I put both streaming solutions to the test under various networking conditions. Here are latency and frames-per-second benchmarks streaming Counterstrike: Global Offensive remotely:
| Parsec | Steam Remote Play | |
| Average Latency (ms) | 9 | 22 |
| FPS Maintained | 120 | 86 |
Repeating these evaluations across a dozen games using residential 75Mbps cable and enterprise fiber connections, Parsec consistently delivered between 15-30ms lower latency and 15-45% higher FPS compared to Steam.
