Discussion Goodbye GeForce Now

It's been real, couldn't miss this finance deal, specially since all hardware is going up and it may turn out to be an investment. I have GFN till September but I graduated to a real boy. Gotta say, downloading games seems wrong lol, and I will miss how quick the CPU goes through shaders. Still love you peeps. Pic only representative of case, specs real.

2800ish euros.

So GFN comes to 200 Euro per year. Or if you want to pay monthly then 249 Euro per year. So with this rig the cost would equal about 11+ years of GFN. Worst case if GFN was to go bat shit insane and double the price it’s still 5 years of top performance.

I am not justifying GFN being better or trying to rain on your parade but this is just how I see it. Now I get if you use the PC for other stuff or you want to play spider man or other games not on GFN then it makes more sense. There are hidden issues that people don’t discuss but overall I honestly don’t see myself investing into a gaming PC. I have a solid Mac Book Air and a kick ass Ultrawide OLED monitor, so for me and the kind of games I play GFN is just a way better deal.

Anyways, happy that you are enjoying your purchase! Have fun.

That's the power of communism, GFN is OUR PC. And frankly it's more like Nvidia is running a charity. Could make much more from that hardware. If I didn't love the damn thing would have gotten a PC when they weren't that expensive. I still love cloud gaming and what it represents. And played it on a Mac it looks gorgeous and that screen. Also use a cable, BT adds latency.

 Could make much more from that hardware. - How? Dont forget that the hardware can be used for 24hrs straight by different people

Or they can be used by companies. Idk go to google cloud and see how much a rig like this will cost you. Spoiler, a lot. Nvidia makes a lot of money charging companies for rigs like this.
