FAQ

What is Neo Boost?

Neo Boost is our solution to the eventual Shadow PC Boost upgrade. Eligible users can participate in our Neo Boost Early Access program to skip the wait and experience next-level gaming performance.

Is Neo Boost compatible with Windows 11?

Yes! Neo Boost not only introduces next-generation hardware—it also runs Windows 11, ensuring compatibility with the latest features and updates. This means Boost users will finally be able to upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11.

Who will receive the Neo Boost upgrade?

Neo Boost is the successor to Boost, and all Shadow PC Boost subscribers will be upgraded automatically as the transition rolls out.

When will Boost be upgraded to Neo Boost?
