Insider Moore's Law is Dead shared insights with NXGamer's Michael, revealing that the AI upscaling is expected to target 1440p at 120fps and 4k at 60fps. This potential performance leap is significant compared to the base PS5, which can achieve a maximum of 4k at 60fps for select games, Gamingbible reported.
