Gaming via streaming is trendy that follows a lot of companies, although sometimes not quite right. Nvidia with their service, GeForce Now points out to be the key indicator in the technological future. If you don't know how this kind of service works, the idea is to use someone's device performance to play your games.
Sign in to the application with your Nvidia account, which you can download at this website. There is two membership choice you can make. Standard access is free in comparison to premium access which costs 5€ per month. With premium access, you don't have to wait in a queue to connect and play up to 6 hours a day, RTX function is activated in supported games, and you can try this service for 90 days for free. Standard access allows you to play one hour a day without the above-mentioned advantages.
Now, the games are waiting for you. Play games for free like DOTA 2, Apex Legends, Fortnite, World of Tanks or choose a game which you own. In this case, GeForce Now will require a login to GOG or Steam account. The game will be installed in a digital cloud, and you can play.
During the launch, the application checks your internet connection and rate which quality it can stream the game to you. GeForce Now requires the bandwidth 15 Mb/s at minimum (720p, 60 FPS), 25 Mb/s (1080p, 60 FPS). It's necessary to use a cable connection or connection to the router with the 5GHz network. Besides, it needs your device to have two cores CPU with clock 2GHz and 4 GB RAM. Dedicated graphics card Intel HD Graphics 2000 is minimum.
Personally, I have experience with the standard membership and games like The Witcher 3, Wild Hunt and Apex Legends. RPG games from the third person are slower, so you don't feel the reaction at a specific time in comparison to FPS shooters like Apex Legends. I didn't wait in a queue, the game loaded immediately. Sometimes, I saw my screen pixelized due to lower connection or unstable connection to the internet. Even though, I do can recommend for those who do not want to spend their money to get a high-end machine to play the newest games.
