Looking to buy my first ‘gaming’ PC in a long time and hoping to dual boot windows for work and SteamOS for gaming.

Will these specs be ok? I’ll update to 32Gb RAM when funds allow.

* CPU: AMD Ryzen 9600X;
* Cooler: ThermalRight Liquid Cooler;
* Motherboard: ASUS TUF B650 WIFI;
* GPU: XX RX 9060 16GB;
* RAM: Kingston 16GB x1 DDR5 6000Mhz;
* SSD: 512GB NVME PCIE;
* PSU: SilverStone 750W 80 Plus Bronze Power Supply;
* Case: Formula V Line Crystal Z6 ARGB

I just noticed a new drop down button next to the ‘Play’ button for my locally installed games.

When I go to launch say Forza Horizon 6, I now have the option to “Stream from GEFORCE-NOW”.

If I choose that the play button changes to say install. But clicking it doesn’t cause anything to happen or download?

Perhaps it’s supposed to download a plugin to allow direct streaming?

I’m on stable channel running 3.8.11

Just wondering what setting it uses? Is it what was last set in game mode before exiting?

Doesn’t seem to be max and I can’t see how to control it in desktop mode.

Bought a couple of licences for me and my son to play.

Was hoping he’d be able to use GfN to play however it doesn’t show?

Seems strange as I can see people talking about playing on GFN as of a couple of months ago? Has something changed?

I assume it’s the lack of cloud saves?
