This is the best summary I could come up with:
The point of cloud gaming is it doesn’t require a powerful PC; a Chromebook should do just fine.
Today, Google and Nvidia are ready to prove it by giving away a free, no-strings-attached GeForce Now subscription to every modern Chromebook owner.
You don’t have to enter any credit card information, Google spokesperson Peter Du confirms to The Verge.
As long as you’ve got a Chromebook from 2017 or newer, you can simply head over to Google’s Chromebook Perks page and hit the “Get perk” button to redeem a three-month subscription to the Priority tier of Nvidia’s GeForce Now.
If you’ve purchased a gaming Chromebook, the deal’s even sweeter: you get three months of GeForce Now Ultimate, the higher tier of Nvidia’s platform that lets you stream at 1440p resolution and 120 frames per second.
Interestingly, this announcement comes just two weeks after Google quietly revealed that even more powerful gaming Chromebooks with dedicated Nvidia GPUs had been canceled.

Great news! I didn’t know GeForce Now was an option for Chromebooks.
