Breaking Down The Internet Speeds Needed For Stadia Streaming
During the Google Stadia livestream today, Google vice president Phil Harrison broke down the numbers on how the Stadia will run based on your internet speeds. The stream revealed the recommended minimum speed, 10 megabits per second, is capable of streaming games at 720p with 60 frames per second. The middling range, with speeds around 20 megabits per second, can stream at 1080p at 60 fps. The best speed, sitting at 35 mbps, is capable of 4k streaming at 60 fps with full 5.1 surround sound.
This comes off the back of the reveal of Baldur's Gate 3. For more Stadia announcements, stay tuned to our live E3 2019 page.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
