4k Gaming PC in the cloud / 30 € per month flat / GTX1080 / 12 GB RAM / 1 GB/s download / 256 GB HDD / Windows 10 Home 64 Bit
What does work:
- Extrem fast downloads (e.g 50 MB/s from Windows Store)
- With a internet connection of 15 MBit/s it is possible to play games like Forza Horizon 4 in 4k Ultimate details with no noticeable lag
- Burning/Ripping to/from a local optical disc drive via “USB over IP” (https://www.spice-space.org/download.html UsbDK)
- Mapping of USB Sticks/SD cards from local PC to cloud PC (even with Bitlocker enabled)
- Playing a 4k High Bitrate Video in Nero QuickViewer (w/o HWA) and in NMH (with and without HWA)
- Exporting files in Nero Video/Recode with NVIDIA HWA
- Installing the latest Windows Insider Preview
- Switching to Windows 10 Pro with own serial number
- Encrypting user folder with Encrypted File System (on Windows 10 Pro)
- NEW: Now is is possible to reset the machine to a clean PC (takes 20 minutes), no manual configuartion work needed
What doesn’t work:
- Nesting: Running a virtual machine (as this is already a virtual machine)
- Drive encryption for boot drive C: with BitLocker (as no keyboard controls available to enter the password during boot-up)
- Mapping MPT USB devices (e.g. iPhone)
