Comment on $6.2B in profit wasn't enough: Nvidia hikes GeForce Now prices for Canada and Europe

I still support buying a decent graphics card and a game rather than paying a subscription while also buying the game. Their basic plans costs 10 euro per month which is 240 euro for 2 years which is average cost for a decent gaming card. And best part is you own it.

A 3060 is only 240 euro?

  You can get them for $399 here in Canada which converts to 276 euro. Seems reasonable they might be able to find one for 240 in their region.

I would rather get rx 6650 xt for gaming primarily. Don’t know about RTX 4000 series or RX 7000 series though.

Geforce Now is not at all about cost to me. I use GeForce Now because it allows me to play on my laptop, tablet, phone or TV anywhere I have an internet connection. I don’t have or want a desktop, and prefer to have a thin and light laptop for travel rather than a gaming laptop.

89kr/month for Denmark. That’s 2136DKK for 2 years of continuous service. The cheapest RTX 3060 right now on is 2199DKK. But guess what? I don’t have a tower pc. So I would need a CPU, case, memory, storage, case, PSU. I won’t bother putting together a system now but if I search the web budget builds are set for around 800USD right now. That’d be around 5600DKK or more than 5years of GeForce Now. Tbh I think it’s not a bad deal.

Besides, as a casual gamer I keep cancelling the service when I don’t need it. Right now I’m signed up because I enjoy starfield. I’ll probably unsubscribe when I’m done with that. Or at least over Christmas because I know I won’t have time to game.

Plus I love the flexibility of streaming to my TV, tablet, phone, laptop.

Two years of subscription buys a ps5 or a steamdeck, if one want the “easy” experience

Buy the hardware so you can offset the costs by pirating all the games
