Hey guys, quick question.
Next generation I will move my consoles over to my pc setup. I usually run 1440p screens as I'm not in the market for high end graphic cards to run 4k/60fps and, to me, 1440p looks about as sharp as 4k given the average distance to the screen when gaming.
This also seems like the perfect excuse to invest into a 120hz HDR 1440p screen as I have never actually seen HDR in action.
Now in discussion with a friend a question came up: Do next gen consoles render everything in 4k and then downscale to whatever display is plugged in or would running a 1440p screen actually let me see performance improvements due to the smaller pixel count? How do XBox One X / PS4 Pro handle this?
(Also feel free to recommend a good display I should look into)
