The RAM Limiter features a hard limit option that prevents Opera GX from ever exceeding the selected RAM limit. The built-in CPU Limiter works pretty much in the same way: enable it in the interface and set one of the available limits. The current version supports limiting CPU usage of the browser to 25%, 50%, or 75%. Opera Software believes that 'games can run more smoothly' when using GX Control. Opera GX integrates with Twitch accounts. Twitch users may sign-in to their accounts to get Twitch notifications directly in the Opera GX web browser. The browser features several game-inspired themes, sounds, and color schemes that users may enable. Opera GX is a modified version of Opera with a RAM and CPU limiter, Twitch integration, and a selection of customization options catered towards gamers. While I applaud Opera for trying something new, I'm not sold on the idea that the browser will offer better performance than, say, the desktop Opera browser. If Opera Software tweaked certain parameters and settings, that would be something different but limiting RAM and CPU usage of the program that you use to play games seems kinda strange. I'd imagine that limiting other processes on the system would yield a better effect.

Opera GX is available as a preview version only things may change and Opera Software could very well work on adding more features and enhancements to the browser before final release.Īs of right now, it could appeal to gamers because of the themes and feeds that it provides.
