardware matches the game's requirements.

If you're referring to streaming, that's okay. Just make sure your laptop satisfies the basic streaming standards, which are relatively simple.

Yes, ensuring a consistent internet connection on both devices is essential.

You could use Steam for in-home streaming, though it needs both the laptop and desktop connected to the same network.

In theory it is possible, but in real life it will probably cause significant delays and might freeze constantly if the internet connection is weak.

I believe I have solid internet via Ethernet (800Mbps download, 500Mbps upload), but Wi-Fi tends to be unstable (50Mbps download, 20Mbps upload) – especially with a bad Apple router. @will121162 Prefer using Ethernet instead. Also, why not just connect the desktop directly?

If you're at school with your laptop, you might be able to play Fall Out World depending on the school's rules and policies.

You can share a remote connection online, but there are serious concerns. 1) security risks increase, 2) the delay between sending and receiving input plus video will be around 10 seconds with high latency. It’s manageable on the same local network, but even across just two hops it would be very slow and frustrating.

Technically, yes. However, as Sauron said, whether it works relies on the internet. My most recent attempt to connect remotely failed because of the school's Wi-Fi connection issues.

Image clarity is often reduced through compression, making details appear significantly poorer than in person. Your school's wireless connection will be restricted to the available bandwidth. During my time in the IT department, we implemented QoS and firewall rules to prevent this and other issues, resulting in noticeable input delays. Streaming games locally is recommended because it demands more bandwidth for smooth performance. Try playing Fallout 1 on your old laptop at school. Alternatively, you might want to explore programming to find a solution to these problems! ;D
