Steam Link. Or connect your PC to your TV through the video outs.

You can run anything as long as you add it to your Steam.

Most games you should be running at around 40-60 fps in 4k and u just need to connect your PC with your TV via HDMI cabel

HDMI or DisplayPort connection is definitely a better solution.

I use steam link (laptop plugged in to TV, streaming from my room with a 1070). Works well with upscaled 1080 to 4k.

I have like 80mb down and 20mb up so i think im fine on the wifi front.

I think i will go with a hdmi connection

The size of a "monitor" does not matter. It is only the resolution that affect framerates.

Problem isn't "fast internet". Problem is "good router + good receiver". You need great consistency and low latency when streaming in home, which your setup might not be up to, even with a great internet plan.
