NVIDIA says the updated SuperPOD systems used by GeForce NOW are capable of processing and streaming games at up to 240 frames per second. They also work well with G-Sync-enabled monitors and are the first to feature Reflex technology to reduce latency from the source to the user’s monitor. At 4K resolution, games can be streamed at 120 FPS, which is two more than before. In addition, the GeForce NOW service received support for ultra-wide monitors with resolutions up to 3840 × 1600 pixels.
The company also announced a new GeForce NOW Ultimate plan, which replaces the older plan with the GeForce RTX 3080 as the gaming platform. The cost of the new flagship tariff will be $20 per month. For that price, the user will have access to a GeForce RTX 4080-based cloud gaming system. The company is also offering a 6-month GeForce NOW Ultimate subscription for $100 ($20 off). The company plans to introduce the use of the GeForce RTX 4080 on GeForce NOW servers in the US and Europe before the end of this month.
