Opera GX has an updated design and features. The user can change the appearance of the browser and limit the use of processor and memory on the computer.
GX Control is a new feature that allows you to control the processor and RAM usage of the browser. The GX Control panel will help users determine how much CPU or RAM they allow the browser to use. In fact, the control goes to the user himself. The good news is that Opera GX does not break user-defined boundaries as other browsers do.
As you know, many games require serious resources from technology. In the past, gamers had to close their browsers so that their work did not affect the process of the game, but now there is no need for this. With Opera GX, it's possible to play in peace without limiting the browser's performance, said Maciej Kocemba, the creator of Opera GX.
On the side, in the browser panel, there is a link to sign in to your Twitch account. Here, the user can receive notifications about the broadcasts of the streamers to which he is subscribed. The start page of the browser has shortcut links to Discord, YouTube and Reddit.
The video the user is watching can be detached from the site where it is located and viewed on another page.
