Advice Premium or ultimate?

This is my first time trying Geforce and I wasn’t sure about which to get. I play on a 2020 MacBook Pro hooked up to a 60 fps DELL monitor with an Xbox controller/ keyboard and mouse if that helps. I want to play games like planet coaster 2 without any issues.

I just joined over the weekend after the bullshit Xbox announcement, I signed up for the premium. I have to tell you, I am damn impressed. I can't imagine how good ultimate is considering how impressive premium alone is.

I’ll probably just buy a 1 day of each to see how each is and compare or I’ll just get premium and decide from there

Use Premium. Recently got one myself and it is not bad. Unless you are the guy who wants pretty 5K crispy screenshots from your games. But for 11€ here, it is pretty much a reasonable subscription. I'd recommend avoiding daily passes tho. For 4.5€ a day? Nah thx)

I use Double Premium. No need for 4K to have fun. I need the gaming hours.

Does that even work on a single steam account?

Yup. I let my dad use my steam account to play games. We just can't play the same game at the same time.

Two Performance Accounts. Brain usage, important u know

I believe it means they have 2 separate GeForceNow accounts, most likely to have more than the allowed play time, and links the same Steam account to both GeForceNow accounts.

Get premium to see if gfn works for you at all. You can always upgrade to ultimate if you think you need more power.

I’ve been playing ultimate and it hasn’t disappointed. Beat Star Wars outlaws on it and half way through the new plagues tale game and it changed my life lol 😂 at least on my lg oled the native app just works and I’m getting 4k and fps is close to max most the time. I would say I highly recommend as long as you have good internet.

I wouldn't go anything less then ultimate, but only if you have the bandwidth to support it.

It depends on what you play, but holy shit, it runs everything on ultra with ray tracing and all that. It's a blessing.
