I have a laptop that I typically use for all my tasks, along with a gaming PC. I'm looking for a way to run games on my PC but display them on my laptop's screen. Is there a way to set this up so that my laptop uses the processing power of my PC for gaming? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

You can use Steam's built-in functionality to stream games from your PC to your laptop, as long as both devices are on the same local network. Just install the Steam client on both, ensure the game is installed on your PC, and you should see an option to stream it on your laptop. For some games, setting them to windowed mode on the PC can help with mouse control issues when using Steam Link. Although I’m not sure about non-Steam games, it might be worth exploring!
Definitely give it a try with non-Steam titles too! It can also serve as a remote desktop if needed—though it might be a bit clunky if you try to escape the game window.
