Gamine server

[Desbreko]

I was giving a server and I want to be setup so I can play my game through from my entire house. The game would be throug steam mostly but I want to be able to play my pic games fro. The server to play downstairs in my living room throug the hard line home network. How do I this and is it even possible?

What server do you have?

 

If you want to play games every where get a thin client and use that on the receiving end.

Not totally sure what the specs are other the it's come with two Zion cpus a 2.6 Gtz each and each has 16 threads.

Do you want to play games on it or make the host a see for a game. You need a gpu to play games. Also fix you spelling.

Does it boot with the gpu?

 

Try using team viewer and steam in home streaming

I want to play games to be able to play my games from an supported device like a tv that on the same network. All my devices are hardline Ethernet connection.

It's not built yet because waiting for the power supply and ssd to come in the mail.

As far as i know you can't stream directly to a TV. 
You will need a so called thin client (a laptop will do.) that you install Steam on and than use its in-home streaming function. This is the best solution for streaming games right now. TeamViewer or even Microsoft's Remote Desktop do not work very well for games as there is too much latency and the frames are usually below 30. But for watching movies they might be good enough.

If I understood you correctly you have two 16 thread xeons that run at 2,6 GHz and paird with a 980 ti this should be more than enough power for streaming needs. 

For streaming pirated games or games from other publishers that are not one steam: Click on add a non-steam game and then stream it. For games like GTA 5 that have a login window you will need do something else. I usually add Notepad or Wordpad to Steam as a non-steam game, launch it on the client, press ctrl+space+n to minimize it and that allowes you to stream the whole desktop. Now just launch any game you like.

If there are more people that want to play on this server, but you want to use it for work at the same time, just use VMware's vsphere hypervisor or something like Unraid to create multiple virtual machines (VMs).(Each VM need it's own GPU, but it doesn't need to be as good as the one you will be playing games on) They are both easy enough to set up for total noobs like me, but they do have some drawbacks. 
VMware is free, but the free version only allows 8 virtual cpu cores per VM. If you ask me VMware is better, but i was unable to set it up properly so I tried to do the same thing with Unraid and I got it working. Unraid has a free trial, but after 44 days you have to purchuse it.
