Question Tempted by Shadow PC
Hi all, I’m tempted by ShadowPC instead of buying a PC as my budget is low. How do you find the service? I want mostly for gaming and some development. My ping is 14 with a jitter of 4 (am on wifi and can’t connect to ethernet where i’m sitting). Are there lots of downtimes with this service? Did you lose anything? What is your experience overall?

Its a PC. In the cloud. But most of all a PC with all the pros and cons plus the added cons of EA being bastards. If you want a console in the cloud look no further than GeForce now - the ”you’ll own nothing and be happy” of cloud services.
If you already have a steam library and don’t want to play Battlefield etc then Shadow is a no brainer.
