PS5 Pro Specs are Revealed, Releases on this date
PS5 Pro Specs are leaked by Moore's Law Is Dead and provide in a video documentation about Project Trinity, code-named for "PlayStation 5 Pro" and it is an improved version of PlayStation 5 that has been talked about for months.
On this occasion, the information provided is accompanied by documentation supported by Insidergaming stating that it comes from a PlayStation developer portal and was sent this week to a "wider group of external developers."
PlayStation 5 Pro Specs Revealed
The ability of PlayStation 5 Pro to render graphics would be 45 percent faster than the current model and in the Trinity ray layout it would use a more powerful architecture that would allow it to double or triple the ray speed of the standard PS5 and could even quadruple it in some cases. According to these specifications, Trinity would have 33.5 teraflops, leaving the 12 Xbox Series X teraflops small.
The AI accelerator would have 300 TOPS 8-bit / 62 TFLOPS floating point computing of 16-bit, with a custom architecture for machine learning that would serve for the climbing and antialiasing of PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), with similar effects to Nvidia's DLSS and AMD's FSR. Sony even claims that PSSR's capabilities outperform FSR2. It will certainly be a technology that will be talked about in the coming months.
This re-escalation technology would certainly be one of the keys to PlayStation 5 Pro by getting images with much more resolution very quickly (in just 2 milliseconds it can go from 1080p to 2160p) and using few resources (just 250 MB of memory) of the console to reach 4K or even 8K in future versions of the SDK. With PSSR you wouldn't have to train AI with each game, as is necessary with DLSS.
Specs summary
- 45% faster rendering than PS5
- 2-3x Ray-tracing (x4 in some cases)
- PSSR - PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution Upscaling.
- Support for resolutions up to 8K is planned for future SDK version.
- AI Accelerator, supporting 300 TOPS of 8 bit computation / 67 TFLOPS of 16-bit floating point.
Is it worth a upgrade from PS5?
PS5 Pro Expected Release Date
Insidergaming says PlayStation studios have the PlayStation 5 Pro development kit since September 2023 and for other studios since January 2024, or they will arrive in spring, from where the page deduces that Sony will try to pull out the new console model for this Christmas.
Although it may not be the case in the absence of Sony's own games for this year. What has been said is that this release will take place before Grand Theft Auto VI comes out in order to take advantage of the momentum of Rockstar's new game.
