I would also recommend Parsec but I doubt it fits into your workflow...I just've had good experience with it, even when using accessibility tools.

Purchase a gaming rig, then install sunshine/moonlight or Parsec, to stream everything to you mac as needed

Same, just bought the Parsec a month ago and am loving it so far. Hope it lasts me a long time.
