Question about Valve Steam Link

My PC is currently broken, but I also have Steam on iOS and Android. Is it possible to use the "Steam Link" to stream to the TV and, most importantly, to play if I have an account?

No. The Steam Link can only be used as a client, i.e. a receiver of the game that is connected to the TV. Only Windows 7 or newer, Mac OS or Linux work as a server; iOS or Android do not work.

Sorry it has an action with remote control at the moment ^^

nVidia SHIELD TV 16GB + Remote (DE, EN, FR, IT)

by the way it is described here even better is like an Xbox only cheaper, I use it to stream movies and series from my 4 NAS servers also in 4K resolution ^^ is full genial the box and it also has Plex server if you don't have a NAS ^^ connect an external hard drive is also enough ^^

LOL umm... Yeah, sure, why do we all buy such expensive graphics cards....

SteamLink is only for streaming ^^

What could solve your problem though is Nvidia ShieldTV

nVidia SHIELD TV 16GB (DE, EN, FR, IT)

The difference Nvidia renders the games on their servers and for 9.99 a month you can stream and gamble ^^
