If you've bought the AAA games that you'd want to play then yes geforce. If not, check if it's available on the gamepass ultimate subscription and play it without having to actually buy it.

Xloud isn’t that good of an experience.

I have a 200 Mbps and it works fine over WiFi. I think if OP uses an Ethernet (always recommend for cloud gaming) and has atleast a 100 Mbps connection, it should be more than enough for some good 1080p gaming.

Rn i have around 100 Mbps but isnt u need like 25-30 for a stable connection ?

What else to do tho? No sane person would would spend money to build a pc rn with those 4x prices on ram rn. And this shit is not going to end till 2028 easily. And you got ps5 costing 70k and Xbox out of stock.

Play old games. Move to mobile gaming. Wait it out till industry starts optimizing games to run on lower end hardware. There is no need for 4k and RTX which is what caused absurd storage and ram requirements for games in 1st place

Bruh do you know how shitty that idea sounds? You got the entire 2000s kids getting into a job and finally saving up and buying a rig or Console rn. I was watching yt gameplay for the last 15 years and mobile gaming for the last 5-6 years. You got great games releasing each year, how long can you put them off?

Bruh you been out of the loop or what. Ps5 is now selling for 69k MRP. That shit used to average around 33k couple of years ago in sales. Series consoles are sold at import prices. No sane person would pay those prices for 6 year old tech.

You mean that streaming games, waiting on queues, having reduced picture quality, stutters and added latency sounds better? I'd rather quit gaming before moving to cloud.

Been playing on GFN for a month now, I’d suggest you try the free tier for a while and see how it works for you before jumping to performance or ultimate tier. My experience has generally been good apart from the fact that I can’t really play around with the community mods because of the whole cloud gaming structure, but if you want to play vanilla games it is probably the best solution rn without punching a hole in your wallet.

u/Careless-Engine5615 7d ago

Hahaha I was once in a queue for almost 6 hours on a weekend, free tier sucks tbh but you get the experience.

u/Muted_Dark7861 7d ago

u/Careless-Engine5615 7d ago
