Sony PlayStation 5 Pro will really be able to provide full-fledged gaming in 4K/60fps? This should be helped by new upscale technology

And triple the GPU performance

The announcement of the Sony PlayStation 5 Pro game console is expected this fall. The author of the Moore's Law Is Dead channel shared new data about this console, which shows that it will be more different from the regular PS5 than the PS4 Pro was from the PS4 at one time. 

This doesn’t even apply to «hardware» itself, but a new technology for increasing resolution. It's called PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) and relies on machine learning. The image quality should supposedly be higher than that of FSR2. The new technology will allow you to increase resolution up to 8K, and upscale from Full HD to 4K will take 2 ms. The PSSR library will occupy only 250 MB, and integration of the technology into games will not require any specific actions. 

The performance of the PS5 Pro (FP32) is rated at 33.5 TFLOPS, which is three times that of the PS5. As we know, TFLOPS performance alone means little for games, but let us remind you that the original PS5 is roughly comparable in performance to cards such as the Radeon RX 6700 or GeForce RTX 4060, although a lot depends on the game and the ideal there is no standard.

Thus, if the performance of the PS5 is simply multiplied by three, that is, the conditional RTX 4060 is multiplied by three, you will get something close to the performance of the RTX 4080/4090, but, of course, such mathematics will not work in reality . However, the performance of the PS5 Pro, if the specifications are correct, will be very high compared to modern video cards. Possibly the highest in PlayStation history. And the new upscale technology should make the console even more attractive to gamers.
