You can do that today on a FireTV if you have an nvidia card on the host machine: http://smile.amazon.com/Cameron-Gutman-Moonlight-Game-Streaming/dp/B00JK4MFN2?sa-no-redirect=1
If you have a 6xx series Nvidia card, I'd recommend giving Limelight a shot: http://www.amazon.com/Cameron-Gutman-Limelight-Game-Streaming/dp/B00JK4MFN2/
Just add Steam to your Nvidia GeForce Experience game list, and you'll be able to stream via Big Picture Mode.
What device are you planning on using to stream? If you have capable hardware, you could get a FireTV Stick, load Moonlight, and use the GeForce Experience to stream your desktop.
You can use an Amazon FireTV Stick to stream games using LimeLight.
I tried doing this by side-loading Chrome remote desktop but apparently FireTV doesn't allow anything that uses a Google account which is kind of shitty.
I'd suggest trying to side-load Splashtop on it, it's my second choice for high quality real-time streaming. I've not tried this but I'd guess it would work well.
I have used Limelight to stream games onto it which works AMAZINGLY well. But, that requires a semi-modern Nvidia GPU in the computer. If you can do this you can probably launch steam in big picture mode and use the browser in it.
Other than that Chromecast allows a quick and easy brodcast from a desktop computer's browser tab or desktop. There may be an app somewhere that emulates a chromecast.
Also, you can side-load Chrome and just use the browser on the TV to access whatever you're looking for. You can do this without rooting your device. If you need help side-loading apps let me know and I'll give some links.
If your PC uses an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 600/700/800/900 they just released Limelight for the FireTV

Wrong.
Moonlight streaming works for Nvidia powered PCs provided your device supports Android/iOS and can decode the video.
Before throwing down a ton of money, it might be worth testing Gamestream on your Fire TV with Moonlight: https://www.amazon.com/Cameron-Gutman-Moonlight-Game-Streaming/dp/B00JK4MFN2
In my experience, using the NVIDIA server works better than the Steam server, regardless of the client using it. Since Moonlight is free, it's certainly worth at least a test.
