Does the PS5 actually run 4K?

***Most PS5 games don't run at a fixed 4K or 120 fps. They use dynamic resolution, which means the image scales up or down depending on what's happening on screen. So yeah, it can look like 4K, but it's not always full 4K all the time. Same with frame rate, most titles target 60 fps, but it fluctuates.
