PlayStation 5 Pro tipped to perform on par with a mid-range Radeon RX 7000 graphics card

Earlier this year, leaked PlayStation 5 Pro specifications talked about a remarkable increase in GPU power and a transition to AMD's RDNA 3 architecture. Not only does it up the WGP (work group processors), but also includes some raytracing features from next year's RDNA 4 GPUs. Performance-wise, it will be equivalent to a mid-range RDNA 3 GPU.

Noted X leaker @Kepler_L2 says the PlayStation 5 Pro's GPU will perform on par with an AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT in rasterization. Its raytracing performance will be better thanks to the above mentioned features. Our in-depth Radeon RX 7700 XT review determined it could run most games at 4K 60, but not all. Of course, this isn't a fair comparison because PC and consoles are fundamentally different.

Unfortunately, the PlayStation 5 Pro might get bottlenecked by its aging Zen 2 CPU, which has only received a marginal change over its non-pro counterpart. Sony's in-house upscaling solution, PlayStation Super Resolution (PSSR), will have to pick up the slack to make games run at 4K 120 FPS and earn the PlayStation 5 Pro Enhanced tag. Either way, we should know for sure on September 9 when Sony will supposedly unveil it.

The above is the detailed content of PlayStation 5 Pro tipped to perform on par with a mid-range Radeon RX 7000 graphics card. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
