@Bolded: I've alredy read that several times but I wouldn't be so sure about it.

Remember that we are talking about consoles here, which connect to TVs that will be either FullHD or 4K, not inbetween. With that in mind, why would developers target a resolution of 1440p and upscale that to 4K when it makes more sense to target FullHD resolution and have a perfect scale of 4x to 4K?

you have a point. I am just generally talking though. But the point I am really trying to make is that i feel the way consoles accomplish 4k will be from hardware upscaling. The PS4 has about 1100 GPU shader cores. I can just see the PS5 having no more than 4000 to 5000 shader cores but games being internally locked down to 1080p@60fps then upscaled to 4k for those that have the tvs to support it.

I hope I am wrong though.

Shaders aren't everything. Just looks at Nvidia's 980/970 cards, both chips have less of... well, basically almost everything but ROPs, and yet they outperform the 780Ti/780 respectively.

As for what will happen with the next consoles, time will tell, I guess.
