Just to add some extra context, the PS5 HDMI 2.1 port is capped to 32gbps (not full bandwidth) which means you can do 4K 120hz at 4:2:2, not 4K 120hz 4:4:4 if you had full bandwidth.

One thing I don't get is why some games don't let you use 120 fps mode even without a 120hz monitor/TV. On my PC, having 120fps is important even if you don't have a 60hz monitor because it reduces input latency. Does that not affect the PS5? Is the input latency the same no matter how much the FPS? It probably depends on the game, but I have a feeling that input latency would be better with 120 fps, which I think is more important that the smooth buttery feeling of 120hz.

Make sure you also plug it into a 120hz hdmi socket on the appropriate monitor tv. I have an A80j Bravia and didn’t know this at first that there are certain hdmi sockets that will do this not all of them
It’s also worth mentioning that in some cases even if your screen supports 120Hz, it’s not through its’ Hdmi port (, rather DP usually), so be sure to check Hdmi port version when buying a new TV/Monitor.
i have never seen a tv with display port as its main output/input, idk what you’re talking abt bruh, you’ll only ever find display port on a monitor not a tv, consoles dont use display port man lmfao idk what you’re talking abt
@@nikkybear That’s why I worded it the way I did. I was talking about any screen generally, since you can connect your console to a monitor as well (and many people do)
I have an ASUS TUF Gaming monitor than is capable of running up to 165 HZ. I use the HDMI cable that came with my PS5 and I enabled every setting you said to enable, my games still will not run at 120 HZ. I’m not sure what to do
Check ur monitor settings. Something along the lines of Game Mode should be there to enable. Or i have an Asus Rog Strix and on the settings i have the image>HDR>Asus Gaming HDR. So I cap at 1080 @ 120. Hope this helps.
Nice video, straight to the point no bs, it reminds me of me going crazy with my PS4 not displaying HDR and it was all down the fact I was using a crappy HDMI cable, once I switched to the included cable it started working, but it is difficult when every site and YT video just go around the bushes and the person giving the advice doesn't really know what they're talking about.
I have to say, every time I see one of your videos, I immediately think, "click bait". Yet I click. And every time I am pleasantly surprised with a piece of new info about my PS5. Keep up the good work! Since my tv does support 1080@120fps, I honestly feel less of a need to upgrade my TV. With how everyone is talking about hdmi 2.1, they all make it seem like you'll never be able to achieve 120fps without it. Happy to see now that is not the case.
@@flos3599 not gonna kill me. I've been playing my ps4 at 1080 for the last 7 years. For PvP FPS games like COD, I'd rather have the additional frames over graphics. I mean... Let's face it. Nobody has ever played COD for the graphics. Destiny is a great example here too. PvE content is all 4k (or close to it) 60fps. Crucible matches, 1080 @120. And, at last for Destiny, it automatically switches these settings for me depending on the game mode I am playing. The jump to 120 is nice. But to drop close to $1000 for the luxury of not having to choose between either 4k or 120 is not worth it. I have the best of both worlds on the TV I already own.
@@paintedwolf1654 The jump to 120 is nice ? But you're already at 120 no? It's not because it costs a lot that it is bad. Btw, you can find 4k120 tv at 600 dollars. Which tv do you have ?
@@flos3599 Yes, you are correct. Mine can achieve 1080@120 or 4k@60 I'm just saying, that paying for an upgrade doesn't seem to be worth the money when I'm just paying for the convenience of not having to choose between 4k OR 120. I'm sure I'll eventually make the upgrade, we'll see what all the next year holds for the new lineup of gaming TVs. The best is yet to come. However, right now, I'm perfectly happy with the TV I have. Even more so with this little nugget of info. Lol Vizio M65-D0 (2016)
Hey John, love the vids they're very helpful. I just received my ps5 . Do you know if I can use my 1st gen 700 stealth headset ( turtle beach)? I can't seem to figure it out.
1st thing you do is turn off the voice over when you are done setting it up man you will know what i mean when you hook it up, also make sure when you turn it on be there that only is on there once you will know what i mean when you see it. it's when it first loads for the very first time. i dunno if it's been fixed someone can tell me if it has but it was said that safe mode was bricking consoles i dunno if that still is but just to be on the safe side don't do it i don't
I’ve been watching vids on the PS5 the whole morning, tryna decide if I tell my landlord to take a hike and buy the console and open a UA-cam Channel, this vid was helpful. Cuz now I know I don’t need a monitor.
@John Glasscock Thanks for the tip! So If I'm understanding correctly, no 50/60-60Hz outputs can play 120FPS? 60Hz allows for up to 60FPS and 120Hz allows for up to 120FPS correct?
@@Freddo1 depends on the HDMI slot and the supported frequencies. If it's 4K120 certified at least then it will run 120Hz, you can't go by just the frames or Hz...
Sweet. I just bought Samsung Q7OT 55” and my Ps5 should shop Monday and arrive on Tuesday. Can’t bloody wait to set them both up. Not unpacked tv yet and I may wait till next week to set both up together. 😁
Great info to know. HDMI 2.1 isn’t super worth it rn as there isn’t many games at all supporting 120 hz 4k. Hell there isn’t a terrible amount of games that support 120 frames, so the number of those that do 4k alongside it is even fewer
You don’t have to change it. If left on default the game will automatically send 120fps refresh rate if the in game settings is set to 120. For example, mine is still set as default but if I play destiny 2 and enable 120fps (from in game settings) for crucible, it will automatically switch to 120.
I got my ps5 on Tuesday and I love it I was scratching my head wondering why I wasn’t getting 120 frames per second but I realized I need 120hz but this video helped thanks. edit: my tv doesn’t support 120hz ;-;
Greetings ⭐2021 has already started and it will be a great year 🙌 I'm developing a game called Parallel, it's on Steam but I want to bring it to the consoles, weeks ago I brought a Gameplay.
Useful info, but was about to say as you noted, for some of us with bad TVs it doesn't help coz it gets limited to whatever your TV is capped at 😭 Keep up the great content & info 👊🏿💯🎉
You don't have to change the game default. You can just select performance mode in the game settings, right? Also, there are very few games that support 4K/120, so you'll typically have to choose between 4K/60 and 1080p/120 (or even 4K/30 and 1440p/60).
Finally got mine, but I think I’ll wait till some updates kick in before messing with refresh rates, tho I am slightly disappointed on the resolution as a whole, and yeah I have a new Samsung series 8 tv, just is not eye popping like I expected
Hola amigo una consulta es más recomendable usar el cable del ps5 o usar el cable que trajo mi monitor que es 2.0 por que el monitor no tiene puerto 2.1 quedo atento espero puedas responderme 😅
If your tv or monitor doesn’t support HDMI 2.1 but does support 120hz and up, then buy a EDID emulator on Amazon. This will allow you to play games at 120fps even if your monitor doesn’t support HDMI 2.0

Nice video, straight to the point no bs, it reminds me of me going crazy with my PS4 not displaying HDR and it was all down the fact I was using a crappy HDMI cable, once I switched to the included cable it started working, but it is difficult when every site and YT video just go around the bushes and the person giving the advice doesn't really know what they're talking about.
Lol they do it so that they get more minutes on the video .I guess it’s all about monetizing their accounts.
I have to say, every time I see one of your videos, I immediately think, "click bait".
Yet I click. And every time I am pleasantly surprised with a piece of new info about my PS5.
Keep up the good work!
Since my tv does support 1080@120fps, I honestly feel less of a need to upgrade my TV.
With how everyone is talking about hdmi 2.1, they all make it seem like you'll never be able to achieve 120fps without it. Happy to see now that is not the case.
Nope but you're locked a 1080p
@@flos3599 not gonna kill me. I've been playing my ps4 at 1080 for the last 7 years.
For PvP FPS games like COD, I'd rather have the additional frames over graphics. I mean... Let's face it. Nobody has ever played COD for the graphics.
Destiny is a great example here too.
PvE content is all 4k (or close to it) 60fps.
Crucible matches, 1080 @120.
And, at last for Destiny, it automatically switches these settings for me depending on the game mode I am playing.
The jump to 120 is nice. But to drop close to $1000 for the luxury of not having to choose between either 4k or 120 is not worth it. I have the best of both worlds on the TV I already own.
@@paintedwolf1654 The jump to 120 is nice ? But you're already at 120 no?
It's not because it costs a lot that it is bad. Btw, you can find 4k120 tv at 600 dollars.
Which tv do you have ?
@@flos3599 Yes, you are correct. Mine can achieve 1080@120 or 4k@60
I'm just saying, that paying for an upgrade doesn't seem to be worth the money when I'm just paying for the convenience of not having to choose between 4k OR 120.
I'm sure I'll eventually make the upgrade, we'll see what all the next year holds for the new lineup of gaming TVs. The best is yet to come.
However, right now, I'm perfectly happy with the TV I have. Even more so with this little nugget of info. Lol

Got the ps5 just saving up now for the TV I'll keep this in mind thanks
Hey John, love the vids they're very helpful. I just received my ps5 . Do you know if I can use my 1st gen 700 stealth headset ( turtle beach)? I can't seem to figure it out.
Nvm I figured it out.
Pov: you don’t have a ps5 and you’re still watching this video
I’m so excited my ps5 is coming Tomorrow 😆
I recommend you play Astro’s Playroom first. It comes free (pre-installed) with every PlayStation 5 and it’s a nice demo for the DualSense controller.
@@Snoy_Fly Definitely
1st thing you do is turn off the voice over when you are done setting it up man you will know what i mean when you hook it up, also make sure when you turn it on be there that only is on there once you will know what i mean when you see it. it's when it first loads for the very first time. i dunno if it's been fixed someone can tell me if it has but it was said that safe mode was bricking consoles i dunno if that still is but just to be on the safe side don't do it i don't
@@Snoy_Fly i agree it's not a bad game either
@@rolandofgilead43 I’ll make sure to do all that
I’ve been watching vids on the PS5 the whole morning, tryna decide if I tell my landlord to take a hike and buy the console and open a UA-cam Channel, this vid was helpful. Cuz now I know I don’t need a monitor.
I finally just grabbed a PS5 digital. Now Im watching all your videos lol Thanks
Just now? Is it still that difficult to obtain one? I’ve had mine since it first came out I thought by now people could easily get one
@@goldxgoldx5625 I stopped looking a while ago then randomly searched and got it.
Finally, a proper tutorial that clears things out
@John Glasscock Thanks for the tip! So If I'm understanding correctly, no 50/60-60Hz outputs can play 120FPS? 60Hz allows for up to 60FPS and 120Hz allows for up to 120FPS correct?
Right
What if you have a 144hz moniter will you still get 120hz aswell
@@Freddo1 depends on the HDMI slot and the supported frequencies. If it's 4K120 certified at least then it will run 120Hz, you can't go by just the frames or Hz...
Crazy got a ps5 for our son an csnt bust it open till this Christmas tell me that isn't a ball breaker 🤣
Just got mine ... and I'm glad i found u
Sweet. I just bought Samsung Q7OT 55” and my Ps5 should shop Monday and arrive on Tuesday. Can’t bloody wait to set them both up. Not unpacked tv yet and I may wait till next week to set both up together. 😁

@@brandon8987 I was thinking that that’s why I looked into 120 hz thanks bro I appreciate it !
Great info to know. HDMI 2.1 isn’t super worth it rn as there isn’t many games at all supporting 120 hz 4k. Hell there isn’t a terrible amount of games that support 120 frames, so the number of those that do 4k alongside it is even fewer
It is worth it.

The games have to have the option, just because the monitor can run 120hz doesn't mean all games will

Yes! It took them a month, but I did get a hundred dollar discount for it being late.
@@diemos322jones9 nice
You don’t have to change it. If left on default the game will automatically send 120fps refresh rate if the in game settings is set to 120. For example, mine is still set as default but if I play destiny 2 and enable 120fps (from in game settings) for crucible, it will automatically switch to 120.
Not for all games
@@flos3599 I think all games have a toggle in the in game settings

Someday this information will come in handy!
Greetings ⭐2021 has already started and it will be a great year 🙌 I'm developing a game called Parallel, it's on Steam but I want to bring it to the consoles, weeks ago I brought a Gameplay.
I appreciate your optimism but, it won’t be a great year.
Also, the end of your sentence / plug doesn’t make sense.
Took me forever to figure this out when I got my new tv.
I just did this and looks waay better thank you
Very good thanks a lot 👍👍👍👍👍, what monitor do you have ? , what hdmi 2.1 monitor do you recomend ?
I still don't know if I want a PS5, the lack of native 1440p resolution support is a real bummer to me.
😅
Useful info, but was about to say as you noted, for some of us with bad TVs it doesn't help coz it gets limited to whatever your TV is capped at 😭
Keep up the great content & info 👊🏿💯🎉
You don't have to change the game default. You can just select performance mode in the game settings, right?
Also, there are very few games that support 4K/120, so you'll typically have to choose between 4K/60 and 1080p/120 (or even 4K/30 and 1440p/60).
Yeh, you can just choose in game
Finally got mine, but I think I’ll wait till some updates kick in before messing with refresh rates, tho I am slightly disappointed on the resolution as a whole, and yeah I have a new Samsung series 8 tv, just is not eye popping like I expected

If your tv or monitor doesn’t support HDMI 2.1 but does support 120hz and up, then buy a EDID emulator on Amazon. This will allow you to play games at 120fps even if your monitor doesn’t support HDMI 2.0
