PS4 Pro Native 4K resolution running at 60 FPS with HDR support?

Re: PS4 Pro Native 4K resolution running at 60 FPS with HDR support?

I've looked over this thread pretty well I feel but still want to make sure I'm not missing anything. As a Samsung KS8000 owner, I already get amazing results with HDR on a regular PS4. There hasn't been any official confirmation that the Pro is going to have any added benefit for this game yet, right? I mean I know there's good reason to assume as much but since three of my friends have all had Pros crap out on them due to heating issues, I'm feeling pretty good about sticking with what I have since HDR is already supported.

Yeah. If HDR is supported for 1080p and works with The Show I'll be happy. My TV is a Samsung from 2011 but it has only ever been used for gaming.

I'm really not ready to buy a Pro and a new TV when I don't really need to.

Wow! That seems like some really bad luck! Were they gaming inside a sauna or something?

I said this before the Pro even came out. The Pro is not for everyone. If you don't really feel compelled or justified to make the purchase then no bother trying to convince yourself otherwise. What the Pro offers is really cool to some people, and marginal/meaningless/not worth it to others. The PS4 is an awesome machine, you'll be fine whatever version you game on.

I'd be shocked if there wasn't some form of Pro support. Pretty sure every new game the last couple months has launched with some sort of Pro config. Some more elaborate than others. It may be a nice resolution boost, and/or better frame rate, or it may just be some improved textures filtering or better shadows. Who knows, guess we will find out soon right?

Bottom line is The Show will always be The Show no matter what you're gaming on, and The Show is awesome.

I think the pro is going to really shine when the new games come out. They can fully utilize the hardware. We already have games coming out this year, and I'm sure there is more to come. I will have to say, I love my regular ps4.

I'm hoping the Pro version will have Super sampling (I think that's what it is called) for the people who just have 1080p tvs.

im basically gonna redo the entire living room for this game so would u guys rather give up the inches and do a 55 inch with a clear action 960 or a 70 inch and clear action 180?

Most Pro Mode games do. I hope The Show does as well. Love the smooth, crisp image quality provided with downsampling.

That's easily the craziest thing I've read someone write about the Pro and it isn't even close.

For me, I have a Pro and I only know a handful of people who've also bought one, and a few OSers as well. I've yet to read or hear about that happening to anyone let alone 3 people.

It definitely had to be in a sauna or outdoors in the desert or something.

I feel like I remember seeing lots of reports of overheating on the launch units and my friends did all get them at that time, so clearly bad luck was involved. A quick Google search brings up a ton of articles about it even though a lot of them are regarding a notoriously fake story about one melting. Regardless, it's not completely unheard of.

Here's my thoughts.

Regarding size, I would generally use this chart found on the awesome site Rtings:

http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/by-size/size-to-distance-relationship

I find that size to distance ratio is more important than the algorithm a TV set uses to fake out motion clarity in games or for TV/Movies. Often, this motion clarity beyond 120 introduces undesirable motion effects. One such is the "Soap Opera" effect where things seems to move a bit too fast as the frame buffer data stores up information before displaying it to fill in games in motion. It can be disturbing looking in my opinion.

I would always go with size and picture quality over anything else.

The www.rtings.com site will also help in choosing the right set for you.

They have reviews with more details than one would need, but among the offerings, they have best value for TV under ___ $

http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/by-price/under-2000/best

for example.

They include details like how the set performs for various categories including games, HDR performance in TV/Movies and for Games, Latency, Lag..etc.

You clearly know your stuff! I've been impressed with your post. Got my TV a little over a year ago and paired up with my Pro...it has been nothing short of amazing. I'm excited to see what the Show does for us this year and how it looks.

Gotta say the PS4 Pro gameplay is silky smooth with Boost Mode enabled!

I've only read about half of this thread, and may have missed something. How do you know this? Do you have a copy?


Do you ever see framerate drops (gameplay or cutscenes)?

Boost mode is a feature that was just released for ps4 pro. It allows unpatched games with unlocked and uncapped frame rates to run better.

My experience is that general gameplay is smoother but there is still judder and crowd shots see familiar frame rate dips, but not as much. I would not described it as silky smooth.

I'm gonna go ahead and close this thread since there is a newer thread confirming all this.

Here's the thread to post about this now. http://www.operationsports.com/forum...r-ps4-pro.html
