Details about the PS5 Pro continue to leak, and we recently learned that it’s likely to be targeted at Holidays 2024 publish window, and it will obviously have “PlayStation Spectral Super-Resolution,” whatever that is. While the headlines suggested it was “The most powerful console yet,” we may want to tone down this language because digital foundry It’s believed that the PS5 Pro might not be all that “pro,” at least when it comes to running arguably next year’s biggest game.
Speaking on DF Direct on March 19, as IGN, digital foundry Founder Rich Leadbetter breaks down the reported specs of the PS5 Pro.The console’s CPU is essentially the same as the base version, and both are supported Eight cores 16 threads Zen 2 Clock speeds are up to 3.5GHz. The only difference is that the PS5 Pro’s CPU has a “high CPU frequency mode” that increases the chip’s performance by 10% to 3.85GHz. There are some other significant differences between the two consoles, such as the PS5 Pro’s 33.5 teraflops compared to the PS5’s 10.28 teraflops, but when it comes to producing better frame rates, there’s not much difference between the two CPUs. The similarity in performance raises some concerns among smart people. digital foundry.
“Games that currently target 30 fps will not target 60 frames per second on PlayStation 5 Pro if they are CPU limited,” Leadbetter said of the console’s performance. “So, you know, all the speculation, ‘Hey, this is going to be a great box grand theft auto 6. You’ll be able to run it at 60 frames per second. Unless Rockstar is working on some magical CPU stuff, I don’t think this is going to happen. 10% extra on time [speed] Doesn’t do much at all. It will help you get down to the worst frame rate possible when your CPU is limited, but it’s not a game changer. I think that’s clear. “
according to digital foundryBy comparison, the impact of the PS5 Pro’s higher processing power on actual gaming performance may not be that impressive. They say the system may make gamers who are considering switching to PC gaming think twice, but the incremental improvements in CPU performance over the base PS5 may not entice owners of current models to upgrade.
Still, the PS5 Pro’s improved hardware isn’t without its benefits.and Sony’s proprietary PlayStation Spectral super-resolution upscaling technology, the console will be able to render games at 4K and support 8K and higher resolutions through machine learning.But the timing of the console’s release seems wrong, as Sony won’t release any “new major existing franchise” games until 2025. Until the company can show off a “killer app” that makes the PS5 Pro feel like a necessary upgrade, the console seems like a “nice to have.”

The lid has apparently been pulled off the PS5 Pro can (although Sony has yet to officially confirm its existence, let alone the validity of the reported specs), and the console maker is now reportedly trying to figure out how this happened of.as Gizmodo According to news on March 19, the company has Launch internal investigation into leak Find the source of the downpour.
