4K native and  solid 60 fps just to me...i enjoy for multiplats. PC exclusives of genre that cater to me are very uncertain staying that way. How many could you list? I have just 'Routine' shorlisted

Seems odd considering you have the faux 4k on the PS4P, surely the 30fps limit doesn't bother you as you play console exclusives and likely other titles on those systems that are locked to 30 or even play at 60fps. Some lower end titles playing at native 4k as well.

Really, Routine is the only one that comes to mind?.

 

I dunno, I just find the reasoning to be little and the price to be dumped for something so trivial. Like someone who spends millions on a souped up car, but only uses it 3 times a year compared to those who would dream of using it more often than 3 times.

Dude. I have stated my reason. I don't know what you want more out of it as you tend to belittle it. 4K native is not possible on PS4 Pro for most AAA multiplat titles. Secondly  games can't have 60 fps with similar visual fidelity and textures.

"Really, Routine is the only one that comes to mind?." Well, post your list then.

Its all of the above

Whoa whoa, slow down there. I'm not getting super cynical or anything in terms of acting "butthurt". I was just pointing out on how you state you own a very high end setup but choose to ignore all other positives and gains that PC has in favor of the usual res bump and general 60fps.

I don't need to post a list when there are games releasing every year. The list of games on PC is stupidly insane to list. Unless you want to go a step further and say PC has no good exclusives as some sort of fact?.

Porn

I second this, I mean 4k porn is another level.

60+ to me, playing BF1 and Rise of the Tomb Raider on consoles feels weird.

no it's 60+ fps.

Why only limit yourself to 60fps? You should try 120fps or 144fps or 180fps.
I literally spent half an hour just moving the mouse cursor around when I tried a 120hz panel.

TBH it won't be as fast as PS4 since it starts installing crucial parts of the game so you are already playing it in 2 minutes while it does the rest in background. If it's a digital download, you can even start playing before the download finishes.

If you mean downloads, then it's true. PSN at least is quite crappy with speeds when it gets just a bit of load from users.

So the PS4 is going to be faster than say... 16x SSD's in Raid? I think not.

Besides, playing before a download/game is installed is not platform specific, the PC can have it to, it's not tied to any specific hardware, it is completely up to the developer.

if you use SSD i asume 

Using a 15,000rpm Mechanical disk isn't exactly slow.

HollyGamer said:

And also i am not saying consoles is faster then PC or even match the speed of PC , i am saying PC dont have fast loading as well, it depend on how the configuration of the HDD, and yes even 7200 RPM is not that much diffrent from 5200 rpm, it's louder, hotter and consules more power for consoles. The diffrent is hard to tell.

*Chokes* Whaaa? There is a big difference between a 5400rpm and 7200rpm mechanical disk drive, especially with regards to random reads and writes.

Barkley said:

Right, it's just that this whole thread is basically about Comparing PC Gaming to Console Gaming, otherwise there isn't a base line and no way to so what is good and what is bad. :P

But yeah Steam Servers are insane, I get about 9 MBytes/s downloading games from there, only about 4 MBytes/s from PSN.

Internet providers around the world also host their own Steam servers, so ther really isn't a set limit.
Testing a line over in Adelaide I was able to do 100MB/s. It was LAN speed.

Terrible recourse handling on Windows 10 thanks to the flurry of background Apps. No seriously, with all the background apps running, the OS once spiked to gobble up 9GB's of RAM, crashing the game I was playing.
What the hell is Microsoft even thinking?

Then you are doing something wrong. Windows 10 is happily using 1.8Gb of Ram on my system.

Yes, I'm planning to get a 256 GB SSD for quite some time. The 1 TB units (I have 4 X 1 TB HDD) are expensive as hell.

SSD are starting to be really cheap now. The prices got cut in half in a year.

Especially drives using stacked TLC NAND. 1 Terabyte SSD's are now affordable.

Ruler said:

In my experience the PS4 is way faster overall than gaming on the PC, the OS is way faster than windows especially in the cold boot. Games run a lot faster unless you are using an SSD on the PC, and the PS4 Pro has even faster loading times. You can put the games into sleep mode and every one of them will be instantly in the status you left it if you turn on the console, you can install games and play them at the same time etc.

No.

1440p is starting to look like the middle ground and sweet spot for me. It's not as expensive as 4k and it offers that bit better resolution than 1080p. I'm also aiming for that new CPU/GPU combo to go with the res upgrade in order to keep the 60fps as much as possible (though I won't be afraid to turn down some settings if the need arises).

1440P is a great resolution if you wish to have great image quality and keep costs low. It's the new 1080P really.
I have had a 1440P panel for probably about a decade now, I don't think I could go back for gaming.
