SG-17 Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 One of the features not talked about in the blog that was added with today's firmware update is support for 120fps over 1080p. That means if you have a monitor that is 1080p144hz you can play supported PS5 games in 120fps now. I just tested it with Rainbow 6 Siege and it works perfectly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turniplord Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 The console has supported 120fps/hz via 1080-2160p since launch, I’ve played BL3, TH1+2, and DMV 5 at 1080/120 via my tv (as it doesn’t support it at a higher resolution). the toggle they’ve added is supposed to just help if using a monitor that the console doesn’t realise can handle the higher framerate.

SG-17 Posted April 14, 2021 Author Share Posted April 14, 2021 It didn't support 120hz over HDMI 1.4, no matter the display, before today from what I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eraezr Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Misleading title. Folks have been playing 120Hz modes since launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking online, that may explain why certain 144hx monitors didn't work at launch with the 120fps modes. Essentially though, the setting has always been there - it's just been set to auto in the background. The new update just gives us the ability to disable it if the game is auto-enabling it (like in DMC 5). I have HDMI 2.0 on my TV, so 1080/120 has been there since day one, but if it's now working for people with only 1.4 then that's a cool update - it just wasn't listed as such in the patch notes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
