Don't have a PS5, but I enjoy your content and subbed anyway. Hopefully, it will come of use when I have a PS5 in 2037.

I would like everyone to know that when you have completed all these changes, in the settings where you can see the 'video output information', it will not set to 4k 120hz unless you open a game. That game of course does need to be able to support 120hz. After you started a game and go back to the settings, it will have changed to 4k 120hz.

Hi John, as an IT pro and gamer I love seeing your videos with tips on systems that I wasn't aware of. Makes me gaming experience that much better, all thanks to you man.

I didn't even realize about this, thanks, John! My monitor supports 144hz, but I didn't think about this lol.

One thing that is worth mentioning is that when I couldn’t see 120 as an option via my x90j I realised that the enhanced format (Dolby vision) option does not currently allow 120. At least on my tv it doesn’t. So just choose enhanced format (the option above)

Also, if you use a receiver, the HDMI port must be at least HDMI 2.0b compliant (circa 2017) to provide the necessary bandwidth for 4k120Hz. I have to bypass this by plugging the PS5 directly into the TV's HDMI 2.1 port, and using ARC passthrough for audio. The small downside is, without eARC, I am forced into Dolby audio (no Linear PCM surround.) It's a small price to pay in return for full bandwidth video quality, and a much smarter option than buying a new receiver if it isn't necessary.

Literally getting my PS5 today and I can finally start watching the PS5 tips videos.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate very straight forward short tutorial vids!

Don’t need to worry about this with an LG CX. All 4 ports are HDMI 2.1 4K/120

Just got my Ps5 a couple days ago.. imma binge your videos on the console to get the best out of it

[TheProphegy]

I’m thankful I caved and bought a LG CX with my PS5 a while back. What a beautiful combo. HDMI 2.1 is a must going forward. If you don’t care to spend some money then get a TV or monitor that has HDMI 2.1.

Your videos will come in handy when I actually get my hands on one unit. Thanks a lot!

Thank you bro, currently waiting on my X85J 50 inch to be delivered, can't wait to hook the PS5 up and see the world of difference 🙌

[trAp_Tuning]

Always the best tips and tricks! Thanks brother! Really REALLY enjoying my Sony X85J PS5 TV! Can't wait for the PS5 VRR update 😎🔥

[jonronzo]

Thanks man. Didn't check this until now. Now my PS5 runs in 120Hz 😁

[RikkuChaser]

I got the 89J (basically 85J) last month and really enjoying it. Yes viewing angles aren't the best but when you sit straight in front of it it's an amazing view. Smooth image and no stutter/blur at 120fps either.

[menace]

Im getting a ps5 and i watched all your vids so that im prepared, they're so short, informative and useful 👌keep it up

[mewatchyvideo]

Thank you soo much for this! I've been using the wrong port for over a year and had no idea. Definitely going to start tuning into these Vida
