You're planning a solid gaming setup in a mid-range case, and you're curious about running Steam on your MacBook Pro alongside a game server. With a dual-boot MBP, it should be possible to host a game server while streaming games—especially if your router supports multiple bands. Just ensure your internet connection is stable enough for both tasks.

Steam on home streaming is okay. My 2008 PC handles it just fine with a few frames lost, and my sister's from last year runs perfectly over Wi-Fi.

You're able to play games via a Steam client, right? I don't understand the reason for the hesitation... You probably need to connect it directly.

It depends on the router you have. If it works well, there should be no issues.
