Funnily enough I'm waiting for my hdmi to usb capture card to arrive so I can play on my PS3 while also having the option of switching back to the desktop instantly.

That has to add a lot of latency.

Although honestly I think some of the latency complaints by gamers are a little much. Personally I have a Bluetooth mouse/keyboard connected to my desktop with a super duper cheap projector pointed into the living room and can play FPS games on it just fine.

It has a lot of latency indeed. I tried the raspberry as a Steam Link alternative, but as far as I know the ethernet port is not suitable (?). I've also read that it actually gets worse if you plug in any USB peripherals. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

>>ctas+Q1
Yes the Ethernet port is on USB so you’re sharing (the already small) bandwidth between that and all the peripherals.

This may have changed with the pi4 though.

It probably won't work. Though I think it could still be a fun project. Maybe I'll use it in the same way the author does in the end.
