Just a quick question (didnt really know where to put this thread). What would be the absolute cheapest and simplest computer build that would run steam so that I could in-home stream my steam games running on my 780ti rig in my room to my living room TV.

Kind of like a Playstation TV that just came out but for steam games running elsewhere in the house. Or the lowest end steam machine that is going to come out, but that wont be forever so I was looking for a DIY option. Like would Linux work fine so I dont have to pay for windows, etc.

Anyway, thanks.

Hard to get cheaper than that, even atom or celeron boards are more expensive, dont forget to add a wireless adapter in case that you cant use a wired connection.
