The difference is blatant if you have a 4k HDR screen. The games appear so more fluid, less jerky, and with a enhanced colorimetry. The image details ((like the movement of the waves in the open sea) are displayed with a better resolution and less blurring. This technology is possible thanks to a display in 60 frames per second.

The grain of the image East more refined, the contrast is better defined (thanks to HDR) and the light effects will give a better rendering.
