Nvidia is updating its GeForce Now game streaming service to support 1440p resolution at 120 fps in a Chrome or Edge browser. GeForce Now members in the RTX 3080 tier of the service will be able to access the new browser gaming options today by selecting 1440p on the GeForce Now web version.
Nvidia originally launched its member-level RTX 3080 GeForce Now last year, offering resolution streams up to 1440p at 120fps on PC and Mac or 4K HDR at 60fps on Nvidia’s Shield TV. Previously, you had to download the dedicated apps for Mac or Windows to access 1440p resolution and 120fps support, as the web version was limited to 1080p at 60fps.

The RTX 3080 tier remains one of the best gaming services available thanks to a huge improvement in latency, support for ray tracing and the option of 120 fps. Extending these latency, performance, and resolution improvements to Chrome and Edge makes GeForce Now even more accessible, especially on older devices, Chromebooks, and even Xbox consoles that can access the service through the Edge browser.
Nvidia’s top-tier RTX 3080 is available for $19.99 per month, or a cheaper six-month subscription for $99.99 (that’s around $16.66 per month). Nvidia is releasing this updated web version this week along with six additions to GeForce Now. Thymesia, Century: Age of Ashes, Clanfolk, Coromon, Hypercharge: Unboxed and Phoenix Point are already among the more than 1,300 titles available on GeForce Now.
