Parsec als Linux-Alternative zu NVIDIA GeForce NOW
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Parsec can be a good replacement for NVIDIA GeForce NOW if you own a Windows or macOS gaming machine and want to stream games to your Linux device. It delivers low-latency, high-quality game streaming with strong controller and resolution support. However, it doesn't provide cloud-hosted games — you need your own remote PC. This makes it ideal for self-hosted streaming, but not a solution for accessing a cloud game library like GeForce NOW offers.

Ihre NVIDIA GeForce NOW-Dateien öffnen
Parsec does not interact with GeForce NOW files or configurations. Since GeForce NOW doesn’t store game files locally or export them, there’s no file migration path. Game progress is typically tied to account logins (like Steam or Epic), which both services can access independently. Parsec runs games installed on your host PC, so you must own and install them there. No conversion or import of GeForce NOW settings is possible or needed.

Do I need a subscription to use Parsec?
Parsec offers a free tier with solid features for personal use; paid plans add higher resolution and remote access for work or broadcasting.
Can I use my existing game controllers with Parsec on Linux?
