> 4. A long USB C cable (or the official one)?

Airlink works surprisingly well and it's so much nicer to play wirelessly. You might need to connect a wireless (AC or better) access point to your computer if your existing wifi AP is in a different room, though.

I tried Air Link but even with all-wifi-6 hardware and the router sitting 20ft away, the video quality was garbage. I didn’t try to tweak settings too much though, maybe there’s some magic trick.

Thanks for the tip. I'll try it out whilst waiting for the cable.

My computer already has a wired connection to the wifi router (which is a recent AX model), so hopefully it will work well.
