    Ok so here’s the thing, maybe some one can point me in the
    right direction, my Pc sits in the Study, is about 10 meters away from the
    lounge.I want to keep it as my Windows Gamestation in the study, but want it to
    be a steam pc for the lounge as well, the problems, as you might guess
    are the following

    Cables! – If I get a controller, what options do I have regarding wireless
    controllers ? or the steam controller for that matter, also will I need a 10
    meter hdmi cable or is there streaming options on smart tvs over wifi to a
    steam OS ?

    OS booting, can I simply get a dual boot system going or some
    kind of virtual machine running steam? How would this work? Would I
    have to restart my pc everytime I want to go play games on steam in the living
    room ?

    If anyone has answers it would be appreciated!
