I have tried Raspberry Pi to stream emulator games, but I had issues with bluetooth controller (latency problems), so I thought about pc game streaming to raspberry pi and bluetooth controller will paired with PC. Its all in close range.

Raspbi is connected to TV.

Thats my last attempt to make it all kinda wireless. If it fails, I will have to connect my PC to TV...

the older pis simply can’t play 1080p high bitrate streams smoothly

Can you be more specific about where the line is? Even approximately would be helpful.

you will have to test it, depends on what you got.

I'd guess anything older than an RPI 4 you're going to struggle with 1080 at 60 fps. Worth a shot though. When the stream box is the bottleneck you can actually render it higher on the PC and steam at the lower resolution and it can look better than you would expect.
