Tried elden ring still choppy
how low can your TV go?
this can actually be an issue on PS5 noone seemed to think about yet.
on Xbox you can force 120hz ON EVERY GAME, meaning low framerate compensation can be used for 60fps games.
not so on PS5, where 120hz can only be enabled if the game actively supports 120hz output.
so if Elden Ring drops below the VRR window of your TV you are out of luck on PS5.
most older TVs go down to 48hz, newer models reach all the way down to 40hz, HDMI 2.1 VRR supports as low as 20hz I think, but basically no TV actually reaches that low to my knowledge. and the SX can go down to 30hz I think... but again, that's not really supported on any TV yet
on Xbox, I set the system to 120hz for Elden Ring, this measn the console doubles every frame, practically widening my VRR window all the way down to 24fps, since 24fps in-game will get doubled up to 48fps/hz by the Xbox, meaning my lowest 48hz VRR limit still catches these refreshes.
on PS5, you need to stay above 40fps or 48fps depending on TV for games like Elden Ring that only output 60hz
