Opera has finally launched its gaming web-browser, the Opera GX for Mac in early access mode. The browser according to the company solves the resource problems by adding limiters on CPU, RAM and network bandwidth. Which, in turn, leaves more resources for running games.

To keep the browser from hogging machine resources, the Opera GX, via its GX control panel, lets the users set how much CPU power or RAM it can use. When the limits have been set, the browser will ensure that it does not tax your machine resources and thus helps you in having the best gaming experience.

To make the browser more skewed towards gamers, the company has also added Twitch integration directly into the sidebar along with shortcuts for Discord, Reddit and other sites. There are shortcuts to Telegram, WhatsApp and Facebook to ensure, the browser can be used by non-gamers also.
