*requires TV with HDMI2.1**requires 4K screen.
Which one should I take? First of all, it depends on whether your screen or TV can display 4K at all. The next question is whether all HDMI 2.1 functions are supported and whether your device can display up to 120 FPS or has 120 Hz.
Last, but not least, you have to decide whether you prefer a slightly prettier, sharper and more detailed image want to see, or if you value more on one smoother display that appears less jerky or blurred.
With an action-packed title like God of War Ragnarök it’s usually worth it, rather on performance to put. However, 30 FPS doesn’t bother some players and many swear by it that after a short time you get used to it anyway.
If you use a 4K and 120 Hz TV with an HDMI 2.1 connectionyou can confidently click on the 40FPS/40Hz mode set with variable refresh rate. It looks absolutely stunning and is also pleasantly smooth to play.
