How to run Genshin Impact on low-end PCs and mobile devices: GeForce NOW guide

Playing Genshin Impact on a low-end PC or mobile device is quite easy, thanks to NVIDIA GeForce Now.

For those who don't know, NVIDIA GeForce NOW is a cloud-based gaming service where players can play video games their devices normally might not be able to handle.

However, this option has the drawback that the player must have good Internet. If you don't have consistent access to fast Internet, this method won't work for you.

Some Travelers have good Internet and a low-end PC or mobile device, so this guide should help them out.

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to get everything up and running on a low-end PC or mobile device:

1. Create an account with NVIDIA.
2. Pick any membership tier that interests you. (Free, $9.99 a month, and $19.99 a month are your options here).
3. Download NVIDIA GeForce NOW and install it.
4. Boot up that app and log in with your account details.
5. Search for "Genshin Impact."
6. Add it to your library.
7. Play the game. (There's a green button that says "Play." Click on that.)

It's that simple and should work for everybody with good Internet, including those on a low-end PC or mobile device.

Keep in mind that you are not actually downloading any video games through this service, so there shouldn't be an issue with storage space.

This whole service is streamed through your Internet, which is why the bulk of the previously listed requirements are related to your Internet speed.

Membership differences

The three tiers of membership for NVIDIA GeForce NOW are:

• Free
• Priority ($9.99 a month)
• Highest Performance ($19.99 a month)

Both paid membership options are cheaper if you purchase them as six-month deals. Here is what you get out of the free subscription:

• Standard Access to Gaming Servers, which includes a queue system
• 1-hour sessions

Priority members get:

• Premium Rig RTX ON
• Priority access to Premium Servers
• 6-hour sessions
• Up to 1080p resolution and 60 FPS

Highest Performance will give you:

• GeForce RTX 3080 RIG RTX ON
• Access to the RTX 3080 Servers
• 8-hour sessions
• Up to 4K resolution and 120 FPS

Genshin Impact players on low-end PCs and mobile devices can select any of these options.

If their Internet is amazing, then Highest Performance might interest them. Likewise, a mediocre Internet plan would likely warrant them to settle for the free subscription.
