Remember back in launch days... All that Xbox vs PS bs. People capping for MS and shit, ok.
Somewhere among the wars, was the info that PS5 HDMI bandwith was limited compared to Xbox. It was true, but someone was saying Sony were going to update the software to remove that limit, just like they patched VRR in.
Basically Sony for some reason limited It to 32gbps, which can make games running at a resolution above 1080p when at 120hz not be able to access the full color bandwith on your TV because they use more than 32gbps.
This is sooo important for games. 4:4:4 is so much better than your regular 4:2:2. It is so different, sharper, more colourful that anyone that can't notice the difference needs an eye test. They say 4:4:4 only makes a difference on text and the rest is unnoticeable, they can suck a dik THO, talking shit like that.
4:2:2 HDR looks like It has a really subtle green/blue filter or haze above your picture. It's really really subtle but then you see 4:4:4 it becomes so noticeable... The important thing though, 4:4:4 is just so much sharper - in GT7, every single car model looks much better as you can see more of the panels, lines and whatnot. That, plus every single color looking like they have the same importance to the picture - it makes for a much much better looking game. Also 4:2:2 is a bit more washed out.
So at 4:2:2 you lose:
+++ Sharpness
++ Colors
+ Contrast (very slight difference)
HERE'S THE WACKNESS
I've been PC MODE on my C1 because of this, enabling full color bandwith, but then for games running at 120hz, the PS5 limits itself. I've started playing GhostWire Tokyo and thought the game looks really good in the HFR Quality Mode, but VRR above 60fps and higher res goes to 4:2:2 automatically, because the console is limited.
Is it really software? This is a very important difference, makes any game look instantly better.
I know Xbox does 40gbps, doesn't have this problem at all.
What gives wit it? Waiting for the PS5 Pro? The fuck they forgot this for, 4:2:2 is kinda garbage, it's pretty playable, but after 4:4:4 goodness, we aint tryna see no blue/green filter fucking the picture up. Give me my colour contrast Sony come on
Also, any workaround to playing at full color at 120hz?
