NVIDIA GeForce NOW is FINALLY worth it! You don't even need a PC anymore!

[@AncientGameplays]

Edit: people saying I got paid to make this video even though I stated this wasn't sponsored must have a really limited mind... I was really impressed with GeForce now, it still requires a good internet connection to use at 4K 120FPS, but the latency and overall experienced surprised me!

[@sownlengoc]

is wifi4 enough for smooth gaming?

[@folivorx]

I paid Ultimate membership 1 month ago. Connecting my PC to the internet via ethernet cable (not WiFi) and with a speed of 500mbps (500 megas as they say here in my ranch) I have been able to play several AAA games, with 40ms latency, at constant 4K and 60FPS with all graphics options at maximum (in some cases with RTX effects). My plans to buy an RX 7800 will be tabled until further notice, because I'm in gamer heaven with the RTX 4080 performance that the GeForce Now Ultimate plan gives. 🎮

Ha, you pay more for less performance. Lol. Why should anyone do that? Btw.

Fun fact: my gpu died during covid/scalpers/cryptofarming craze era(2020) which was the time when gpu prices were ridicilous. So best possible time for my (then) gpu to give out. Geforce now was savior at the time.

I am a Founder member for Geforce Now (costs are half of what new subs see) and I will likely never give it up. I have done 2 runs of Cyberpunk at ultra high settings with zero issues and it looked great. Even went on vacation and was playing the game when there was downtime using my Razer Kishi controller without issue.

[@gapast3669]

I was using GeForce Now when i had my overheating RX580... The free version (1h session) was great experience. Responsivnes was fine and waiting times differed a lot... Sometimes it was instant connection, but then when i switched to other game, i was waiting 20+ minutes. It is deffinetly not worth in long term (You can get 1080p 60 fps PC just under 500$). Important to notice: there are not all games on GeForce Now. And you can also sell your old PC to get something to buy new one.

[@AncientGameplays]

It can save you in some situation or if you're without a pc. The 1080P 60fps one gives you priority though

Idk why people keep parroting 'you own nothing'. You LITERALLY need to own the games to play them lol And the resell argument is a bit bunk. Every component in your gaming station depreciates from the minute you open the box to the years you own it. You aren't reselling at msrp. 22 months later your gpu has shaved 30 percent of it's value at minimum unless you get lucky and sell during a crypto mining craze. GFN definitely has it's place if you are economical and not a round the clock gamer.

No it’s a 1,6 or 8 hour session for the free, priority and ultimate tier respectively. You can just start another session if the current session ends

[@Amp_Edition]

@ghesje1 oh I see

[@SlyDinger]

After 8 hour, you just have to reenter the game. Try the free version and you will get it. There is queue on the free version so if you quite, you will have to wait again in the queue, but I dont know if there is any queue on the payed versions. (I have tried this years ago so I might not be up to date)

[@andreewert6576]

This is probably done so they can service/manage the servers. If there is no limit it is pretty hard to get a server empty to patch and reboot for example. You can't live migrate with GPU passthrough afaik. So by posing a limit any given server where you disallow new sessions will be evacuated after 8h at the latest.

​​@@JMO77UKimage it's not as the original and sometimes it can get really bad (pretty often lately for me) Another problem is the performance. GFN offers isn't enough to give steady 120FPS even at 1080p in some games and when you pick 1080p then your screen should be one of smaller size, because you'd see pixely parts.

It takes time for the signal of your mouse click to travel from your machine to Nvidia's server GPU. There will always be latency, based on the distance the signal has to travel. It's just physics. The ideal scenario would be to make that distance as close to 0 as possible. Like when you plug a GPU into your motherboard.

At the end of the day there is no equity in your money spent! Dropped it 6 months ago. 1.5 G internet connecting at 400 mbit. The latency wasn't bad but noticeable and very discernable compression on the 4080 premium tier. Also a bug where the Steam client would hang trying to "install" game to the point where it would not execute at all. Regarding cost, no matter the math, if you drop a boat load of money on the pay tiers for the coming years at the end of it all you will have an even slower computer. If equity isn't an issue then Game Pass Ultimate will give you games and performance on almost any device these days. Although restricted to 1080P, if used through a PC with an AMD card you can use FSR when supported.

[@DesocupadoXtremo]

A tip on framegeneration, never, ever, enable it on cloud gaming, not only your latency will get worse as framegen does, but the artifacts and "blur" will increasenly amplify cause of the compression streaming algo that sends you the feed, a nice option for extra smoothness is Lossless Scaling or AFMF done localy, you will get a much better latency and image quality, playing Gamepass on 1440p 120fps felt basically local

Well the banking thing depends. There are several countries that don't do that for PCs. Also, they lend you the full PC. You have good things and bad things

[@e1ectrino]

@@AncientGameplays yeah but this might give people a wrong idea. It’s fine for a month or two while you wait for your pc/console, but a complete waste of money as a “permanent” replacement.

RE4 RE is on GFN finally! It runs well enough on my pc beat the game twice. But i have been waiting to play it with max everything. and still have it run better than my local. The game is an absolute cinema of a gamey game. its a very pretty game that gives me old arcade vibes.

[@sparquisdesade]

Whenever I bring up using gefore now I get dogged on by people for not being able to play cause of input lag etc, but I do just fine in comp FPS games an can run The Finals at max graphics on a decade old airbook hooked up to a gaming monitor I found in the trash that was "broken" but jus needed water dmg cleaned off. lol. Budget gamer king right here.

The segway got me off-guard 😂😂 well after 3 years we can sell or continue to play with our cards and we have to use high bandwidth internet too.

[@Coffeeenjoyer31]

I can see this being pretty good if your GPU dies or if you dont have a decent GPU, and it is good for progress to be made in this area. The people leaving negative comments aren't really the target audience for this type of thing anyway, which is fine. It seems like a similar thing when people say "why would i get a steam deck if i can just get a gaming laptop" well, theyre totally different products for different use cases lol. I've watched your content probably 2 years now, keep up the amazing work. You're one of the few channels that does in depth testing for AMD specific stuff and I think thats awesome. 👍

Exactly, thanks for watching

[@BladeCrew]

I got a good pc for me that can run any game I want at medium(or higher settings) + 1080p 50-60fps. I have a Asrock B450M Steel Legend, Ryzen 5 5500, 4x8GB(32GB DDR4 3200 MT/s), Super Flower 650w Silver Rated psu, ID Cooling FrostFlow X 280, Zotac RTX 3050 Twin Edge OC 8GB(I got 250 bucks back in 2022), Mushkin Tempest 1TB gen 3 nvme ssd in a Montech Air 100 Lite Micro ATX Case. On 1080p medium preset with DLSS Quality and FSR FG on in Horizon Forbidden West I get 80-90fps avg.

[@diysai]

Questions- Can we combine this with Gamepass or any other subscription? Does it install the games the first time (on the remote PC) or can we start playing right away? How does it work on the TV? Do you need a controller for it or do KB Mouse work fine? What's the connection speed required?

[@AncientGameplays]

Yes, you can gamepass games here too I believe. This needs to have more games though. You can just start playing. The games available are already installed

[@AncientGameplays]

I use KB+ mouse here

[@ineedst]

What is your internet connection speed?

[@AncientGameplays]

It says in the video the amount of internet bandwidth it is using, mine is 1Gbps

[@splasherrrr]

it was a dream for me when i played ac origins on geforce now on intel celeron laptop

[@Xilent1]

This is how I've been playing games I want to play in RT. Next. Black Myth Wukong on Geforce Now. I play Wirelessly on my UW. No issues of latency. Not a great experience in First Person Shooters, but that's to be expected. They had a special, I'm paying only $10 a month, but they also had it $50 for 6 months. Even at full price its not bad having a 4080 for $20 a month. They do need to expand the games. Can't play Sony games or Rockstar games for example. It did make me want to get a 4070tiSUPER though. Might just wait for the 5080 though.

[@AncientGameplays]

True, more games are needed

[@Vaan4756346]

I saw you can run GeForce now on a smartphone? Would be nice to see a phone gaming setup with controller, or keyboard and monitor

[@AncientGameplays]

Works quite decently

[@hvdiv17]

the only thing i dont like about gforce now is buying play time but i dont see my self playing one game for more then 8hrs anyway.

[@splasherrrr]

crazy how in future we wont even buy pc parts cant wait when u could just pay subscription just to try high end gaming experience

[@StormRaid417]

The only issue with this is you have to have really good internet that doesn't have bad latency. Latency is the big issue when it comes to gaming through the cloud.

[@seamon9732]

I keep my GPUs for an average of 7 years since 2009. Not talking about the limit to "session length" or whatever that means either. Considering I spend a maximum of 500$ CAD on a GPU ( It was 300$ for the HD5850 and 400$ for the GTX1060, 500$ for a 6 months used LHR 3070 ). 1344$ CAD for 7 years for 1080p ( I'm on 1440p ). 2688$ CAD for 7 years of "ultimate". Nope, just nope Nvidia, I ain't buying your grossly overpriced service.

[@theofficialpollo]

To be fair most people don't keep their GPU for 7 years, that's a looong time, I kept my 1060gb for almost 5 years due to the pandemic and I felt like that was way too much, It started to struggle to keep up. But I get it. I rather much more have my own GPU even if it's lower end rather than a high end borrowed one. Plus I already have a pretty powerful 7900 GRE so there's no reason whatsoever for me.

[@anonymoususer7985]

If you’re a multi gamer household then that is subscription x gamers in the house, last time I looked there wasn’t a family subscription option Priority was based off a 3080 if I remember right Their prices need to come down before it becomes worth it to a stationary household. It comes into its own if you are a person that is always travelling but then you will need to pay for monthly 5g data dongle because you wouldn’t use a hotels wifi for this It’s a great idea but with Nvidia pricing

[@AncientGameplays]

Great idea for the family option

[@maxkrug2000]

What? I bought a month to try it out. I bought Ultimate 4k 120fps and play with 1440p ultrawide. The experience is shit - it's stuttering like it's 50 fps and there is latency as well AND key presses get lost. It gets better if you turn down the stream quality but the image looks like shit then. I have 250 Mbps internet (on ethernet, no wifi). Ping to GeForceNow server is 20 ms. Already tried all the config hacks, tips and tricks.

If you say I got paid you're one of the dumbest people that ever lived. Watch the conclusion. Just sharing experiences

[@AncientGameplays]

You need to enable variable vsync as shown and you're going ultrawide, that might be the issue there

[@maxkrug2000]

@@AncientGameplays I played with the settings, Vsync is on, VRR is on. To be fair: Today came an update for GeforceNow and I also disabled the setting "Adjust for poor network conditions". I played today and the experience was acceptable. Latency was much better, less stuttering. But still not 120 fps, feels like 50-60 fps on local hardware. You think Ultrawide is the issue here? I think now GeforceNow is a good option to bridge the time if you are waiting for new generations of CPU/GPU to come out (like me) and you play singleplayer games.

I dont use Windows at all. Linux only, and even tho with Proton and everything, it doesnt run that well. So its an amazing experience with me, pair with a PS5, the best of both worlds.

[@Assa_Gino]

whats they mean with session lenght tho?, like how long you can play the game in streaming after u started it? so if now i play lets say 8hrs then the the stream will be canceled, then i have to restart the stream again?

[@AncientGameplays]

I believe so, but maybe 8 hours a day total, can't say for sure

[@w061a09]

id much prefer to see the non ultimate membership experience where its limited to 60 fps with streaming latancy, and consider me interested, with wifi aswell if possible kinda getting to the point i dont want to get a upgrade asap after my 3070 so thiss definitely a possibility for me

[@AncientGameplays]

The latency is the same, the fps ans quality most likely aren't

@@AncientGameplays haha yea, shouldve set expectations in check in this case, pixelations might become a very glaring issue with wifi, probably gnna try it out soon for myself

[@XMoldyMe]

You've got good internet, but in my village, I have to play 30 FPS streaming otherwise the picture disintegrates or it does choppy Also, you're playing with AV1, which most laptops or PCs don't have. You have to have something newer and it's not worth it there because the game will run fine

[@AncientGameplays]

Av1 can be decoded by the cpu as well

[@christophermullins7163]

"Frame gen makes games unplayable" and here fabio is having a decent experience on a remote gaming setup. People crap on upscaling and framegen for some reason. I think it is "traditional" to run all native and people are afraid of new things. Frame gen is the sheet 100%. Although, if i were playing remote I would probably try to get 80fps without fg. Still.. obviously playable.

[@AncientGameplays]

Because those things all started like crap, but are now performing decently well

[@figrider]

1090€ for 5 years of very noticeable inferior experience... sounds like a scam. And that value can be fully funnelled into the rig itself, meaning that you always need to buy peripherals (headset, monitor, mouse, keyboard, etc) either with GeForce Now or your own rig, so this value can be fully dedicated to the rig.

[@AncientGameplays]

Disagree, depends on where you live mainly. Remember you can use it on your TV, tablet, etc. AND after the new gpus get release, the gpus from geforce now will get updated as well...if you're buying new, 700 euros is a price of a low to mid range pc here... But like stated, this all comes to what people want or need. Fo i believe this is great for a full time solution? Nope, of course not. Is this grat to use for 2 or 3 months when out of money to upgrade? Maybe

[@joangelmartinez]

pretty sure this will cause GPU prices to go down in a long term since people won't need to buy them anymore, but I'm still old school and like to have my own hardware haha
