I have a VMware ESXi box at home that I use to run a Windows VM with a video card passed through. I've been using it to stream Heroes of the Storm with Steam's In-Home Streaming and I get a consistent 30 FPS (1920x1080) with no noticeable lag.
Admittedly, it's not exactly the same as the setup in this article since it's not streaming over the internet, but I would assume that as long as your latency is low and bandwidth is high, you'll have no problem with this setup.
- WA 11y agoI'm just wondering. Theoretically, you have an additional hop. Game server <--> Amazon <--> Home From a pure latency point of view, this is probably not an issue. However, whatever events you see on screen, the game server sees you reacting slower, because your keyboard basically has a delay of 20-30ms (Home --> Amazon). Maybe, it depends a bit on the game you play, if this has any negative consequences or not. Edit: This could be somewhat compensated by the faster connection of Amazon <--> Game server (just assuming that it's faster than a connection from home).
