Why pay $499 for checkerboard 4K when you can pay $399?

All the coli PC brehs, saw this a mile away. I have 24 teraflops, but still have trouble in some graphically intensive games at achieving 4K/ultra/60fps. And I spent $2400 on those (not to mention my other components). 6 teraflops is laughable to me (but Console developers are good at optimizing, so maybe it's not all bad :jbhmm:)

In general, you need very expensive tech to get true 4K, ultra, 60fps (I'm talking like my gpus and cpu). It's doable is most games for me (even 5K, like in the witcher 3), but not all (deus ex comes to mind). My shyt costs thousands more than what I'll pay for the X1X when it comes out.

Given this, expect the X1X to not achieve 4K/60fps without rendering checkerboard wizardry.







Everybody is talking about 6 teraflops this and that. I have (literally) 4 times as many teraflops. If I can't achieve 4K/Ultra/60fps with 4 times the power of an X1X, how's the X1X gonna preform? Expect downgrades.

Yeah they fukked up.
Crackdown 3 failed to wow.
The big seller is 4k Minecraft with Nintendo owners.
What justifies the extra $100? Bluray?:francis:

I mean if you looked at the hardware it was obvious it could not push true 4k when the 1080 ti struggles at 4k 60 fps. The xbox 1 x gpu is on par with the rx 580/480

I was never expecting 60fps but Phil said this will be real 4K. It should be at least that. I can get this for nothing out of pocket but I'm seriously questioning if I should even bother. I already have a PS4 Pro anyway so I may just redirect that $500 to the 1080ti successor next year.

I still can't believe Phil sat up there and told those bold faced lies with zero fukks given.

I doubt it would do true 4k at all times I read that they expect drops to 1080p 60fps

It should do 4K 30fps. Must be that weak jaguar processor holding things back because a 980ti is the same teraflops and can hit 4K @ 30fps

Because what was shown on the Anthem reveal took nikkas until this article to know it was checkerboard.

As a nikka who's only now trying to understand the shyt that y'all nikkas claim to be on a knowledgeable pedestal about, the shyt I saw looked amazing and I'm just chasing the best available console performance while I play with my squad...I could give a fukk about checkersboards, checkers or monopolyboard 4k.

Anyone purchasing a console so they can attach a specs reader so they can beat off to should seek unbiased opinion but should also not be on consoles.

Or does it fukk up OPs punchline?

My bad, nikkas cook.:mjlol:
