That's why I don't see the appeal of in-home streaming. The question is how much reserve do you haven on your computer. The appeal of gamestreaming is couch gaming in front of a big screen tv. That also means you are stuck with 60fps max. If you have the reserve to get fluid 60fps on the tv then it is perfect, however if the game maxes your computer anyway, you might get a slight drop in fps (with hardware encoding turned on way less depending on the load on your graphics card) For me it is perfect. I love to sit on the couch and yet to be able to play the PC games in front of a 65 inch tv. The only missing piece is the Steam controller for games which do not allow controller input.
