How to set up a cloud gaming PC on SensePC

Gamer playing on a SensePC cloud gaming PC streamed to a laptop with neon cyberpunk lighting
  1. Choose your tier and closest region

    Select Xtreme Core, Pro, or Ultra and choose the available region closest to you. Distance and network routing can affect cloud gaming responsiveness. Your persistent SSD capacity and live price are shown before you build.

  2. Switch to Performance Mode

    Start the running PC in the browser viewer, then switch the active session to the native Amazon DCV viewer on your supported Windows or macOS computer. Performance still depends on your network, region, configuration, game, and settings.

  3. Sign in and install your games

    Steam and Epic Games Launcher are ready on Xtreme plans. Sign in with your own accounts and install games you own. Other Windows launchers may be installed where compatible. Every Xtreme tier uses an NVIDIA L4 GPU with 24 GB of GPU memory.

  4. Stop compute and return later

    Stop the PC when you are finished. Your installed games, launchers, files, and settings remain on persistent SSD storage. On the Hourly plan, compute billing stops while the PC is stopped, but SSD storage billing continues. Daily and Monthly plans follow their selected billing cycle.

SensePC lets you create a persistent Windows 11 cloud gaming PC and access it from a supported Windows or macOS computer. You can sign in to your own launcher accounts, install games you own, and return to the same saved environment later without buying a new local gaming PC upfront.

More details in FAQ

SensePC gives gamers a full Windows 11 cloud PC with Hourly, Daily, and Monthly access options. It is designed for users who want their own launchers, games, files, settings, and persistent storage rather than a fixed game catalog. Compare current pricing, regions, compatibility, and included usage before choosing any cloud PC provider.

More details in FAQ

Steam and Epic Games Launcher are ready on SensePC Xtreme plans. Sign in with your own accounts and install games you own. You may also install other Windows launchers where they are compatible with the selected configuration and cloud environment.

More details in FAQ

No. SensePC does not include or sell games and is not affiliated with game publishers or stores. You bring your own game accounts, licenses, and subscriptions and install the games you already own or can access.

More details in FAQ

Compatibility varies by title. Some games, publishers, launchers, DRM systems, or anti-cheat tools may restrict virtual or cloud environments. Check current compatibility information before depending on SensePC for a specific game.

More details in FAQ

A stable broadband connection with low latency is required. Wired Ethernet is recommended when available, and a strong 5 GHz or Wi-Fi 6 connection is preferable to a weak wireless signal. Choose the closest available SensePC region because distance and network routing can strongly affect responsiveness.

More details in FAQ

Performance Mode is the recommended gaming connection option. First launch your running SensePC in the browser viewer, then switch the active session to the native Amazon DCV viewer on your supported Windows or macOS computer. Results still depend on your location, network, configuration, game, and settings.

More details in FAQ

Cloud gaming is streamed over the internet, so it cannot be guaranteed to feel identical to local hardware. For the best available experience, choose the closest region, use a stable low-latency connection, switch to Performance Mode, and adjust the game and streaming settings for your network.

More details in FAQ

SenseXtreme Core, Pro, and Ultra are the current SensePC gaming configurations. Every tier uses NVIDIA L4 graphics, while the available CPU, memory, and storage resources increase by tier. Choose based on the requirements of your games and the other applications you plan to run.

More details in FAQ

SensePC Xtreme gaming configurations use an NVIDIA L4 GPU with 24 GB of GPU memory. The L4 is a data-center GPU designed for cloud graphics, video, and virtualized workloads. It is not marketed as a consumer GeForce RTX card, and game performance varies by title, configuration, region, network, and settings.

More details in FAQ

Supported upgrade and resize options depend on the PC state, billing plan, region, and current capacity. Review the available options in the SensePC dashboard before changing a configuration. Do not delete a PC when you need to preserve its local files.

More details in FAQ

Choose Hourly for occasional or flexible use, Daily for longer sessions during a single day, and Monthly when SensePC becomes a regular gaming PC. Review the live pricing and included usage shown for your selected tier and region before building.

More details in FAQ

Hourly access is designed for flexible use. Compute is billed while the PC is running. When an Hourly PC is stopped, compute billing stops, but persistent SSD storage billing continues while your games and files are retained.

More details in FAQ

Daily access is designed for users who need a longer block of included runtime without committing to a full month. Current included usage and pricing are displayed in the gaming plan selector before you build.

More details in FAQ

Monthly access is designed for frequent users who want a larger amount of included runtime. Current included usage, pricing, and renewal details are displayed in the gaming plan selector before you build.

More details in FAQ

You can start with Hourly and use Manage Plan from the PC details page to move to an available Daily or Monthly option. Upgrades can take effect immediately, while downgrades apply after the current billing cycle. When included Daily or Monthly runtime is exhausted, an eligible stopped PC can switch to Hourly if the wallet has enough available balance.

More details in FAQ

SensePC can reduce upfront hardware spending for gamers who play occasionally or need stronger hardware for a limited period. It is not always cheaper for every usage pattern. Frequent users should compare expected SensePC usage and storage costs with the total cost of owning, powering, maintaining, and upgrading a local gaming PC.

More details in FAQ

Your installed games, launchers, files, and settings remain on the attached persistent SSD when the PC is stopped. On the Hourly plan, compute billing stops but SSD storage billing continues. Daily and Monthly plans follow their selected billing cycle.

More details in FAQ

Stopping the PC or changing plans through supported Manage Plan options does not normally delete the attached persistent storage. Deleting the PC or account lifecycle actions can remove local files, so keep important files backed up in an appropriate storage service.

More details in FAQ

Available plan changes and configuration changes depend on your current billing plan, PC state, region, and capacity. Resize and volume-management options may be limited to Hourly PCs. Review the available dashboard actions before making a change.

More details in FAQ

Additional persistent SSD storage may be available depending on the current configuration and plan. Check the available volume options in the builder or PC details page before assuming a specific capacity is available.

More details in FAQ

SensePC supports scheduling and idle-management features where available. Use them carefully because a running PC can consume included runtime or wallet balance until it is stopped.

More details in FAQ

Idle timeout can stop a SensePC after inactivity and help reduce unnecessary compute usage. For an Hourly PC, compute billing stops after shutdown, while SSD storage billing continues because the disk remains allocated.

More details in FAQ

You can install supported Windows tools such as OBS for recording or streaming workflows. Results depend on the selected tier, game, encoder settings, platform requirements, region, and network connection.
