or atleast  (6/4.2) -1 = 42,8%

The PS4pro does have that "rapid path math" thingy, which if they code for, could speed up things abit.

Differnce between the two is probably less than 42%.

True but the Xone X also got more and faster Ram and a better CPU so the netto power difference is probably closer to 50 than 40 percent. Although 50 percent isn't mindblowing it's pretty much the same difference between PS4 and Xone S.

Memory amount is the biggest difference when going for RESOLUTION as the ps4 pro doesn't have enough VRAM for native 4k (any game I benchmark on PC with native 4k uses more then the total available ram on ps4 pro and the pro also needs to use the same ram pool for normal cpu data). The PS4 pro was build more towards the checkerboarding, the memory speed isn't just faster but the memory bus is also 50% faster, memory speed and bus size is very important for loading textures and other graphical assets, the raw GPU might be 40-50% faster but when used developers can make the difference in hardware much more obvious then when comparing ps4 to ps4 pro.
