framerates/performance are better in general on PS4 than PS3; devs seems to use 60fps as a selling point now this gen even if their games barely reaches 60 max fps (sub 60 is far better than sub 30). you will notice low frames a lot less often this gen than last gen in my experience so the slim probably wont be bad at all framerate wise. however it is hard to recommend it over pro when pro comes with over double the GPU power and double the HDD space. Even without a 4k screen you supposedly get increased framerates and other visual upgrades. 500Gb is a struggle to work with, I would suggest 1Tb but then at that price now it is $350 for slim and $400 for pro.

Also it is hard to trust Sony and other publishers NOT to prioritize the pro version. If they do, what would happen to the og/slim versions? will frames/performance be worse than what these console owners are used to today? that may not happen but you don't want to put yourself in a position to find out. Pro is just a safer and better choice imo.
