On GeForce Now: May the GeForce be with you

GeForce Now

If you want a powerful GPU but it’s not in your budget, you can now use an RTX 5080 to run Triple-A games. And it will cost you just a few dollars each month if you sign up for Nvidia GeForce Now.

Nvidia is installing RTX 5080s at data centers and expects to complete this initial phase by November.

As a result, users of the GeForce Now cloud gaming platform will see a leap forward in performance, capabilities, image quality, latency, and game availability.

These GPUs can be virtualized for less demanding games using the Blackwell Multi-Instance GPU (MIG) feature, which, for the first time, allows for spatial separation of partitions. Nvidia told us they are excited to try this new feature, as they’ve previously used time slicing.

At Gamescom, Nvidia introduced the Blackwell architecture to GeForce Now, marking the most significant step forward for the service since its launch. With this update, members can access GeForce RTX 5080-class GPUs in the cloud, unlocking higher performance levels along with AI-driven features designed to refine gameplay.
