Opera GX’s visuals aren’t quite as ridiculous as some other gamer software I’ve seen. Still, Opera GX is a little gaudy. I like my web browsers to be invisible and let the web page itself.
Opera GX is a special version of the well-know Opera browser that is specifically designed for gaming aficionados. In the addition to the security and anti-ad features specific to the browser, you also have numerous options and quick links that you are likely to use as a gamer.
From the start you are very likely to be impressed with the interface which is modern, futuristic and very immersive. Nevertheless, things don't just stop here, and you have the freedom to customize it further with dozens of themes and special effects. From Razer Chroma color palette to specially designed wallpapers, there is not limit to how you can personalize it.
Another noteworthy feature is the in-browser sound effects which make everything seem like you are part of an alien or in-game world. The sounds are composed by Rubén Rincón and the Berlinist band, whom are behind the Gris game original soundtrack.
In the eventuality that you have your current computer for a couple of years now, then there is a good chance that you usually close your browser when playing to grab every ounce of power your machine can give you. Thanks to RAM and CPU limiter, you no longer need to close your browser as you can set a maximum limit on how much of the resources it can take.
According to the developer, the RAM Limiter feature is set by default to balance the memory use and experience. This is why it is configured to prioritize experience, even though it stays at or bellow the memory allocated for it. The feature can work wonders if you are streaming according to the developer.
If you are using Opera, then you probably noticed that it comes with a quick access to Messenger so you can easily chat with your friends without opening another tab or grabbing your phone. In addition to Messenger, the tool enables you to chat with Telegram, Vkontakte, Whatsapp and Twitch. With Twitch one button away, you can easily view your channels and who of your friends are online.
Sometimes you want to observe the details of the gameplay or how a particular mechanic works so you can complete a dungeon or other challenge. You will be happy to learn that Opera GX allows video pop out from Twitch and YouTube, so you can preview it in a floating window that stays visible over tabs and other open apps
