    I know Nvidia doesn't work on Gamestream anymore, but I would love to see this type of VRR support implemented in Moonlight/Sunshine.

      Moonlight with sunshine works with vrr but the funny thing is the client has to use an AMD GPU for decoding.

    Putting game pass on geforce was a stroke of genius, playing games like Starfield, Remnants 2 and Diablo 4 on a 4080 is a real treat.

    I've used the 4080 tier service for the past couple of months, and it's pretty incredible when it works. There was a 2-3 week period when I kept getting kicked off the servers despite no problems on my end, but I haven't had any trouble lately. It's also a bit buggy: there's an option to keep your game settings between play sessions, but if I use it I get constant screen tearing no matter what I do. Once I uncheck that option, however, the problem clears up. I can also confirm that playing with a gamepad hides a lot of latency (I have reflex enabled as well).
    I'm still rocking a 6700k with a GTX 1080, so to have access to a high end rig to play Cyberpunk with path tracing is amazing.

      Really hard to say it's not on your end. I've been through this myself when blaming servers when sometimes my ISP is having issues and working 99% of the time, but just enough issues at the 1% to cause drops whether it be something like Warframe or even streaming/TH-cam. WIFI in general can cause moments of interference or drops as well. There's just so many factors, but very easy to point the finger and blame the receiving network automatically. Since packets often travel different paths to reach a destination, it can even be one path out of many that just isn't up to snuff and is enough to kick you as data isn't coming together. Many times have I assumed it was the server down or having issues until looking it up and finding out it's just me and I'm having some instability somewhere. Even a VPN left on through tunneling causes issues. Many times a simple shut down of the router and booting it back up fixes the instability as it can have issues in the routing tables and needing a flush to re update them.

    When it works, and in my experience the past 4months or so it usually does, it's a pretty amazing service. It will likely be awhile before it pleases the biggest pixel peepers out there. But for 99% of people, it's quite amazing. Could definitely see this, or something similar being the future of PC gaming.

    Let’s hope Nvidia fixes VRR on macOS/freesync, it’s not working correctly at the moment.
    When moving the mouse the Hz jumps to the monitor’s max disrupting VRR completely. The reason seems to be that even if the app is full screen macOS uses an hardware cursor that is tied to the monitor Hz rather than following game FPS and what VRR tells the system to set Hz to

    Lack of Sony published games is the biggest annoyance for me. But even on Starlink with ~28ms ping I find a lot of games to be really enjoyable. You can increase the bitrate too for higher quality.

    the overlay shows you playing at 4k60 with a gigabit connection but only 50mbps was being used. why dont they let people who have a internet connection, router, cpu and gpu that can handle a higher bitrate to use it to get a less compressed and more detailed stream? like maybe not gigabit but if were paying for the top tier subscription why not let it go to like 100 or 150 mbps atleast. still the same framrate or res but just a less compressed video stream to get higher detail

      As a home user, sending 100 Mbps would cost me 35 bucks a month. With such expense, would you set up a 100 Mbps service for 20 bucks a month?
      In my region, 50 Mbps is near half the price.
      Enterprise is somewhat different of course, but basically bandwidth is not free.
