I did briefly look at running an AWS GPU instance out of curiosity but the cards in those would give you ~70% of a 960 performance as far as I can tell. Would otherwise be feasible, though... I have about 15-20ms ping to nearest AWS endpoint, would cost about .90c/hour to run, could set up something with Steam in-home streaming I'd expect. Honestly for single-player stuff at least I imagine that'd work out for most people with < about 35ms ping.If I'm going with steam home streaming, though, would probably just want to stick something on a rack in my closet to get noiseless + more performance. Wonder if you can fit a dual-slot PCI card in a 1u... (with a riser cable obvs)Edit: yup, looks like you can definitely fit a dual-slot card in 1U, there's a variety of systems available for that, even. If you want to use same machine as a VM host too could also just do VT-d passthrough for basically full performance... hmmm.
