Sony is gearing up for the big reveal of its PlayStation 5 Pro, with just a few days to go before it hits shelves on November 7. Priced at $699 USD, it promises significant advancements in both resolution and frame rate, courtesy of its AI upscaling technology, PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR). The Pro version packs more power under the hood with enhanced CPU and GPU specs, setting it apart from the initial PlayStation 5 launched in November 2020. With no comparable release from Microsoft’s Xbox, it appears that Sony might have solidified its position at the top of the high-end console market. Just yesterday, a purported teardown of what’s claimed to be “the most powerful console” was shared on YouTube.
This early look at the PlayStation 5 Pro seems to have come from a Portuguese repair shop. The video’s teardown reveals an internal design quite reminiscent of the PlayStation 5 Slim, even suggesting that Slim faceplates might have fit the Pro if not for some tweaks in the interlocking design aimed at preventing such compatibility. This adds credibility to the video, making the teardown seem legitimate.
If you’re eager to peek inside the PS5 Pro, this teardown is worth a watch. However, admiring the internals won’t tell you how they’ll perform—it’s all about the circuitry, not the performance metrics. For that, attention has shifted to a Twitter leak that’s causing quite a stir this week.
A Twitter post, shared by the user @videotechuk_ known for his credible leaks on Rockstar Games, claims to reveal the official specs of the PlayStation 5 Pro. Unsurprisingly, the Pro maintains the same Zen 2 architecture as its predecessor to ensure strict compatibility with current games. However, there’s chatter about potential boosted clock speeds compared to the base model.
A standout detail from this leak highlights the PS5 Pro’s GPU, supposedly reaching 16.7 teraflops, coupled with 16GB of dedicated GDDR6 VRAM, offering a significant leap over the base model which shares memory between the CPU and GPU. Additionally, it seems the Pro will offer 2GB of DDR5 RAM for the system, marking a shift from the previous unified memory design seen in earlier models.
The original PlayStation 5 was released back in November 2020, and four years on, gamers are more excited than ever for the Pro version. Even as Sony ventures into its second mid-generation “Pro” upgrade without any corresponding move from Xbox, it seems like a savvy choice for those who aren’t eyeing a shift to PC gaming. Early benchmarks of PSSR image enhancements and real-time ray tracing capabilities show a promising step forward.
