PS4 Update 4.06 Rolling Out Today To Bring Stability

The PlayStation 4 Pro definitely looks the part of being a high-end games console. Return to safe mode one more time and go to the change resolution menu to select yuv420.

PS4 is one of the best selling consoles of all time.

The extra 1GB of DRAM, which is slower than the onboard GDDR5 already in the system, is suspected to run background applications when the user switches between apps and games in PS4 Pro. Others (such as Titanfall 2) are going for a stable sub-4K resolution and then upscaling from there, which is still an improvement but not as marked.

Eurogamer’s Digital Foundry analyzed the game running on both the PS4 and PS4 Pro simultaneously, with them choosing the same server and the same map and following the same route through it.

The PS4 Pro comes with a double-sized version of the GPU in the original PS4.

Frame rate is said to be the focus of the PS4 Pro. Now, not for one moment do I believe Sony will make this miracle happen, but PS3 backwards compatibility for PS4 Pro consoles would be awesome.

The PS4 update 4.06 is now being rolled out in waves so if someone still hasn’t received it, they need not worry as their turn will come soon. The headline feature of the Pro model is that supports a 4K output, meaning those that have a 4K TV can finally take advantage of that higher resolution.

If PS4 Pro restarts with an image, select yuv420 option and the problem may be resolved. Many game analysts have claimed consoles are becoming more like PCs, and that’s true. According to Play Station Life Style, the offer for the PS4 Pro will also include Sony’s recently released hardware.

Twice the GPU power, bumped up CPU, same PS4 games.

Sony has beefed up the cooling system from older PS4 versions and the current PS4 Slim. We mention the buttons because the original PS4 had the most irritating touch-sensitive buttons that would nearly always be accidentally pressed if you got too close to them. So the brightly colored cars out there are now going to look ideal in the game. It also offers more detail around black. The races are said to be smoother, more vibrant and sleeker on the Pro. Just a word of advice – some Samsung TVs are now using HDMI UHD Color instead of HDR on screen settings. Called Project Scorpio, the company has hinted that regular updates and cloud storage will allow customers to buy graphical upgrades with greater regularity than the six-year console-cycles of the past. So, you may still need a 4K Blu-ray player. Now on eBay Deals, Sony authorized dealer Antonline has pushed the price down to $369.99, making this the official first PS4 Pro discount since last week Thursday’s debut.

Is the PS4 Pro really worth it?

The Pro is effectively a mid-generation upgrade, built for the best performance possible in PS VR and 4k gaming. This chart shows the details of sales of the PlayStation consoles, although it should be noted that prior to the release of the PS4 Slim, Japan had a shortage of PlayStation 4 stock for several weeks so this data is nearly certainly boosted by the fact you couldn’t get hold of a PlayStation 4 in Japan for a short while before the launch. Pair it with a 4K HDR TV and games look absolutely astonishing.
