NVIDIA was on fire yesterday, almost hitting an all-time high of $500 per share on the stock market. For the Ampere-based discrete video cards we'll have to wait until September 1st but in the meantime the company has a GeForce NOW announcement.

GeForce NOW is NVIDIA's cloud gaming service, this subscription-based service lets you run supported games (bought via third-party stores) on any supported device. The number of supported devices is climbing as NVIDIA just added beta support for Google's ChromeOS, meaning GeForce NOW is now compatible with Chromebooks:
With today’s beta launch on ChromeOS, Chromebooks now wield the power to play PC games using GeForce NOW.

Chromebook users join the millions on PC, Mac, SHIELD and Android mobile devices already playing their favorite games on our cloud gaming service with GeForce performance.

Getting started is simple. Head to play.geforcenow.com and log in with your GeForce NOW account. Signing up is easy, just choose either a paid Founders membership or a free account.

Right now is a great time to join. We just launched a six-month Founders membership that includes a Hyper Scape Season One Battle Pass token and exclusive Hyper Scape in-game content for $24.95. That’s a $64.94 value.

Once logged in, you’re only a couple clicks away from streaming a massive catalog of games. For the best experience, you’ll want to make those clicks with a USB mouse.
NVIDIA's GeForce NOW is compatible with services like Steam, Epic Games Store, Battle.net, and uPlay. There is also a free version of GeForce NOW but this variant is limited to one-hour sessions and does not support RTX.
