Key information
NVIDIA GeForce NOW, powered by CloudGG, is currently available in Australia, allowing users to stream games from remote RTX 4080-class GPUs. This service enables gameplay on various devices, including TVs, tablets, and handhelds like the Steam Deck, without requiring local installations.
The service utilizes advanced technologies such as DLSS, ray tracing, and NVIDIA Reflex to maintain performance. These features support streaming titles at up to 4K resolution at 120 FPS with HDR, aiming to provide an experience comparable to high-end local gaming PCs.
Common concerns regarding Australian internet speeds and latency are addressed by the presence of local servers. While streaming introduces some ping, users typically experience between 5 and 30 ms of latency. Furthermore, recent NBN upgrades provide bandwidth exceeding the 45 Mbps recommended for high-performance streaming.
GeForce NOW does not require users to repurchase their existing libraries. The platform integrates with storefronts like Steam, the Epic Games Store, and GOG, as well as PC Game Pass, allowing members to stream titles they already own directly to their supported hardware.
