I have a Sony TV with a "Motion Flow 100hz" panel.
Does this means it can go up to 100fps?

Nope.

You need HDMI 2.1 compatible tv and VRR to achieve 120fps.

Not even at 1080P?

If you have a 1080p tv, should be no problem.

But for frame-rate, might be around 30/60. Better to refer to your tv model / specification.

That was fast.. With the ps5 running out of stock, should I get this instead. Was planning to get a Series S first and then Ps5.
2999 for 3 months warranty seems risky.

So other than mirror reflections, what does RT actually do in Control Ultimate edition?
I'm not really sold on RT technology. I feel that it burdens the system too much just for abit of light here and there.

I played Hitman 3 without RT, and still feels that it looks gorgeous already. Does RT makes it a different game?

Ray tracing isn't just for reflections. You have the scene accurate and also physically based materials affecting real time reflections, ray casting and also shadows. The gimmick that people know the most would be ray traced reflections.

On PC, for me ray tracing is definitely the best way to do all these. The RTX 3000 cards now can do RT at 1440p or 4k at 60 fps quite well. Compared to just a few short years ago, ray tracing hasn't progressed to this point. AMD only managed to have RT feature starting with the RDNA2 cards, as well as PS5 and Xbox Series X.

The short version is that ray tracing makes lighting and reflections more realistic. In the past, reflections are just faked using screen space reflections. Lighting is even less realistic because the artist needs to place fixed light source in the scene, which doesn't take into account the physical properties of the material that light is bouncing off from.

However, I do agree that on consoles right now, ray tracing performance is not quite there yet. You have to trade between higher resolution / framerate vs better visuals using ray tracing. But the current gen is just starting. I will expect AMD to work with Microsoft and Sony to continue improving the system level and also OS, further improving ray tracing capabilities.

So are the hardware of Ps5 and Xseries enough or they will have to come out with PS5 pro or Series Pro to fully achieve proper RT?
These new gen consoles were advertised to do 4K 120hz RT. Now it seems like you can only pick one of these features for each game

Eneloops man...

Only Recently threw away some 11 yr old “Sanyo” eneloops because they stopped holding a charge.

They’re the reason I didn’t bother with the series 2 elite controller.

Edit - or the IKEA branded ones

My Eneloops are 12 years old. So old that it is still Sanyo's. Still can use. 4-5 days per charge. I have 4 of them so no problem

ya but compared to ps store. they always giving special discount like every month got promo. but game pass also ok.

You can get games much cheaper than ps store discount. Even newly launched games. In Argentina game store.

My recent purchases:
I got Hitman 3 at launch for less than RM120 after conversion.
Dirt 5 + year 1 season pass less than RM30 (right before they add the game into game pass, Damnit)
Borderlands 3 RM 51

Can't get such deals in PS store

Outriders on game pass. Very nice. I am laughing at my friend on PS5 who need to buy it.
We were going to buy it and play together since it can cross platform.
