in this video I'm gonna show you how to run the Google stadia speed test as well
as show you where to find the Google stadia requirements so you get a great
gaming experience so check it out hey everyone it's Ken here from Northern
Viking Everyday and if you are new to this channel we bring you videos on
reviews and how to's so make sure you click that subscribe button so you don't
miss out on any upcoming videos today we're gonna be showing you how to run
the Google stadia speed test so if you're buying a Google stadia you know
what kind of connection you were gonna get whether you can run 4k 1080p 720p or
you can't run your Google stadia at all we're also going to show you where you
can find the requirements so you get a great gaming experience we'll get into
that right here shortly if you are buying a Google stadia you're gonna want
to run these tests and as well use the computer or the device that you're gonna
be using your Google stadia with in the location to make sure you're getting the
perfect results and the connection you need so let's jump on over to my
computer and show you exactly how this is done
ok so we're over here on the Google stadia support page and this page as
well as the speed test will be linked below in the description so a couple
things I do want to point out for you if you are looking to buy a stadia the
first one is the minimum speed so 10 megabits per second is the minimum speed
that you need in order to use the stadia but if you want to do 4k gaming you need
35 megabits per second or greater so I would check that out and that's why
we're gonna run the speed test here in a moment so you're also going to be able
to look through what some of the hardware requirements are I'll leave
that for you to check out on your own but I do want to show you this now if
you have a capped internet connection you're only allowed a certain amount of
data per month this is something to take into account so 4k gaming you're gonna
be using about 20 gigabytes per hour so or it says up to 20 gigabytes per hour
1080p about twelve point six gigabytes per hour on the maximum side and 720p
4.5 gigabytes per hour so that's something to think of if you're capped
at 500 gigabytes per month something like that
could burn through your internet connection very quickly so I'll leave
this for you to go through there's all sorts of information on audio as well
but let's get right into the speed test that you run so that's on my other tab
here I'm just gonna open that up it'll look something like this and again it
talks about the Swedes you need for 720p gaming so let's go ahead and run this
and it talks about M lab so it's gonna be measuring your internet speed and it
could transfer up to about 40 megabytes is what it's saying so let's go ahead
and click on check now and it's gonna start running that speed test it can
take up to about 30 seconds depending on the speed of your internet so you can
see mine's about half done here and it's slowed right down and here we go
speeding up I am on a wireless connection here on the other end of the
house from our router so there we go it's just about done so I ended up
getting a forty one point one five seven megabits per second connection I just
ran this a few minutes ago and I was at about 65 now again I am at the totally
other end of the house from our router so if I go over there let's go do that
I'll turn this off and go run that again over on the other side so we can see
what I get alright so I'm back and I ran this right
next to the router but still on a wireless connection and I got two
hundred and twelve point one six seven megabits per second so if I want to do
4k and know it's gonna be constant I probably should do my setup right next
to the router because that's gonna be a great gaming experience there so again
make sure you run this test where you want to play the game in your home so
hope this video on the Google stadia speed test and its requirements did help
you out if it did make sure to give this video a thumbs up I'd go ahead and run
those tests before picking one up just to make sure you're getting the
connection you need also if you're interested in learning about god mode on
your Windows computer I've got a link to that video below it gives you access to
pretty much every setting in one folder you're gonna want to check that video
out also remember to connect with me on social media you'll find all those links
below thanks so much for watching and until
next time take care
