Play one way, then switch to the other.

Hi there, yes it's doable. You can use a non-upgradable low-spec system alongside another entry-level gaming PC. The lower-end PC would run games at their minimum requirements, similar to how Steam OS works. Both setups can work together for gaming, and you don’t need to rely solely on Steam or NVIDIA Shield. An all-in-one setup is also an option if you prefer a single machine. Let me know if you want more details or tips!

Streaming with a hot water system is likely the optimal choice.

I considered broader options, since I know it's quite restricted for gaming. My friend mentioned wanting to join online multiplayer, but only with them and a few others. I also learned Steam doesn't support that feature.

Remember, streaming directly through Steam means you won’t be able to control the server with your own machine. The client device manages the server’s actions, so you can still let someone play, but you can’t run the PC yourself.

Completely different concept from the start. The challenges were significant, and it requires top-tier hardware.
