TWITCH INTEGRATION: Never miss a live stream.The goal of both GX Control features is to enable you to always be able to keep your browser open, even if you're playing or streaming a resource-heavy game. CPU LIMITER: The CPU Limiter lets you put a cap on how much of your computer's processing the browser uses, so the rest can be reserved for gaming.The browser will not for any reason exceed the selected memory cap, even if browsing experience must be sacrificed. The Hard Limit setting forces the browser to stay under the chosen memory limit no matter what. For example, if it's able to keep a stream going or a cloud-based file active, it will let the memory usage go slightly over the set limit. The browser will try to stay at or below the selected memory allotment, but it will prioritize experience over the strict memory amount.

The default setting in the RAM Limiter aims to strike a balance between memory use and experience.

RAM LIMITER: GX Control's RAM limiter lets you choose how much memory Opera GX uses.

Opera GX will stick to that limit, which means your game or streaming service outside of the browser will run more smoothly with the larger network bandwidth at its disposal.

NETWORK LIMITER: The Network limiter allows you to set maximum limits (upload and download) on how much of your network’s bandwidth you would like to devote to your browser.

GX Control lets you set limits on how much RAM, CPU and network usage your browser takes up.

GX CONTROL: Need every ounce of power your machine can give you? No need to close your browser.

We are happy to now be bringing the unique GX experience to macOS users,” said Maciej Kocemba, product director of Opera GX. Ever since the launch of the Windows version during E3 in Los Angeles, we have been receiving many requests from gamers to add Mac support. “Opera GX’s set of features is unique and relevant to every person who is serious about games.

What this means in practice is that everyone’s machines are left with more resources for running games.

The set of browser limiters, which includes a Network Bandwidth Limiter, as well as CPU and RAM Limiters, prevents the browser from becoming resource-hungry. According to a survey they did, 49% of people run into technical issues, 30% of which are network problems, 26% are RAM issues and 14% are CPU related.īoth on Mac and Windows, Opera GX offers a unique set of features that provides solutions to these problems. The company says that almost half of gamers experience technical issues while playing games. Opera has announced the launch of 'Opera GX', the world's first gaming browser for Mac.
