      4k 60fps HDR experience that most people are getting used to from the main console makers

      What games are you playing on console where you are actually getting 4k native resolution at 60fps?

            Forza Motorsport will do 4k60 on Series X for example. Most Racing and Sports games will do 4k60 on modern consoles since they’re easy to render.

              No, Forza Motorsport uses dynamic resolution upscaled to 4k in Performance mode, and in Quality mode it also uses dynamic resolution but targets 30fps.

              Why are they so easy to render compared to other genres? What makes realism so easy to render like it’s a newer generation than the console it’s on? Like Forza Motorsport 2 on Xbox 360 looks far more detailed than the average Xbox 360 game. What gives?

              I was asking specifically about native 4K games, not dynamic resolution upscaled to 4k.

                  I agree with your original comment; it’s worth using a dedicated PC for gaming on the TV. But I think your second sentence is just parroting current-gen console marketing. It’s not actually true that current-gen consoles are providing a 4k@60 HDR experience.

                  if you wanted an answer why are you arguing?

                  It was a rhetorical question. There are no actual current-gen releases running at 4k60 native resolution. They all use dynamic resolution with 1080p-1440p rendering resolution that then upscales to 4k for display.
