Forget all the talk about DX12 features added to GPU (that is not DX12 feature itself but a Polaris feature that MS will use together with DX12 like Sony uses with their low level APIs) and others tricks added to CPU... talking about what the console can delivery with that hardware.

> XB1: GPU +358%, CPU +31%, RAM +50%, BW +379%
> PS4: GPU +226%, CPU +43%, RAM +50%, BW +85%
> Pro: GPU +43%, CPU +9%, RAM +33%, BW +49%

These are all specs that affect performance after all... so can Scorpio really reach the mystical 4k??? I do think not with small part of the library being the exception... most games won't be 4k.

- 1080p games on XB1 will probably be 4k on Scorpio.
- 900p games on XB1 will probably be close to 4k on Scorpio.
- 1080p games on PS4 will probably be close to 4k on Scorpio.
- 900p on PS4 will be probably be in the middle of half-4k and 4k.
- 4k games on Pro will be probably 4k on Scorpio.
- 1800p games on Pro will be probably 4k on Scorpio.
- 1440p games on Pro will probably be near 4k on Scorpio.
- 1200p games on Pro will be probably be in the middle of half-4k and 4k.
- 1080p games on Pro will be probably below half-4k on Scorpio.
