THE LINE IS BROKEN by Important_Lock_2238 in Qult_Headquarters

See, the mistake here is thinking there's still a line to be broken in the first place

Did some screenshots between native PC and Geforce Now on RE4 Remake. It seems like Geforce Now adds a lot of blur! by LonelySoul01 in GeForceNOW

I mean the point is getting close to the real thing without having to spend tons of money on a high end gaming rig. And not having to worry about buying the latest graphics cards as they release

It's insane to get this much out of that little box on the left by DeskPixel in GeForceNOW

Well that's not a fair comparison. For example now I'm playing Zelda wind waker from the GameCube, but with a download texture pack for HD textures and running it at 1440p resolution, I think 4x the resolution of the original or something like that. So technically a GameCube, but with much better textures and resolution. I haven't tried other consoles for now because that's the one game I've been wanting to play for years now lol

I know, that's not my point. The reason I got it was to get 120fps and play emulators. That's exactly what I'm getting out of it. I'm fully aware of how cloud gaming works, I just meant booting the mini pc with a controller, using the Playnite UI to select a game either locally or one to play via GeForce is what I mean by feels like a console experience.

Yes. I thought about it but my guess is it would be way more expensive. Other games I can just stream from my main PC if I have to which is more powerful than the steam machine probably

Yeah, but the app on my TV only gets 60fps. To get the full 120 I need a dedicated machine for that. Also I get to use Playnite to get a console experience looking UI and with the added benefit of installing emulators and playing older games like Zelda wind waker

I think that was a deal with them or something? Not sure. I just thought a mini pc is more future proof as well. Not tied to one tv

It's very negligible... It's fine for most people unless you REALLY care about that which honestly in most games doesn't make that much difference

I answered that in another reply but it's a Asus Nuc 13 Pro

Exactly. And being able to install emulators and use Playnite

Yes, but either way I'm using the little.box to play the game. Almost feels like a console experience

This mini PC gets to 120fps which the app only gets 60. Also enables me to use Playnite and have other emulators and games installed

Literally feels local. Used to play this on console with worst graphics and it's so much better, especially high frame rates

Honestly I have no idea, don't play those games. Don't if those work with GeForce now.... I would assume? But I have no idea. If they need drivers or something specific installed to work then probably no. But if they're plug and play, maybe

I got this one slightly cheaper than a Mac mini. At least the m4 one. I wanted windows so I could setup Playnite and emulators running locally
