It also captures the keyboard and mouse movements from your Mac and transfers it to the PC with very little latency.Īs long as your network is fast it is by far the best remote gaming experience I have ever tried. What this means is that the game will use the power you have in the PC and stream the video to your Mac.
This basically means that you can use a powerful PC to run demanding games and stream those games over your home network to the steam client installed on your Mac or Linux based client. Valve who creates and manage the Steam client have released something they call Steam In-Home Streaming. I am not talking about connecting an external graphics card to your Mac via thunderbolt, via some kind of box that costs $1000.Forget MS Remote Desktop or Splashtop software.I am not talking about using Wine, Wineskin or Crossover.I am not suggesting you install Parallels or VMware fusion to virtualize Windows.I am not talking about rebooting your Mac into Windows by using bootcamp.You don’t even need a dedicated GPU on your Mac because you are going to use other hardware to push all those demanding pixels to your Mac.
Now we have a good way to play almost any Windows game on your Mac.
