Playing in the basement Downstairs gaming session Fun on the floor
I can utilize the power of your desktop in the second floor to stream games on your large TV downstairs. Both devices are connected via wired LAN, and I anticipate using that connection for both directions. I’m confident others have achieved this, all I truly require is a mouse and keyboard to send signals from my living room to the upstairs space, as well as video and audio transmission from the upstairs to my living room.
There are options that deliver KVM over LAN, though they tend to be costly. The Steam link, as suggested by @jaslion, is suitable for playing games on Steam. You can add almost any title to Steam, although support might vary. For a more affordable approach with extra effort, consider using a high-quality active USB-3.2 cable together with existing Ethernet, and place a hub near the TV to enable KVM over USB. The setup could require some configuration to route your GPU through USB instead of its own ports, though an HDMI connection remains a viable alternative if needed.
