Overview
Opera GX for Mac is a special version of the Opera browser built specifically to complement gaming. The browser includes unique features to help you get the most out of both gaming and browsing.
Features and Highlights
GX CONTROL
Need every ounce of power your machine can give you? No need to close your browser. GX Control lets you set limits on how much RAM and CPU usage your browser will take up.
RAM Limiter
GX Control's RAM limiter lets you choose how much memory Opera GX for macOS Browser uses. The default setting in the RAM Limiter aims to strike a balance between memory use and experience. The web browser will try to stay at or below the selected memory allotment, but it will prioritize experience over the strict memory amount.
CPU Limiter
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 goal of both GX Control features is to enable you to always be able to keep your browser open, even if you're playing or streaming a resource-heavy game.
