Fresh leaks indicate some exciting new specifications about the PS5 Pro’s GPU.

Real-world gaming performance is expected to see a roughly 45% boost over PS5.

The PS5 Pro is currently projected to launch in time for the 2024 holiday season.


As Sony's midcycle update for the PlayStation 5 appears to be just around the corner, leaks continue to emerge detailing the console's advanced hardware features. The latest leak reveals some information about the new GPU coming to the PS5 Pro, promising increased performance and expanded functionality for demanding gamers. According to data reportedly obtained from Sony's developer portal, the PS5 Pro will have 30 workgroup processors (WGP), significantly more than the standard console. This gives it a theoretical maximum performance of 33.5 teraflops, which is significantly higher than the original PS5's 10.23 teraflops.

However, Sony's documentation suggests that real-world gaming performance is likely to increase by 45%, rather than directly reflecting the ~200% teraflop increase. This can result in a smoother visual experience and potentially higher resolution and frame rates.

Beyond pure performance, Sony is integrating the cutting edge technology of his DirectX 12 Ultimate into his GPU of his PS5 Pro. Features like Variable Rate Shading, which dynamically adjusts rendering details in different areas of the screen, and Hybrid MSAA, an advanced anti-aliasing technique, allow developers to further enhance visuals while maintaining smooth performance. can.

Other known hardware specs for the PS5 Pro include increased memory at 18,000 MT/s and Sony's proprietary upscaling and anti-aliasing solution PSSR.

It is speculated that the PlayStation 5 Pro will be released at the end of 2024, possibly in time for the holiday season.
