    PS4 graphics

    Am considering playing on PS4 so that I can play from my couch.

    I am now playing on a 2560x1440 monitor with a benchmark score of 12k. Let's assume that current graphics quality is 10. What score would playing on a PS4 be?

    Here is an excellent comparison video from IGN that might help you make your decision.

    I'm on a similar PC setup, and my girlfriend went from PS3 to PS4. I often see them at the same and I'd say a solid 8 graphically, mostly due to the reduced resolution. You're also further from the screen meaning UI tends to need to be bigger, so you do miss those pixels. I upgraded my PS4 HDD with a hybrid SSHD and I also highly recommend doing that. I've got a raid 0 SATA array and she loads faster than me into every zone/dungeon. Disk access speed also accounts for delays/reduction in visible enemies and players, so it's not just fast-load convenience factor.

    You get bigger boobs on PS4. At least, that's what IGN's comparison video showed me.

    As someone who has played the game on PS3, PS4, and PC @maximum/60fps, I feel safe in saying that is a very bad comparison video to demonstrate the differences.

    Edit: Nevermind, it's not so bad if you change it to 1080p and then maximize it on a 1920x1080 screen. Its default values are just bad for seeing anything.

    playing on PS4 you get 30fps to 20 fps but if you use to high-end PC fps like 60+ fps you see the differences

    Honestly it looks as if the PS4 has better shading than the PC...as seen in the comparisons in Thanalan. But towards the end of the year the PC will get the DX11 upgrade and there will be no comparison! Perhaps......

    Why? Won't ps4 get dx11? It shoud get it to, there's no reason not to do it... I think it shoud handle it well.

    No, it uses OpenGL. OpenGL supports the same stuff, but that doesn't mean the PS4 will get it. I mean it IS a low to low-mid range PC after all.
