It may become stable enough by the end of Q2 2020 or later most probably. Until everything settled down, we may have to wait for it.

Additionally, you can try minimizing the input lag of the GeForce NOW service by following the steps below:

  • Head over to the app data > local > nvidia > geforcenow > Cef > GeforceNowStreamer.json (Open it with notepad)
  • Now, Set nv-sdl-iohid-config to true and nv-sdl-hidpi to true > hit apply.
  • You will see an option named Direct mouse input. (keep it intact)
  • Finally, use the GeForce NOW games with a wired mouse to reduce the input lag. (don’t use Bluetooth)
