Why are you setting your resolution to 4k for a 1280x800 display?

I never said I was. The PS5 runs at that resolution. The question was asked why would anyone buy a PlayStation if the games find their way to PC. I gave reasons why someone might want to buy a game on PlayStation anyway. Higher resolution than the Steam Deck is capable of (handheld or docked) and ray tracing are good reasons why. That's in addition to the release delay and their sometimes bad performance on PC.
