ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) today announced a collaboration with Opera for the Opera GX ROG Edition, a browser designed specially for gamers seeking a unique internet experience. Opera GX offers endless customization options with GX Mods, and seamlessly integrates with platforms such as Discord and Twitch. The browser also offers CPU, RAM, and network limiters. The Opera GX ROG Edition boasts game-changing features that include ASUS Aura Sync integration, themed backgrounds, and exclusive content - making it the ideal browser for any ROG gaming setup.

ROG laptops, desktops, monitors, and other offerings have a cohesive aesthetic right out of the box, and now users can extend that look with the Opera GX ROG Edition browser. It offers ROG wallpapers, background music and sound clips as well as features such as the ROG Electro Punk game. To further create a consistent theme, Aura Sync integration allows users to create custom light effects and animations that respond in real-time to browser content. Light effects can even be used to alert users to new messages, to signal when a file download is complete, or to indicate when a tab is opened.



The browser will also alert users to ROG events via the convenient Opera GX Corner. One click lets gamers know about upcoming events, learn more about new ROG product launches and innovative gaming hardware, as well as connect with ROG staff and other gamers.

Gaming-changing features
The Opera GX ROG Edition browser includes access to all the tools and features that made the original Opera GX such a compelling pick for gamers. For gamers who want to ensure their browser isn't draining resources needed for gaming, Opera GX ROG Edition includes CPU, RAM, and network bandwidth limiters. When activated, it makes the browser less resource-hungry, leaving more for gaming. The Hot Tabs Killer feature lets users close the most resource-draining tabs, while the GX Cleaner helps get rid of old unwanted files.

Download Opera GX ROG Edition
The Opera GX ROG Edition offers a unique browser experience for ROG fans. It's packed with features that simplifies the gaming experience and offers versatile personalization options, making it perfect for any gaming setup founded on ROG hardware. The Opera GX ROG Edition is available for download here.

Already with recent update Opera removed adblocker for youtube and now with them joining hands with RoGarbage will it start pushing Shitsus malware automatically to users?

Isn't that just a general chromium thing rather than Opera?

Not sure why with Opera One that adblocker has been crippled(even on other sites inbuilt adblocker isnt working but adblocker is still working with Brave(not sure what version of chromiun it is running, Opera One is currently running 115.0.5790.171).

Opera was involved with shady money lending schemes, so yeah not sure if any other browser has gone to this level.

I stop using it last month after 15 years. It's not just the youtube ads coming back, it's the insane cpu usage (I have an i9, not system specs).

I moved to Brave and couldn't be happier.

Yea shady af.
They do have one neat feature I read about recently, if your account gets flagged that you've died - they'll nuke your browser history and replace it with generated nice things (lol) instead of the denegerate shit you've been watching on pronhub and onlyflans
