Say a PS4 pro game has a 4k 60fps mode, can I still run it at 1080p ?

LMAO

it does though
just set the output to 1080p in settings

at least it has games

That's just the output, you're not actually changing anything about the rendering.

Correction: game

It's f2p on PC. It's time to let it go, user.

Not OP but I wonder... does the PS4 still render at 4K when you do that, and it downsamples that 4K picture to 1080? Probably not.

If it doesn't, then does anyone know if there is some device/box you can connect a 4K input signal to and downsample to 1080? Just to get a smoother, less aliased picture, than one would get rendering natively at 1080.

what are you saying
the games themselves are adaptive in that they'll run at the system resolution
otherwise you couldn't play ps4 pro on a 720p tv

So it actually downsamples? I find that a bit hard to believe, but it would be cool if that's actually what it is doing.

I thought the console's still rendering the game at w/e resolution it's supposed to but if you don't have a 1080p TV you're only seeing 720p on your 720p TV.

Wrong, the game still renders everything at the same resolution it always does it's only that final output resolution that changes. Same was true for 360 and PS3 outputting to an SD TV. it has slowdown in all the same places because the game is still rendering at the same resolution internally.

So things won't be going offscreen because the game's being rendered at 4k but only displaying 1080p ?

I don't think a 720p TV "knows" how to downsample 4k video. FWIU the Pro would just output at 720p so it would be smooth butta

Are you guys retarded or something? Modern technology knows how to shrink or stretch a video stream to fit the screen.
And by "modern" I mean "since the 90s"

Yeah, but with these modes can you even use them if the output isn't set to what the mode supports ?

I thought there were exceptions with these modes selected in the PS4 Pro

yeah because composite on a tube and hdmi on an lcd use the same scaling methods

Yeah I remember scaling issues with my 4k blue-ray movies in fucking 90s YOU DUMB RETARD

I'm not the one using the blanket term "modern technology" to reference both crt and 4k

i'm sure there's a ps2 remaster or text game that can hit those high numbers on ps4

Do you know what does the word "since" means, you evidently illiterate paedophile?

You’d think so, but funnily enough...there isn’t.

Actually Rocket League, Sonic Mania, and Paladins are the only PS4 pro game that are native 4k (occasional dynamic resolution dips to 1660p) and mostly hit 60fps.

So if you want 4k/60fps on a PS4 pro those are your options.

We were talking about today's technology, then you mentioned something different from 20 years ago saying that it's the same capacity because God knows why. That makes me illiterate, got it.

"since" means "starting from", you absolute fucking moron.
As in "it was expected behaviour for decades".

It has nothing to do with CRT, you fucking retard, aside from the fact even CRTs know how to do it.

If you have a device outputting 4k video into an older 720 (etc) display it will not always output since those displays were not designed the process the throughput of 4k. Read that sentence with diligence. You will have to change the resolution to a lower setting.
Promptly resume fellatio.
