Don’t pay for this shit. It’s another case of “you’ll own nothing and stop fucking complaining, peasant.”

4.6 trillion dollar company btw.
Just save what you would spend on subscribing to tbis dumb shit for a few months and build your own machine so you don't have to throw money away on a subscription service.
In a few months there won’t be any affordable equipment.
There is the Steamdeck OLED still, Steam Machine and Steamframes on the way early 2026. Also there is enough used machines in the second hand marketplace to tide everyone else over until the AI bubble pops.
I don’t think it will pop. I think it will continue to gobble up components for the next 5 years.
for a few months
I'd love to see what kind of gaming PC you're going to build with $30.
Next up is rentable GPUs with a subscription. You'll eventually own nothing
100h is fucking nothing. Such a waste of money
I don't know if you're joking or not. That's 3h 20 min per day spent on gaming lol
What a sober reminder that most people on these platforms are either 20 years old or don't have kids, jobs and responsibilities, lol.
Regardless, fuck this enshittified subscription bullshit.
I know a lot of people who would consider 3 hours of gaming a day to be plenty, and I know a lot of people who buy Nvidia products. They are not the same people.
what are people even paying for, 100h per month isn't that much if you have a fair amount of free time or would pause the games between doing other things. i'm expecting for posts about someone accidentally leaving it open and not being able to play for the rest of the month.
Its 3h per day. Enough for moderate user, but if you share with a family or just a hardcore gamer, you'll run out
First they came for your music. Then they came for your movies. They came for your Games. Now they want your computers.
And now the other shoe drops. We can see what kind of future these companies are shaping for us. Where you have to pay them a subscription fee in order to use premium hardware. While they slowly stop selling it to the public.
I wish I could hit 100 hours of playtime a month.
Still cheaper than buying a gaming PC by far.
Got kids?
And a spouse who wants together time. Also other hobbies than gaming.
The only thing I consistently do over a 100 hours a month is sleep 😅
I hit 112 hours in Black Ops 7 in two weeks.
Genuinely eat shit, Nvidia.
If that’s the game you choose to dump your time into, maybe you should be given a limit…^/s^
Remember, you're borrowing their hours from AI data centers, and AI takes precedence. Don't use this service
From what I understand about this subscription (I never looked into it before) it's basically like a reverse Game Pass? So you pay the monthly subscription, and you can play the games that are on the service, on different devices aside from just a PC?
While that does sound pretty cool and impressive, I can't imagine most people, or most anyone that calls themselves a gamer would touch this service with a 20' pole. Like at that point, just own the game and system you want. You can play whenever and for however long you want.
Also, this may sound weird, but after reading the article I have a strong urge to start a game and just let it run idle, racking up playtime. Out of spite for Nvidia I guess.
That's. 3.33 hours/day. That's a whole lot of playtime...
For now...
"It's twice the price now, or the same price for 55h"
Yeah I do this because I don't want to spend $$$ upgrading my rig and I don't have as much free time to justify hardware costs.
The paid plans start at $10/month. So $10/month to have hardware capabilities to play new games isnt bad. And if you want to divide it by hours additionally its $0.10/hour...
you really don't want to piss off your paying customers who have more than a hundred hours of free time a month to trash you online lol
I wonder where they got 100hr?
I wonder if there's some metric they're going off of where the majority of the subscriber base only plays less than 100hrs and the "abusers" or whales play over the 100hr mark.
100hr / 30 days is 3.3 hours a day. Which as a father of two... I'd be lucky to get that much in a day.
100hr / 20 days(5 days a week) is 5 hours a day.
100hr / 8 days (weekends only gaming) is 12.5 hours a day.
None of these are outrageous and probably are the "average" user of the service.
Now if you're doing 8 or 12 hours a day for 30 days, that's 240-360 hours a month. Which is pretty much gaming full time.
I think 100 hours is a weird number to land on. I think 120 hours makes more sense (4 hours a day over 30 days).
I do expect Nvidia to lower the hours over time. Expect to see 80 hours or 50 hours soon IMO.
Use Boosteroid instead.
Fuck NVIDIA.
