How PS4Neo And PS4 Will Co-Exist

This article makes me wonder if older PS4 games will run natively better on PS4K or if a patch is necessary. The latter would suck.

It could defeniatley run a little better if the game dropped below 30fps for example,  because the GPU and CPU have a higher clock speed.

I wonder if the clock speed is set to ps4 specs if the game runs in ps4 mode, the same as on N3DS.
Letting an optimized console game run with different clock speeds for CPU and GPU requires more testing and can have unexpected side effects. A lot depends on timing, you can't suddenly have some tasks finishing faster than others. Suggesting that it needs a patch seems to confirm that.
(And you can hack the n3ds to unlock the faster cpu speed for older games at your own risk)

Looking through the comments on Eurogamer, NEO has already accomplished 1 thing, succesfully split the usebase.
