New PS5 Pro specs leaks suggest that in terms of performance, the upcoming mid-cycle refresh gaming console might not be a significant improvement from the already available PlayStation 5 models. The console will supposedly feature a 10% improvement in terms of CPU clock speeds and a 45% upgrade in graphics rendering performance.
The PS5 Pro console was previously believed to be a 4K gaming powerhouse. Ambitious leaked specs set it at par with high-end gaming computers capable of playing the latest titles at well over 60 FPS in UHD resolutions. That, however, will likely not be the case per the latest leaks from reliable industry insider, Tom Warren.
Do note that Sony hasn't confirmed any of these leaks and finer details of the console might change closer to launch.
The new PS5 Pro features multiple smart technologies over the original console
As per recently revealed information from Warren, the upcoming PS5 Pro console will feature a new "high CPU frequency mode" that can boost performance by supercharging the console. Instead of the base 3.5 GHz operating clock speed of the device, this mode overclocks it to 3.8 GHz, thereby unlocking extra performance. The highest operating clock speeds are 10% higher than the maximum the original console could hit.
It also unlocks an extra 1.2 GB of system memory, thus allowing games to access 13.7 GB. This should give developers some extra room to work with while developing the latest titles. The original PS5 only allowed games to use 12.5 GB of system memory at maximum.
Besides these leaks, the console will supposedly pack a new PSSR (PlayStation Super Resolution) technology. This should work much like DLSS and FSR to deliver higher framerates at minimal cost to visual quality.
Tom Warren says all the info about the new "high CPU frequency mode" is accurate and he cites "many PS5 Pro dev docs" as his source. This suggests the new PlayStation 5 would be a significant step up in more ways than one and could deliver a vast uplift in overall performance.
However, unlike the last-generation PS4 Pro, we aren't expecting a massive difference in the overall computing prowess of the console. The targets now lie in a more believable 4K 60 FPS gaming range.
