Amidst the ongoing buzz surrounding Sony's anticipated PlayStation 5 Pro, leaks detailing purported specifications continue to surface online. Though speculative in nature, these leaks fuel the growing discourse surrounding the potential enhancements and features of Sony's next iteration of the PS5.
In March 2023, rumors and leaks from reliable sources ignited speculation of a new version of the PlayStation 5. More recently, information surfaced about potential upgrades to this rumored PS5 Pro model that could outdo its predecessor in many ways. The leak indicated faster rendering speeds by up to 45% compared to the regular PS5's capabilities along with improved ray-tracing performance almost triple what is currently possible. Moreover, it suggested increased processing power reaching as high as 33.5 Teraflops, which may result in smoother gaming experiences and more detailed graphics.
More PS5 Pro Specs Leaked
With the PS5 entering the later stage of its life cycle, new leaks have now emerged shedding light on the PS5 Pro's system memory, CPU, and audio specifications. According to Insider Gaming, the system memory of the PS5 Pro is said to be 28% more efficient than the standard console, with a bandwidth of 576 GB/s (18GT/s) compared to the standard PlayStation 5's 448 GB/s (14 GT/s). Regarding the CPU, the PS5 Pro is expected to introduce a "High CPU Frequency Mode," which increases the CPU clock speed to 3.85GHz, marking a 10% increase over the standard console. However, activating this mode reallocates power from the GPU, resulting in a slight decrease in GPU performance.
In terms of audio, the PS5 Pro is reported to run its ACV at a higher clock speed than the standard PlayStation 5, resulting in a 35% increase in performance for the ACM library. This allows for the processing of more convolution reverbs and FFT or IFFT operations, potentially enhancing the overall audio experience. If these PS5 Pro leaks prove accurate, it spells good news for those eagerly awaiting the next iteration of Sony's PlayStation consoles. However, it's important to note that these reports are currently unverified leaks and require official confirmation before being taken as factual information.
It's noteworthy that recent reports also hint at a probable late 2024 launch for the PS5 Pro, with many analysts speculating that Sony aims to unveil the PS5 Pro before the anticipated release of GTA 6 in 2025. While GTA 6 lacks a confirmed release date, it's logical for Sony to roll out an enhanced version of its current console ahead of the arrival of next year's most awaited game.
