If you are to play only 1080p then you should try the lower tier since it shouldn't change anything at this point. Maybe even try the free tier to compare the performance at 1080p
FYI this was NVIDIAs goal from the beginning, that's why cards are so expensive and will keep getting more expensive. They want everyone to "rent" their GPU indefinitely through cloud services. This is also why they removed Game Streaming from your local PC on NVIDIA Shields recently. Watch...the prices will keep going up on hardware until this is the only option. They make more money renting server blades then on individual cards.
Yeah this concept scares me…We’re gonna get to a point where we as consumers don’t technically own anything lol. Which basically means we’re slaves to the company’s to whom we “buy” things from indefinitely. Already bad enough with car loans and phone payment plans. Now it’ll be my GPU too! Lol
You seem very confident about the validity of your assertion here. Do you have any inside information or something to back up your claims? Or can you admit that this is just some rando speculation?
This is great. I can keep my 1080ti forever for playing normal games. Then when I want to play cyber punk at 100fps I can pay 20 bucks for 1 month complete the game and didn't need to pay 2000 for a new GPU and then cancel my sub
Lol yeah cyberpunk is the only game that really gives me any problems and I'm running a 10 year old system. Handles every other game fine. Great option to have for sure.
I live about 800 miles away to the closest server. I will honestly say, it’s freaking awesome. I don’t have a need to buy hardware again except for screen tech. I’ve tried the service all the way from Utah, Georgia, Texas, Tennessee, middle of the country side of England and london, New York and Florida. I will say the only place I had issues where it made me not want to play was in a very small mountain town in utah
Well idk how close the server is to me, but it runs shockingly well on my laptop almost like it's running natively on my screen... I was legitimately impressed that it was all steaming.
Geforce Now has come a long way and is pretty incredible. I've been bringing a portable monitor, mouse and keyboard with me on my travels lately and use Samsung Dex on my phone to run Geforce Now to play Destiny 2 flawlessly from (most) hotels. That just blows my mind. Being able to play high end games on low end hardware is a great option to have. I can even play latency free off of good 5G or LTE sometimes.
Same here!! I just recently purchased the XReal Air glasses and that acts as a monitor. Plug it in to my phone, load up Dex, and load up GeForce Now and play with a dualsense controller. It's crazy!
There’s still the issue of not being able to have access to your ENTIRE game library through GFN (games come and go from the service all the time so if a game you’ve been playing all of a sudden is removed from GFN it doesn’t matter if the game is in your Steam, Epic, etc. library, you can’t play it). Also, there are areas that still deal in data caps so unless you’ve paid the extra to remove it, 13-16 GB/hour will add up quickly if you game a lot (ex.: competitive gaming).
To further this, a hell of a lot of countries still don't have the infrastructure. I know a lot of places in the UK (especially more rural locations) that can't barely achieve 10Mb/s, which makes playing GFN effectively impossible. I think GFN is cool in theory, but I don't think we'll see much value for quite a while.
nah, they just found a way to ensure that even people with little money can still play and enjoy some games, without dropping 1k or more for a graphics card
@Chig_Beggers it's not intended for those markets. I'm playing with zero latency at 4k from home. Enjoying the service a ton and can see that this is going to be the future
fuck the antsy devs that couldn't handle being on GFN, I bought my game on Steam, I have full rights to do what I please with it, I can run it on proton or emulate it or let a company like nvidia host it so I can play! copyright is so stupid
Hard pass, I would rather give up PC gaming altogether if GPU companies cannot bring affordable hardware to the market. Even after the pandemic, GPU manufacturers seem to be unable or more likely unwilling to release reasonably priced graphics cards. I refuse to "rent" a piece of hardware that would be otherwise be easily obtainable if these companies had more competition to stifle their greed. A mid range GPU should not cost $1,000. This is all about money and controlling the consumer as it always is.

GeForce now is a game CHANGER for the steam deck. Being able to max out any game you want and play at 60fps is incredible. In my experience it hasnt felt any different from playing the game natively in terms of input delay. I went from barely getting 40fps on low settings in the division 2 on the deck to having it stable 60fps with everything maxed and actually rendering and 1920x1200. Absolutely insane!

I call that a steal, why spend 6k on a pc each 2--3 years for gaming when i can spend 50-100 for 3 years when i feel like playing games.
By "Jumper" do you mean you've escalated your excitement to the point that you have physically and temporarily increased your height for this very informative video?
If the game you want to play is available on GFN and you don't plan any modding, have high speed and low latency internet connection, don't rely on custom keybinds for each game etc. then GFN is definitely Worth it.
I went 10 years with out buying cloths and the new cloths I brought are crap quality because you cant buy good quality cloths that don't fall apart immediately so I buy merch clothing from companies and they are good quality and not stupid expensive for no reason also I think the games settings are set at the lowest for easier streaming because people have bad internet?
I signed up to play pc games for times when im away from home and im very impressed. I would always rather have my own hardware but this is very very good if you have a good connection. Id recommend for those who dont want to dump 1k plus into a build but still want to pc game
Been using geforce now for over a yr now and it works great. Only issue is not all games are supported. I use my rtx3050 laptop to subsidize the library and GFN to subsidize performance
hmm , i see a price of £15 per month . £130 for a year with 8 hours a day for someone like myself is not bad at all. Not hardcore competitive gamer and cannot justify a hefty price tag for a good gaming rig. 100+Hz at 1080P is not bad IMO. Also, some say that direct mouse input improves things a bit, not sure though as I have not tried it. But i think nothing less than a full fibre connectivity would cut it which is also becoming common. Think I will take a punt and sign up.
Stadia failed because that's what google does... geoforce now is way better nowadays anyway. I personally have a custom built pc but I play geoforce now when im away from home and it's pretty good
Okay, here's my take on GeForce NOW: I recently purchased a subscription for GeForce NOW. I'm using a pc that can run smaller games (Like Minecraft, Terraria, even Valorant on lower settings with a little bit of lag, and fortnite on super low settings with a good amount of lag) and sadly cannot run my favorite titles like Ark, or Battlefield. Because of this, there's been a few games sitting in my steam library that I physically cannot play, which I picked up from sales. GeForce NOW allows me to play them on max settings at 60fps (all my monitor allows) and little to no lag, besides the blur due to my internet being pretty bad. For 20$ a month, that is absolutely a steal, no matter what issues it may have. The only real issue I have with GeForce NOW is the limited amount of games I can play. I'd love to play something like valorant, or finally be able to play that fun looking Minecraft modpack I've always wanted to play, but it's just not possible because GeForce NOW limits you to games of their choosing. This issue could be easily resolved by allowing users to just.. have full control over the pc. It'd come at no extra cost to Nvidia, and it would literally make them the #1 cloud pc service due to their low price, instantly cutting off competitors like Shadow Tech and others, and would definitely skyrocket their sales, and on top of that they could easily raise the price and STILL skyrocket in sales due to the fact that they basically have the best cloud pcs on the market. Another issue I have is the fact that I simply don't have access to the 4080 yet. It's not available where I live, and it looks like this has been rolling out for quite a while, so why isn't it available where I am? It just doesn't make much sense to me how slow they are with things like this. Overall I'd say GeForce NOW is well worth the low price of 20$/month. You do have to have your own games to use it but there's a solid amount of free games on there, in addition to the fact that steam often does large sales on games where you can get upwards of 90% off, and epic games flat out gives you free games every week that you get to keep and play on your account forever.
If it's blurry, have you tried changing the screen resolution. Mine was pretty blurry and once I changed the resolution to match my laptop's resolution, game resolution , GeForce resolution, the blur went
geforce now has potential but why are they offering redicolous 4k 120 fps. people who are into that are going to get their own rigs. they should just deliver a mainstream 1080p maybe 1200p 60 fps and good settings for people who are on laptops
They already do that? There are tiers to Geforce now. If you want 1080p 60 fps just go with the priority tier which is half the price. If you want QHD, then get ultimate and limit it to QHD. GeForce now even offers widescreen and 4:3 resolutions. It really is pretty versatile.
I expected this kind of gaming to die off with the laggy experience this had back then. Now, its a pretty good alternative. Now it all depends on the gamer's internet speed. However, i would rather have the pride to have a physical pc right beside me. Im planning to buy a 3060ti for me future pc.
Geforce NOW ultimate to me has gotten to the point where the game streaming is good enough for my needs that I don't feel an incentive to buy a prebuilt gaming pc (please don't insult me about the prebuilt part, PCs to me are a little bit confusing and I have tried learning about it before, I just prefer something simpler). Game streaming looks good enough for me, especially with the rtx 4080 tier of performance, where I can play games at 1440p 60 fps or 120 fps. If you have the luxury of being able to plug in an ethernet cable to whatever you want to game stream on, honestly really, really good!
yes test how good should the internet connection should be for decent performance. i feel like most wifi connections are infinite data until a certain limit and then speed and bandwidth get reduced for the month if the limit is crossed.
Once gfn comes to my laptop I can use it sort of like a harddrive to play my less competitive of less favourite game. Since I have a gaming laptop with an RTX 3060 and only 500gb storage, there's not much games I can store on the ssd. I'll keep my favourite, competitive games like Fortnite, Apex, Rocket league and csgo directly on my pc and I'll play my single player, less competitive games like Cyberpunk, Destiny 2 and The Witcher on GFN.
The thing is, if cloud gaming ever got to the point that it was equal to having a $2000 odd PC then the consumer gaming hardware market would go into meltdown...
Sponsor = So this than Buy all hardware like theirs and see how much is monthly in Bills because I don`t think I should made an gaming PC remember how much ------------------------------------------------------- geforce now cost and VS real hardware I choose shared hardware over real hardware £20 by geforce now £530 each week or more because cooling is not cheap for CPU which is very High in CPU- Speed
Totally worth it. I tried the cheapest service and in 1 month enough to crash n burn then restart and finish properly bg3. Because i work offshore so cant game everyday anyway. This solution is perfect.
Graphics card prices stopped me in my tracks for a couple of years. I saw you show how Cyberpunk 2077 needed a beast to play and gave up though it did look good. Later, I thought I'd get a Beelink 5600h mini-pc and forget about gaming. Then I found that all my old games played fine on it. And then I stumbled on 'Geforce Now' and how it supports Cyberpunk. I can do a free 1hr session and then log back in to carry on. Well worth a punt at no price. Not everything is on 'Geforce Now' so my old Bioshocks and Fallouts don't get the benefit. Or Doom which could have done with it. So, its not perfect. Still, just for Cyberpunk alone, free, looking good and playing smoothly in HD, I'm well pleased. The scalpers didn't get me and I can still be 'V' and brain-dance my way to new goons.
@@daunted2322 yeah, Ethernet cable, hard wired into my router (not wifi). The best my internet can get is 35mbs max, so not the best speeds for online streaming of a multiplayer, especially Apex
@@VFrames09 were you hard wired to your router or were you using your wifi? I think there will always be that element of high latency as you are essentially playing from a pc in another location on your computer over the Internet. I think for normal single play titles GFNow is great, but for online multiplayers, at the moment at least, it’s definitely not the best experience you will get
i would A - Wait 2-5 years or so until the gpu you want becomes less expensive and buy it for only half the jumper price. or B - buy it right now until 5 years later theres a new gpu everyone wants and the gpu you have is 20 dollars
I love GFN ultimate, I have a xbox series X and geforce now on my Samsung TV, i can play games at up to 120hz of xbox (limited amount) and any games in my library, gamepass not supported on GFN... and with GFN on my Samsung TV all the games i really want to play, especially ubisoft plus titles on ultra settings at 4K 60fps, raytracing etc, and normally £20 a month I got the summer deal 6months for £49:99, I would happily pay the full £20 a month, especially when i consider my xbox gamepass ultimate and ubisoft plus cost nearly £30, £50 a month for all my favourite games, people say "but you dont own it" so what physical media is dead, thank god for netflix, prime xbox gamepass and ubisoft plus 😊
It's laughable that you need a 4080 to play forspoken at 4k ultra 60 fps. I'm gonna cringe if the developers mean 4k 60 without ray tracing or with dlss. A 3070 or rx 6700 xt should be enough for that.
I found an issue. You need a strong WiFi network to play 4K resolution. and a lot of my steam games can not play. Such as Forza Horizon 4 or 5 not support. GTA V can not play. The Sims 4, PUBG.
I don’t buy it, there’s a clearly on 4090 with the cables turned towards the monitor. If you want me to believe you take out the 4090 and have no graphics card on your bench. I think this is faked
@@daunted2322 I’m just saying it would be easier to believe if there wasn’t a huge graphics card clearly running , I mean look at the fans, that normally means under load so yeah I don’t believe it, believe what you want but this was a sponsored video, NVIDIA was probably like me look good and run the 4090 while talking the 4089 talking points. Again would have been easier to believe if the 4090 wasn’t working I’m the background quite figurously
They just confirmed it, this had to be a scam as it definitely does not perform as well as a 4080 according to many other reviewers. These are run on data center gpu’s so say hello to you new 4070 at best lol Hahaha I knew it, total scam
basically a more expensive ver of cybers, idk if there's a diff name in other countries but " cybers " as we call it here are places whr u pay a buck or two to play on a high end pc with a time limit ( like 2 bucks for 3 hours? ). But GeForce now is like a stay home ver of that so idk.
@@silent118 huh, are you on wifi 2.4ghz or 5ghz? 2.4ghz is terrible, wired works very well, even at 4k 60fps(uses about 60mb) runs and looks flawless for me.

only part of your energy prices will rise is your network speed if I able to run 1080p on I think is bit laggy but I think is the CPU and GPU was the problem 1 core 1 threads from 2014 which is basicly Dead only the wired network was stay the same all the years OS: Keep lagging and running windows 10 which needs more than 2 core to work right GPU: 2014 AMD GPU ( 512mb ) with HALF CUT for OS
Looks smooth. But I am old fashioned and like my games that I play on my storage drives. Reason Latency. Good video on it though. Onlive went bust years ago. Stadia also tried and failed.
I'm done with PC gaming bro lmao. Starting last year I got a 3090 ti because my gpu couldn't handle my 4k monitor turns out the card had horrendous power draw and fan noise. So I waited till the other week and bought 7900xt at launch because 40 series is overpriced and it was under a grand. Turns out I have the overheating issue that some get with high refresh rate monitors. There are now reports that it may be more than just driver issues so I thought maybe I will get cracking and get a 4080 but nope. What cracked was my passion for PC gaming. It sux now. Availability, issues, shader stutter, bad ports, noisy, expensive, hot, power hungry during an energy crisis, searching reddit for hours because of some stupid issue you have. I'm done. My PC is now just for work or projects. At least I don't have to wait for PC ports nymore
I think the same way, PC gaming is a mess, a fragmented mess. And I'm a PC gamer since 1994. Just look at all the different launchers, drivers, updates, logins... and I think that GeForce Now helps in this regard. Every time you launch a game, the game is updated. In some cases you do have to insert credentials, but remember you don't have to install the game, nor deal with the disk space needed... I find that I rather have the PC experience provided by GFN, than having to choose components, assembling a desktop PC, installing everything, it's just too time consuming. Oh and regarding living room gaming, after spending hours and hours trying to optimize PC in-house streaming via Moonlight / Steam Remote, I ended up buying a Series X and it just simply works.
This could be ok if it connected to my steam library. Tried ngreedia troubleshooting but didn't work. Set my profile to public and it didn't work, even after disconnecting and reconnecting everything.
Here we go, this will continue until every single usable product has to be rented and not be bought. Gonna be nice not owning anything and depending on big companies for X, Y and Z. Ridiculous. I'm not saying I agree with GPU prices, but they're raising the prices and all of this stuff economically cause they want to go down this route where they rent out their products instead of having us own something for ourselves. They know they have a monopoly, they're doing it on purpose. I truly dislike this route. EDIT: Not to even mention the amount of data they would be collecting and selling by us renting their products like this, as if companies and social media aren't doing it enough already. Even Pfizer was talking about a pill you would have to swallow (for medication) at the World Economic Forum that has a chip in it and sends a signal to show if you actually swallowed the pill or not. Reminds you of something doesn't it? Ah yes, Tyranny. "Do what we tell you to do & oblige to our rules or be an outcast".

I call that a steal, why spend 6k on a pc each 2--3 years for gaming when i can spend 50-100 for 3 years when i feel like playing games.
Newt Scamander looks amazing in the new jumper 😊
By "Jumper" do you mean you've escalated your excitement to the point that you have physically and temporarily increased your height for this very informative video?
If the game you want to play is available on GFN and you don't plan any modding, have high speed and low latency internet connection, don't rely on custom keybinds for each game etc. then GFN is definitely Worth it.
I went 10 years with out buying cloths and the new cloths I brought are crap quality because you cant buy good quality cloths that don't fall apart immediately so I buy merch clothing from companies and they are good quality and not stupid expensive for no reason also I think the games settings are set at the lowest for easier streaming because people have bad internet?
I wish we had true 4K ultra wide monitors
I signed up to play pc games for times when im away from home and im very impressed. I would always rather have my own hardware but this is very very good if you have a good connection. Id recommend for those who dont want to dump 1k plus into a build but still want to pc game
Been using geforce now for over a yr now and it works great. Only issue is not all games are supported. I use my rtx3050 laptop to subsidize the library and GFN to subsidize performance
hmm , i see a price of £15 per month . £130 for a year with 8 hours a day for someone like myself is not bad at all. Not hardcore competitive gamer and cannot justify a hefty price tag for a good gaming rig. 100+Hz at 1080P is not bad IMO. Also, some say that direct mouse input improves things a bit, not sure though as I have not tried it.
But i think nothing less than a full fibre connectivity would cut it which is also becoming common. Think I will take a punt and sign up.
The clickbait is real, the depression is even worse
I used Shadow PC it's an entire virtualized PC service and it runs games wonderfully
I can answer both questions: No and No. Cloud gaming sucks, you know it, I know it, everybody knows it. That's why stadia failed.
"Cloud gaming sucks, you know it, I know it, everybody knows it." sweeping statements with little to no thought for accuracy.
Aged like milk
Stadia failed because that's what google does... geoforce now is way better nowadays anyway. I personally have a custom built pc but I play geoforce now when im away from home and it's pretty good
Okay, here's my take on GeForce NOW:
I recently purchased a subscription for GeForce NOW. I'm using a pc that can run smaller games (Like Minecraft, Terraria, even Valorant on lower settings with a little bit of lag, and fortnite on super low settings with a good amount of lag) and sadly cannot run my favorite titles like Ark, or Battlefield. Because of this, there's been a few games sitting in my steam library that I physically cannot play, which I picked up from sales. GeForce NOW allows me to play them on max settings at 60fps (all my monitor allows) and little to no lag, besides the blur due to my internet being pretty bad. For 20$ a month, that is absolutely a steal, no matter what issues it may have. The only real issue I have with GeForce NOW is the limited amount of games I can play. I'd love to play something like valorant, or finally be able to play that fun looking Minecraft modpack I've always wanted to play, but it's just not possible because GeForce NOW limits you to games of their choosing.
This issue could be easily resolved by allowing users to just.. have full control over the pc. It'd come at no extra cost to Nvidia, and it would literally make them the #1 cloud pc service due to their low price, instantly cutting off competitors like Shadow Tech and others, and would definitely skyrocket their sales, and on top of that they could easily raise the price and STILL skyrocket in sales due to the fact that they basically have the best cloud pcs on the market.
Another issue I have is the fact that I simply don't have access to the 4080 yet. It's not available where I live, and it looks like this has been rolling out for quite a while, so why isn't it available where I am? It just doesn't make much sense to me how slow they are with things like this.
Overall I'd say GeForce NOW is well worth the low price of 20$/month. You do have to have your own games to use it but there's a solid amount of free games on there, in addition to the fact that steam often does large sales on games where you can get upwards of 90% off, and epic games flat out gives you free games every week that you get to keep and play on your account forever.
If it's blurry, have you tried changing the screen resolution. Mine was pretty blurry and once I changed the resolution to match my laptop's resolution, game resolution , GeForce resolution, the blur went
geforce now has potential but why are they offering redicolous 4k 120 fps. people who are into that are going to get their own rigs. they should just deliver a mainstream 1080p maybe 1200p 60 fps and good settings for people who are on laptops
They already do that? There are tiers to Geforce now. If you want 1080p 60 fps just go with the priority tier which is half the price. If you want QHD, then get ultimate and limit it to QHD. GeForce now even offers widescreen and 4:3 resolutions. It really is pretty versatile.
@@mattyin3229 i have priority queue which does not get 4k 120fps but there are still wait times on weekends
I expected this kind of gaming to die off with the laggy experience this had back then. Now, its a pretty good alternative. Now it all depends on the gamer's internet speed.
However, i would rather have the pride to have a physical pc right beside me. Im planning to buy a 3060ti for me future pc.
I have 500 mbps down I hope that’s enough for it to run smoothly
@@Rav1611 35mbps seems to be the minimum requirment.
@@Rav1611 thats half a gig per second, about 10 times better than mine. Which is the fastest 50mbps. You should be fine with that fast speed.
@@Rav1611 that's faster than 90% of the world
@@LukeJukeDuke damn okay, a few years ago I had to struggle with 10mbps tops I feel blessed now
Geforce NOW ultimate to me has gotten to the point where the game streaming is good enough for my needs that I don't feel an incentive to buy a prebuilt gaming pc (please don't insult me about the prebuilt part, PCs to me are a little bit confusing and I have tried learning about it before, I just prefer something simpler). Game streaming looks good enough for me, especially with the rtx 4080 tier of performance, where I can play games at 1440p 60 fps or 120 fps. If you have the luxury of being able to plug in an ethernet cable to whatever you want to game stream on, honestly really, really good!
This way you can go Team red, and if RTX games start exploding in popularity, you can just "rent" a 4080 :P
Interesting tech, but I have grown to hate never ending subscription services lol!
True, one really has to make note of which services are active, as smallish payments just get lost in a sea of transactions, and hard to manage.
Well if you have a godly internet, yes.
Not only that, you have to be somewhat nier the servers
@@Charly_dvorak true
Do you need really good internet or will it make your internet lag?
Is Microsoft flight simulator available to play?
yes test how good should the internet connection should be for decent performance. i feel like most wifi connections are infinite data until a certain limit and then speed and bandwidth get reduced for the month if the limit is crossed.
Man started a video with Destiny 2. Kinda shocked since its usually not even in most benchmarks.
Once gfn comes to my laptop I can use it sort of like a harddrive to play my less competitive of less favourite game.
Since I have a gaming laptop with an RTX 3060 and only 500gb storage, there's not much games I can store on the ssd. I'll keep my favourite, competitive games like Fortnite, Apex, Rocket league and csgo directly on my pc and I'll play my single player, less competitive games like Cyberpunk, Destiny 2 and The Witcher on GFN.
So like... Does a rope come with that jumper?
The thing is, if cloud gaming ever got to the point that it was equal to having a $2000 odd PC then the consumer gaming hardware market would go into meltdown...
4080 for £20 a month
Sponsor = "Yeah don't do that".
Sponsor = So this than
Buy all hardware like theirs and see how much is monthly in Bills
because I don`t think I should made an gaming PC
remember how much
-------------------------------------------------------
geforce now cost and VS real hardware
I choose shared hardware over real hardware
£20 by geforce now
£530 each week or more
because cooling is not cheap for CPU which is very High in CPU- Speed
Not interested until it runs Runescape 3
Totally worth it. I tried the cheapest service and in 1 month enough to crash n burn then restart and finish properly bg3. Because i work offshore so cant game everyday anyway. This solution is perfect.
I'd pay $20 for a jumperless video...
I like the jumper!
Graphics card prices stopped me in my tracks for a couple of years. I saw you show how Cyberpunk 2077 needed a beast to play and gave up though it did look good. Later, I thought I'd get a Beelink 5600h mini-pc and forget about gaming. Then I found that all my old games played fine on it. And then I stumbled on 'Geforce Now' and how it supports Cyberpunk. I can do a free 1hr session and then log back in to carry on. Well worth a punt at no price.
Not everything is on 'Geforce Now' so my old Bioshocks and Fallouts don't get the benefit. Or Doom which could have done with it. So, its not perfect. Still, just for Cyberpunk alone, free, looking good and playing smoothly in HD, I'm well pleased. The scalpers didn't get me and I can still be 'V' and brain-dance my way to new goons.
What the hell is a jumper? Is that a UK name for a shirt/sweater?
yup :D we jump into it
Great vid. I tried GF Now on my Mac, playing Apex Legends with a really cack internet…. ….never again, it was awful
Was this ethernet?
@@daunted2322 yeah, Ethernet cable, hard wired into my router (not wifi). The best my internet can get is 35mbs max, so not the best speeds for online streaming of a multiplayer, especially Apex
@@gwengo4167 Ah yes, looking it up, it does seem 35Mbps is the minimum, and perhaps if your connection is riding the minimum limit. Unfortunate.
@@VFrames09 were you hard wired to your router or were you using your wifi? I think there will always be that element of high latency as you are essentially playing from a pc in another location on your computer over the Internet. I think for normal single play titles GFNow is great, but for online multiplayers, at the moment at least, it’s definitely not the best experience you will get
love the new hair bro
So if you exchanged your new jumper for any GPU... What would it be?
i would
A - Wait 2-5 years or so until the gpu you want becomes less expensive and buy it for only half the jumper price.
or B - buy it right now until 5 years later theres a new gpu everyone wants and the gpu you have is 20 dollars
What the hell is a jumper?
it's cost efficient, obviously it lacks quality but this is the most frames $20/month can buy
It is not for $20, it is $20 a month. This is a huge difference turning this title into a click bait.
I love GFN ultimate, I have a xbox series X and geforce now on my Samsung TV, i can play games at up to 120hz of xbox (limited amount) and any games in my library, gamepass not supported on GFN... and with GFN on my Samsung TV all the games i really want to play, especially ubisoft plus titles on ultra settings at 4K 60fps, raytracing etc, and normally £20 a month I got the summer deal 6months for £49:99, I would happily pay the full £20 a month, especially when i consider my xbox gamepass ultimate and ubisoft plus cost nearly £30, £50 a month for all my favourite games, people say "but you dont own it" so what physical media is dead, thank god for netflix, prime xbox gamepass and ubisoft plus 😊
I have like 2 Mbit/s and between 19 and 20k ping. Will this be enough for 4k 120hz? Obv no. I watch in 360p 30 fps rn...
that colour g pro x superlight isnt out yet
how about the increased internet fee 😅
Well I guess we'll at least be able to play Forspoken now.
It's laughable that you need a 4080 to play forspoken at 4k ultra 60 fps. I'm gonna cringe if the developers mean 4k 60 without ray tracing or with dlss. A 3070 or rx 6700 xt should be enough for that.
That is a nice jumper!!
Is there any difference between the latency on the 2 packages? 🧐
What's the thread count on that bad boy?
Jumper Centric
No way, a new jumper
@@khaseem_srt It's a whole new world this 2023
I found an issue. You need a strong WiFi network to play 4K resolution. and a lot of my steam games can not play. Such as Forza Horizon 4 or 5 not support. GTA V can not play. The Sims 4, PUBG.
Oh so it's probably like the stadia
at least geforce now Don`t force full game prices to access all the games
I was a part of the GMS Jumpin' Jammers.... Still don't know what a "Jumper" is...
I don’t buy it, there’s a clearly on 4090 with the cables turned towards the monitor. If you want me to believe you take out the 4090 and have no graphics card on your bench. I think this is faked
he explains it in the video :P it just a build left over from the last video.
@@daunted2322 I’m just saying it would be easier to believe if there wasn’t a huge graphics card clearly running , I mean look at the fans, that normally means under load so yeah I don’t believe it, believe what you want but this was a sponsored video, NVIDIA was probably like me look good and run the 4090 while talking the 4089 talking points. Again would have been easier to believe if the 4090 wasn’t working I’m the background quite figurously
@@rikogarza1729 an actual 4090 would have provided better results. Apex didn't look that great.
They just confirmed it, this had to be a scam as it definitely does not perform as well as a 4080 according to many other reviewers. These are run on data center gpu’s so say hello to you new 4070 at best lol Hahaha I knew it, total scam
@@rikogarza1729 people who think themselves wise, tend not to be so.

Great video. Is Geforce Now 4080 as good as a physical RTX 4070?
Its better, its a 4080 vs a 4070. Its literally like you’re playing on your own PC based on your internet connection.
??? geforce now 4080 is as good as a 4080 phyiscal
Do you have to own the game on top of paying £20 pm?
Yes you do!
Yes, essentially building a 4080 rig, you are renting one. They have a priority tier for $10 a month which nets you a 2080 rig
basically a more expensive ver of cybers, idk if there's a diff name in other countries but " cybers " as we call it here are places whr u pay a buck or two to play on a high end pc with a time limit ( like 2 bucks for 3 hours? ). But GeForce now is like a stay home ver of that so idk.
i think its very good but the only problem is the input delay if u dont have very good internet

Good news everyone! (in profressor farnsworth voice)
i think with UK energy prices, £20 per month is a bargain. i have a 3090. which i have had to cut back on gaming because of the power draw :(
only part of your energy prices will rise is your network speed
if I able to run 1080p on
I think is bit laggy but I think is the CPU and GPU was the problem
1 core 1 threads from 2014 which is basicly Dead
only the wired network was stay the same all the years
OS: Keep lagging and running windows 10 which needs more than 2 core to work right
GPU: 2014 AMD GPU ( 512mb ) with HALF CUT for OS
is this the british Linus?
Excellent video and best review on GeForce now I have seen yet, well done thank you.
20$!? No wonder why i got here in 20 minutes!

I'm done with PC gaming bro lmao. Starting last year I got a 3090 ti because my gpu couldn't handle my 4k monitor turns out the card had horrendous power draw and fan noise. So I
waited till the other week and bought 7900xt at launch because 40 series is overpriced and it was under a grand. Turns out I have
the overheating issue that some get with high refresh rate monitors. There are now reports that it may be more than just driver issues so I thought maybe I will get cracking and get a 4080 but nope. What cracked was my passion for PC gaming. It sux now. Availability, issues, shader stutter, bad ports, noisy, expensive, hot, power hungry during an energy crisis, searching reddit for hours because of some stupid issue you have. I'm done. My PC is now just for work or projects. At least I don't have to wait for PC ports nymore
consoles are way more affordable
@@dolurosu true...in the mean time I bought a 6950XT
I think the same way, PC gaming is a mess, a fragmented mess. And I'm a PC gamer since 1994. Just look at all the different launchers, drivers, updates, logins... and I think that GeForce Now helps in this regard. Every time you launch a game, the game is updated. In some cases you do have to insert credentials, but remember you don't have to install the game, nor deal with the disk space needed... I find that I rather have the PC experience provided by GFN, than having to choose components, assembling a desktop PC, installing everything, it's just too time consuming. Oh and regarding living room gaming, after spending hours and hours trying to optimize PC in-house streaming via Moonlight / Steam Remote, I ended up buying a Series X and it just simply works.
You dont get 4080 performance. Its closer to 4070 performance. No thanks i would rather be in control of my own entertianment.

Here we go, this will continue until every single usable product has to be rented and not be bought. Gonna be nice not owning anything and depending on big companies for X, Y and Z. Ridiculous.
I'm not saying I agree with GPU prices, but they're raising the prices and all of this stuff economically cause they want to go down this route where they rent out their products instead of having us own something for ourselves. They know they have a monopoly, they're doing it on purpose. I truly dislike this route.
EDIT: Not to even mention the amount of data they would be collecting and selling by us renting their products like this, as if companies and social media aren't doing it enough already. Even Pfizer was talking about a pill you would have to swallow (for medication) at the World Economic Forum that has a chip in it and sends a signal to show if you actually swallowed the pill or not. Reminds you of something doesn't it? Ah yes, Tyranny. "Do what we tell you to do & oblige to our rules or be an outcast".
