Hello, I hope this message finds you well. I’m trying to find solutions that fit my situation better now that life has changed. Previously, I spent a lot of time gaming on PCs, but after starting a family, I switched to the Nintendo Switch. Recently, I upgraded to a PC and was eager to try XCloud on it. However, I realized it might not work as expected. I’ve cleaned up my PC, connected it to my TV, and bought a wired controller that’s certified for Xbox and Windows 10 from Power A. While I know keyboards and mice are ideal for gaming, I wanted to give Microsoft’s XCloud a shot before signing up. Before doing so, I checked if it would fit comfortably on my system and whether my internet connection would be sufficient. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks! Chalkie

It needs minimal resources because it's primarily streaming video. It's similar to using Netflix, but instead of regular content, you're watching a game and data flows between the controller and the server. Just experiment to find out.

I believe the internet connection is sufficient for 1080p gaming. If your home has other devices constantly consuming bandwidth, you might encounter problems.
