Question about wireless HDMI

[Tairaa]

My computers fans are high performance but louder than my girlfriend and I would like, so I was thinking of solutions to our little conundrum and it occured to me that perhaps I can send an HDMI signal wirelessly. This would enable me to have the computer run in the spare bedroom while the peripherals connect wirelessly out in the living room. Turns out the technology does exist, but I'm wondering about latency. I can't have input/output latency when I'm gaming, or at least not appreciable latency. So I'm wondering if anybody here has any experience with sending HDMI signals wirelessly, how does it stack up? Thanks in advance!

it would be easer and cheaper for you to put in a 30.00 fan controller and turn the fan speed down on your case fans.

My fans are all 3 pin, will a fan controller be able to regulate rpm by controlling current or would they need to be 4 pin PWM fans?

the 3 pin units do it by current. if you dont want the unit they do sell fan cable kits with resistors to cut the fan speeds down.

It depends how much you care about the quality. The guys on the video forums would likely be laughing. There are issues getting very high refresh rates at high resolutions even with a HDMI cable and there is a migration to the display port cables.

Then you have the issue of any wireless. This needs to use wireless bandwidth and since there is only certain un licensed frequencies it can legally run on. It will be in direct competition with wireless network devices that you have and all your neighbors have. Most these systems do not use 802.11 based wireless so they can't detect or be detected by your more standard wireless devices. That just means they blindly interfere with each other. This type of use unlike your PC wireless does not have the ability to retransmit data to try to compensate for the interference.

If you asked can I surf the web that likely will be ok but gaming...unless you are a gamer that does not care about screen resolution I would not try it.
