So with the release of the PS4 Pro, a lot of people are talking about HDR.
After ages of googling and searching many sites I have come here looking for some details on this technology. At first I though HDR was something TV manufacturers were making TV's with, however after finding a post on Steam talking about how PC has had "HDR for ages," i'm not to sure. Does this mean it is a visual effect rather than something that is built into the display? Does that also mean that I can run HDR on my existing display without buying an entirely new one? Or do you have to have a specific display for it to work? Is HDR more demanding / will it drop more frames than a normal display. I have found a lot explaining what HDR does in terms of photography, but very little in terms of gaming. I am very confused about this and, what it means for PC gamers. Any explanation on help would be greatly appreciated.
