PlayStation Ps5 Pro Technical Presentation
- Thread starter cm2
- Start date
PS5 pro has already been shadow confirmed, so can't wait to see the new hardware tomorrow.
I genuinely can't believe that Sony is charging people 700 dollars for a digital only console, ridiculous.
The extra power is tempting, and I think the bulk of that price is from GPU and a 2 tb ssd. Still, I'll stick to my current ps5.
$810 if you get the external drive.
Better to save the money for ps 6 instead that will be with a new GPU and CPU entierly and probably will be with a faster RAM too. Yeah the price increase is mainly for the GPU rendering core numbers upgrade and also the ssd storage capacity upgrade. And i also wonder if sony payed SE more money in order to make FF 7 Rebirth to take advantage of PS5 pro upgraded hardware and to remain ps5 exclusive a little longer.
The price of $700 for the PS5 Pro is expensive for a digital-only console.
Also the presentation was extremely lackluster as well.
The Ps5 Pro GPU is using AMD's next Radeon graphics hardware, or RDNA 4 with nice RT performance. So Sony pushed AMD to improve ray-tracing capabilities of their GPU. Because of the PlayStation 5 Pro, the next generation of Radeon graphics cards for PC could be a massive boost to RT performance, could be a game changer for Radeon. Better Competition with NVIDIA is always good, because it will force NVIDIA to lower its GPU price too in the long run. Otherwise NVIDIA will always be charging way too much for their RTX GPU's.
Read Digital Foundry said:
"No, [GTA 6 could not realistically run at 60FPS on the PS5 Pro," Digital Foundry's Richard Leadbetter tells IGN.
"Grand Theft Auto games have always run complex simulations that push the CPU hard, which is why every GTA game has initially launched on their target platforms at 30FPS or lower.
"The PS5 Pro uses the same CPU as the PS5 and it would be extremely challenging to hit 60FPS if the base PS5 version is targeting 30FPS. This isn't a GPU problem, it's a CPU problem."

Case by case basis. Depends on the game. Some games rely more on the GPU cores or GPU bound, some games rely more on the CPU cores or CPU bound and also can be both. GPU bound games will get the most benefit with Ps5 Pro.
You have to buy the stand separately as well so add a bit more to that. Crazy that they can't include a plastic stand for free with it
I think the PS5 Pro not coming with a stand is unfortunate.
Maybe but usually most people are going to sell it/trade it in.
