>720p doesn’t look good. My steam deck runs at 800p on a 7 inch screen.

Omg how could you be so dumb my man, have you not heard about upscaling at all?? My tv is 4k my series S does not run at 4k. it still looks very good. You're comparing to a console which comes with a built-in display lmaooo (which looks amazing btw) but you completely lost the plot man, of course my tv is not from fucking 2005 so its not stuck in 720p and the Variable Resolution on the series S rarely gets to 720p even in the most demanding games anyway.

>Also, the series S has 4 TFLOPS. The 3050 has 9.1. Literally double the performance. Even the 5500xt, a very underpowered card, achieves 5.1 teraflops, a whole 25%+ increase over the series S. Youre basically saying the equivalent of a budget pc from 2019 is future proof.

Another braindead hardware take. TERAFLOPS DONT MATTER WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ARCHITECTURES .

And yes admittedly, the 3050 IS more powerful than the series S. But still most comparable to it, cause guess what? The 1650 doesn't have raytracing pal.

And yes the Series S is "future proof" (in the meaning that it will run all AAA games until 2027-8) simply because consoles have longer lifespan and support than Pcs since they're not really upgradable, so developers always optimize their games for it more.

The PS4 and the gtx750ti were very similar in terms of power and performance, do you think all the new games that are still coming to the ps4 can still run as good in the 750ti nowadays?? Really makes you think doesn't it? 🤔 or maybe not cause you don't appear to have a brain.

Upscaling 720p to 4k doesn’t yield good results, and that’s even when using dlss 3, the most advanced technology.

Teraflops are literally one of the most straightforward metrics - it’s how many trillion floating point metrics the GPU can handle every second.

The series S is similar to the gtx 1650, which is actually ray tracing capable. Besides, the series S can hardly handle it either.

And yeah, it will run the AAA games, but at 720p30, on the lowest available settings. It’s just a lesser console.

The 750ti actually handles games these days with similar performance to the PS4, which is piss poor.
