Virtualization

What software is suitable for organizing entertainment virtualization at home?

Hello!
The goal is to provide the laptop with a part of the computing resources of a stationary computer for simple games.
Connection type - via local network via wi-fi router at 5GHz.
Stationary - i5-2500, 16 RAM, 4TB SHDD+ 128GB SSD, NV GTX970.
As I imagine it, the stationary will act as a hypervisor, on which one virtual machine will be deployed. A laptop will connect to this virtual machine over the network using client software.
At the same time, resources, ideally, should be divided almost equally, or the advantage should remain with the stationary.
I would be grateful if you could help me choose/find the right software.
UDP 1: Note to the presentation - another mandatory criterion is the ability to simultaneously work both on a desktop and on a laptop.

For simple games, you can install paravirtualized drivers.
For example, kvm for Windows has qxldod, they are good at spinning old classic toys. They also provide a built-in SPICE protocol host that can be used to connect over the network. It is enough to cut down a lot of different compressions and compressions of frames from spice, as even animations begin to show smoothly. Although, I'm talking from my 4k belfry. You on full-hd will be smooth and with compression, most likely.
Spice also has such a thing as vdagent. It creates a virtual serial port through which all sorts of events are forwarded, such as a mouse, screen modes, clipboards, etc. Everything works fine and smoothly with it, the mouse does not fall off when not needed, and other goodies.

Virtualization is not suitable for gaming. From the word at all. To study it - maybe, but not for games for sure. Any game requires a video card - and the video card is emulated for the most part the most simple (unless, of course, we take NV cards specially sharpened for the separation of graphic resources, but there is a price ...). Most of the games will not even get up without realizing what the hell it is :)
Although ... You still only have VirtualBox, but I haven't watched it for a long time - maybe there is something in it. And then - hyper, at least some - it will not provide resources to the laptop, but will create another machine, and the laptop will cling to it via the remote access protocol, and most of them transfer graphics very slowly, if there is RDP, then video then you can't really see it :)
