PC gaming is not here to stay. One day, someone, will finally do a cloud /saas streaming solution which works, which solves the latency and fidelity issues and which will be accepted and trusted by the masses.
Hopefully that will be a Valve solution. Not Nvidia, MS, Google or Sony.
From that moment on the client will not matter anymore and you will just stream it to your device and from there cast it to your big screen.
Hopefully I'm full of shit and this will never happen. But I'm afraid I'm not.
Unless you change physics the latency will never be solved.
Simply build a gaming server farm in the middle of every small town in the world
Do like Netflix and start putting hardware in every datacenter and at backbone split point you possibly can.
