Weird question probably but here goes :
I'm discovering the joy of having a Dock, it's great!
But what's even better is I can just get my PC to stream more powerful games to my Deck (that the Deck would otherwise struggle with)
It works flawlessly (zero input delay, or rather not noticeable), better than Steam Link / Remote Play (I get input delay on this), and I haven't tried Moonlight
It's also so much more convenient than moving my PC to the living room (where the TV is) and plugging it there!
So I'm like wow Order of the Sinking Star is awesome, but what if I played games that my Deck sometimes has trouble with? Like I could run Witcher 3 Remastered with some better settings!
So I guess I'm not asking for great Steam Deck games, it's more like, what are games that my PC could run that feel great on controller, that I would stream to my Docked Deck?
Thanks!!
But if OP was fine with wifi streaming not going to get HDMI 2.2 quality anyways, and it’s hard finding hardware for it on pcs still.
It comes down to what trade offs OP is willing to make, and for many would be a viable option.
Wifi streaming uses efficient compression to shove video and audio over ethernet, and easily achieve 4k @60hz, at the cost of lower bitrates. But For 4k @60 you need atleast hdmi 2.0, which is common in any gpu made in the pass 10 years.
If op is fine with 1080p @ 60, then hdmi 1.4 is enough. Also, they make hdmi over optical, so would you chose using cat cable?
Even HDMI 2.1 is nearly 5 times the throughput of cat 6.
