Thank you for your question!

We offer Windows (BYOL) images on our virtual machines. If you have a good latency to our servers and sufficient bandwidth to handle the streaming, you can enjoy cloud gaming using any software of your choice.

To get started, you can deploy a CPU-based Windows virtual machine for as low as $0.019/hr. Once you have installed your games, you can stop the virtual machine and modify it into a GPU-based VM for as low as $0.29/hr. While your server is running, you will be billed for all the components. However, if you shut down the server, you will only be billed for the storage and the IP address. Your data will remain safe as long as you don't delete the server, allowing you to start playing again whenever you want.

In the coming days, we will be implementing a feature that allows you to detach the IP address, resulting in more cost-effective billing, where you will only be billed for the storage.

I hope this information helps!

Neat - thanks! What I would find helpful is a calculator to estimate the total cost per day, including storage, ram, etc. It would be great if it allowed me to easily answers questions like this one.

Assuming that:

- I game 2 hours a day,

- I need 50 GB for Windows and another 200 GB for games,

- I need 16 GB of ram and an equivalent of RTX 4080,

what would my total cost per day would be?

We have plans to add a calculator in the coming days to make it easier for you to estimate costs. Currently, the console deploy page is the only place where you can see the hourly pricing.

As for finding a GPU equivalent to the RTX 4080, it's challenging as it is a new release and we don't have benchmarks for it yet. However, we can provide pricing estimates for the RTX 5000 and RTX 4000 GPUs.

For the RTX 4000, the approximate cost would be around $24, while for the RTX 5000, it would be around $45. Please keep in mind that these are estimates and the actual pricing may vary. Additionally, the optimization we are planning to implement for IP addresses in the near future will further improve the overall pricing.
