That is too low for next gen. Fury X is 8.6TFLOPS card (that's just ~4.5x PS4), in GCN FLOPS (nVidia performs about the same with much less 'Maxwell' FLOPS), that manages barely above 30fps in 4K in most demanding games - I don't think anyone would be happy to see games looking the same as now, just in 4K.

Most likely scenario for 2019 is some 15TFLOPS, but even that is hardly enough for native 4K, once 1080p to 4K resolution penalty is taken into account and necessity to amaze audience with 'moah graphix' compared to 8th gen.

I mean, they could go with native 4K even with that, but forums will be burning with 'diminishing returns' threads.

My bet for around 15TFLOPS is mostly 1920x2160 to 2560x2160 resolutions.

15tflops is too little for 4K? really? r9 295x2 has 11.5 tflops. (dual gpu) and the r9 295x2 tears 4k. Easily enough for 4k 30fps and 40k 60fps with PC optimisation, let alone console optimisation. 15tflops would be easily enough to handle 4k.

With 8th generation graphics. Do you expect there to not be a chance in resource and asset quality in the 9th generaton?

Yes so we know 11.5tflops is more than enough to run 4K 30fps. the extra 3.5 tflops (2x ps4 power) will be enough to make it super pretty. Games like the Order and Uncharted 4 are made with 1.84 tflops. at 1080p.

I doubt it. The next generation is going to take advantage of a lot of what we see in this. 

^ 4x GTX Titan X (26 Tflops; albeit sli'd; also note Nvidia > AMD /flop) 

Considering that 4k is four times the number of pixels as 1080p, I just can't see there being a noticeable improvement in the quality of games by only 7.5 x the raw floating points.
