> I regularly stream at 4k 120hz from my gaming PC to my laptop and it's basically indistinguishable from running locally

Sunshine+Moonshine is great but lets not exaggerate. On controller it feels fine, on mouse it is still a noticeable difference from local play. I'd compare it to turning on classic v-sync (so not fast sync).

I'm not exaggerating at all. I regularly play Overwatch over this setup and it's totally fine.

It can be unnoticeable for you, while being noticeable for others.

Tested this out again with Overwatch - latency is single-digit milliseconds even at 4k120. I can feel a _slight_ bit of lag at those settings, anything below that is as good as local.
