Just curious if anyone has tried using the GeForce Now app and service with an M2 Pro mini, especially a 120hz monitor via HDMI 2.1. Want to know how this service is doing on the latest iteration of Apple chip, and their new HDMI 2.1 port. There are some reports GeForce Now is working great on M2 Macbooks, but not too many reports, and not much at all for the M2 mini.
For those who don’t know, GeForce Now recently released their new tier, “Ultimate,” which has 4k performance at 120hz and great latency. Reviews thus far have been stellar on the PC side, even for cheapo Windoze boxes, as well as Macs in general. One catch: you need a solid broadband connection with good latency, and an ethernet connection is strongly recommended. WiFi is much more hit-and-miss.
Considering a higher-end PC can cost north of $3k, and the flagship GPUs right now cost more than $1100+, the $20 per month for the service is reasonable and justifiable. Especially good if you are not a big gamer (I am not, hardly ever play games, am never buying or building a pc game rig), but once in a while would like to check out a title and flip on the service for a month or two.
