Cloud gaming is getting more popular, and we're not strangers in how they work, but have you actually thought about what the hardware looks like when you play games or whatever on them? We convinced Shadow to send us one of their units, and they actually agreed to it... I hope they knew what they were agreeing to.

I mean, also the latency issue is realistically not going to go away. Encoding, decoding, error correction, data transfer and routing just take time. If your goal is to play anything that requires fast reactions you'll never be able to use this sort of service unless we come up with a completely different way of transmitting information which I wouldn't bank on.

Linus: “What’s a Gaming server?” *cuts to quadros”
NVidia required Shadow to buy quadros. They used to have GTX 1080 cards on the server when they first began.
@@AR7271 Why is that? Isn't Nvidia usually extremely cocky about gaming on their workstation products?
@@jayhill2193 Because you are not allowed to use regular GPUs in server rigs
Quadros allow an admin to virtualize multiple sessions in a single GPU. So if they're beefy enough, you can have multiple gaming sessions per GPU
@@TheRossMadness This is far from what Shadow advertises, they give everyone a dedicated GPU, yes you can run multiple sessions on them but since as I said everyone got their own this is irrelevant to the service. (I used shadow for about half a year myself, before I bought my new PC) It simply is nvidia forcing them to use server hardware because yes you guessed it their service is basically renting out remote server access.
I know you already did the review and was curious of what hardware they were using and this was a very nice video. To reduce input latency you need to sacrifice the eye candy settings like anti-aliasing and reduce shadow to medium on high paced game like doom eternal. Trust me latency is gone after that, you can't notice you're playing on a cloud gaming machine.
Really impressive engineering here. Fantastic insight into the future! While I personally would never want local processing to become obsolete I do fear that's where we're headed a couple decades from now.
When Linus said "It doesn't even look like a gaming PC" I was thinking, yeah wheres the RGB, then, of course, he said "Where's the RGB"
We didn't know whether to paint it red, blue, or green. 🤔

Would love to have "barebones" cases like that myself with the power daughter board :)
No matter if its the "12V only" from the open project ir from intel, it would make using "old" server hardware in the Future sooo much easier (try getting old oem server psu for more special boards, sometimes th3 psu costs 4x the price of the mainboard...) I appreciate the idea, and I love to see this in the future
Wireless, 5G RGB is the tech innovation we've all been waiting for.
Why so underrated ?
I love how just one of those graphics cards is easily double the price of my whole setup
Innit
Bruh one quadro card is more expensive than my setup, dont even get me started on the other 3 cards cpu and the other shit
not just the graphics card even the cpu is more expensive than whole system
@@sulaiman9766 well linus said that they can use different cpus but since my pc is 1000usd (including peripherals) youre probably right
I mean the card runs 24/7 so they could potentially have 10 people paying monthly to use that one card at different times. It's a crazy business model
7:45, ay so the cloud server has cloud storage, imagine the latency that would have caused even five years ago, that's incredible.

Has been entirely possible for a few years, i used to have an i7-4770T with 16gb ram and nvidia 730 low-profile in the trunk of my car. The low-tier gpu mainly to stay on a reasonable power consumption level for a system never intended to go beyond HD movie playback and snes/psx emulation :) besides that it was totally overkill for the purpose :p (120gb ssd boot-drive, 4tb archival harddisk for main media) but it would run fine on a mini 160w "picopsu" which you'd basically stick right into your mobo's 24-pin slot. I used it as my car's main media center back then, along with a 10.4" 1024x600 touchscreen lcd :) simply hooked it up to the radio through RCA.
I have a buddy that got into PC gaming via Shadow and he swears by it. Definitely cool tech.

The rule is simple, if you want to use any input from any source, that source must output the output as a standard key used for input by a game. If you ue a joystick, convert the output of the joystick (digital) as a key, like forward,backward,side left, side right, as a key press (and hold) on a keyboard. That way all you need to provide is such conversion on a client. For analog stuff, use a base analog support for any device attached to any client, and convert to the standard input of the server. That way, the client does the conversion to server standard and the server only has to inpret said standard. It will then become simple to configure each controller, by the client, while no matter the configuration client side, the server will always receive the same standard.

Love shadow. Cool to see how it works!
I've been using Shadow for several months now from Canada and have been really impressed. Multiple friends signed up after they tried it. It's similar to youtube style compression in that when you have a ton of fast moving artifacts on screen it compresses then sharpens like Linus said. I've had a great experience using Shadow on my Nvidia Shield on my 4k tv. Did full play-throughs of Fallen Order, Control, NFS Heat, A Way Out, Snowrunner, (most of) Death Stranding, Watch Dogs 2, Detroit Become Human, and Battlefront 2... and all played really really well. Also is really playable for something like Warzone. Huge benefit that most people seem to forget is that they have clients for OSX as well as Windows. Meaning everyone I know who use daily drives a Macbook Pro (which has an excellent display) gets an awesome experience and doesnt have to invest in Windows hardware to have a great gaming exp. You also have an iOS and Android app which is overall a mediocre experience for most games due to the wifi latency, it's still very playable for most, if not all, puzzle games.
how did you get past the zip code ?
I've actually tried this. It's pretty damn good. GREAT for remote gaming. everything on ultra settings for a monthly price. Way better than Stadia or any other streaming game platform.
What was the latency like?
dnbmania Honestly, I was on a wired connection. Didnt really try on WIFI. But I can say, it was minimal. Not enough to complain. But definitely low enough to have a solid gaming session. Surfing the internet was .. watching youtube .. using USB peripherals w the pass through .. it was pretty cool.
This destroys stadia for sure
"Way better", still required to pay a monthly fee, while Stadia is free.
@@xyo2434 And you can definitely feel how free Stadia is
I LOVE SHADOW. I'm moving into a fiber internet area next week, and I can't wait to stream again.
I only got activated on shadow last week, been playing forza arma 3 and cities skylines and they all run great
since i'm not American, and, hence, cannot use shadow, i've been on Geforce now and sincerely, it's been very good so far
@@polytelus ge force now is great especially the free games
Unofficial VR support actually works quite well if you're streaming to an Oculus Quest using VIrtual Desktop. I've tried it using the lowest tier plan, in an area not close enough to a Shadow data center to be fully supported and it worked acceptably some of the time. Other Quest users in fully supported regions report it working quite well. I can't wait for my area to get a near enough data center and for the official support of VR capability. Being able to use PC-quality VR experiences in a portable, wireless VR headset with full 6doF is just amazing.
I would totally attach that thing under my desk because it’s so thin and I would liquid cool it so it’s silent. Each video card would get it own monitor. I would set up BRM‘s so I could do four player command and conquer with a Tiberian sun fire storm upgrade. I would play all four at once. I wonder how many times I could jog the keyboard and mouse around before it craps.
9:24 “oh yeah!” While he scores in his own goal

Idea for a future video. Build a flat PC, like the server you're showing in this video, stick a TV screen in front of it, and mount the whole thing on the wall. Bonus points if the TV can swing open to expose the PC like a medicine cabinet.
Damn those seem like fair prices, I might actually consider!
