| chakkra said: Yeah, the issue here is trying to force a 1440p resolution on it. It just doesn't make sense. To render a game at 1440p-60fps you would need exactly half the power than to render it at 4K-60fps, and we all know that Series S doesn't have half the power of SX. The math just doesn't add up. In fact, I am actually quite surprised that quite a few games are offering half the resolution with the same performance as the SX. |
Hardware tends to have a resolution "sweet spot". It's not a linear progression like you assume.
Twice the hardware power doesn't equate to twice the resolution, bottlenecks come into play like the number of geometry units or cache size/speed.
4k is also more than twice the resolution of 1440P, it's a 125% increase.

I think the Ram will be the biggest hindrance as time goes on.
Even the Xbox Series X and Playstation 5 will feel memory constrained in 5-7 years time, the Series S with just 10GB will feel extremely antiquated.
