You need 4x the power then what the PS4 can do to hit 4k and so far with the rumoured Neo Specs, its not 4x the power. I do expect Sony to tweak the final specs but if its not 6tf+ I highly doubt any stable 4k gameplay.

Ignoring variables we don't yet know, the Neo having 3x times the GPU power of a PS4 (so about 5.5tf) should be enough for it to compete with the Scorpio in the 4k space. They could just run the games at a slightly lower resolution, e.g. 2060p instead of 2160p. I doubt even a pixel whore like me would notice that much (though i'll have a check in a minute).

As it currently stands though, i don't expect either the Neo or Scorpio to be hitting 4k as a primary standard. At least not without the PS4/X1's current graphical standards taking a dip.

Developers balancing two(or four...) versions of the same game will be difficult. Do they devote extra man-power, time and money into beefing up the 4k version? Or do they compromise and the differences between the 4k version and standard version will be minute...
