Sleeping Dogs max settings includes 2x2 super sampling... Why would you use that if you are running at 4k resolutions?

And Metro 2033 has a massive hit with MSAA on a deferred pipeline at 1080p at 4k I imagine the hit would be even bigger. Not to mention the crazy hit the DX11 DoF effect has.

True, but to give a global perspective the games had to be tested with the same settings (and it was probably easier and faster to set everything to max and call it a day).

 

@Sirius87: I didn't say that they would keep the framerate, I only talked about the resolution. And for now most of the "affordable" (less than $2000) 4K monitors/TVs are 30Hz.

Besides, do you really thing that games will be at 60fps during the whole gen?

But then you're conclusion would still be false. You don't need 4 titans for 60 fps average with 4k if you disable AA.
