The CPU Limiter lets you put a cap on how much of your computer's processing the browser uses, so the rest can be reserved for gaming. The browser will not for any reason exceed the selected memory cap, even if browsing experience must be sacrificed. The Hard Limit setting forces the browser to stay under the chosen memory limit no matter what.

For example, if it's able to keep a stream going or a cloud-based file active, it will let the memory usage go slightly over the set limit. The browser will try to stay at or below the selected memory allotment, but it will prioritize experience over the strict memory amount. The default setting in the RAM Limiter aims to strike a balance between memory use and experience. GX Control's RAM limiter lets you choose how much memory Opera GX uses. The network limiter will also come in handy when the internet connection is slow or if you want to play a game without lag and download files in your browser at the same time. Opera GX will stick to that limit, which means your game or streaming service outside of the browser will run more smoothly with the larger network bandwidth at its disposal. The Network limiter allows you to set maximum limits (upload and download) on how much of your network’s bandwidth you would like to devote to your browser. Slash resource-hungry tabs one at a time to speed things up and reduce lag. See exactly how much of your CPU and RAM is being used by each of your tabs. GX Control lets you set limits on how much RAM, CPU and network usage your browser takes up.

Need every ounce of power your machine can give you? No need to close your browser. The browser includes unique features to help you get the most out of both gaming and browsing. Opera GX is a special version of the Opera browser built specifically to complement gaming.
