How well does NVidia Streaming work?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but here goes!

I'm currently running 2 PC's (lounge & man cave) and I've just ordered a new GTX 1070 and 1440p monitor for the man cave and the current 970 will replace the 280x in the lounge PC which is connected to a 50" 1080p TV. I mostly use the lounge PC for gaming and watching Kodi etc.

Do I still need the lounge PC or would it be possible to stream the man cave PC to the Lounge TV using something like a Shield TV or Steam box and could I use it for browsing and media playback as well as games. How would running at 1440p on man cave PC be handled when streaming to a 1080p TV and would a wired network be good enough for smooth 1080p 60fps streaming?

A couple of years ago I tried the whole 10m HDMI lead to TV but it was more trouble than it was worth and gave up with it mostly because of HDMI conflicts and sparkles

So is streaming good enough to lose my second PC?

Thanks, I can afford to keep both systems I was really looking at wether I needed to keep both at this stage or if I could recoupe some money and cut down on gadge!!! But it would have to week seamlessly like having a PC connected to the TV but I could put up with the odd glitch as long as they were few and far between

Thanks for the info. tommy

Just bought a Shield TV off mm so going to see how that goes, I do already have one of the original (fire risk) Shield Tablets so I know my way around!
