It's quite impressive I must say, it uses a shit tonne of bandwidth though so you need internet over 100mb to run it. It's not consistent at the same time , it was randomly dropping down to 960x540 resolution at time which is a nightmare when playing online Out of curiosity after a week of using it , I checked my data usage on Windows 10 and the results are below hxtr and Super Max 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the announced pricing and policies will likely only appeal to intermittent gamers or Mac owners who have few alternatives for playing Windows-based games. ___ Is this part of the effort to connect PC games, XBox and Playstation games?

One of the next xbox's is going to be a cloud streaming box. They are bringing out a regular xbox too but the streaming one will be at a reduced price with a subscription based plan I presume. I seen an article of it not too long ago. So the whole cloud gaming thing could be big in the next few years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

According to the game it was running a 24gb GPU called Nvidia Tesla P40 I looked up the card shortly after and the card costs over €10,000 https://www.dell.com/en-ie/work/shop/nvidia-tesla-p40-24gb-gpu-passive-cust-kit/apd/489-bbco/graphic-video-cards It's not everyday you get to game on a €10k card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
