2. That does kinda blow, but a base PS4 at this point is pretty long in the tooth ...

It basically has a upper-mid-range gfx card of 2013 vintage. There's like an AMD 7870 in there.

Very competent for it's time, but that time is well passed.

I'm sure it'll 'run' (i.e. it ostensibly functions properly) but I'd bet it'll chug in challenging scenes simply by virtue of a lack of horsepower, and that is why they warn you off of it.

Once the PS5's are more readily available, keep an eye on the used market I bet you'll see a big rash of PS4 Pro's for pretty cheap (assuming you don't want to spring for a 5).
