At the end of last week, some of the characteristics of the upcoming PlayStation 5 Pro game console are known. Now Insider Gaming has added some new details about this device.
In addition to the performance characteristics of the graphics subsystem, this time we are talking about the system memory, which will also receive greater performance. If the memory bandwidth of the standard version of PlayStation 5 is 448 GB/s (14 GT/s), then in the case of PlayStation 5 Pro – 576 GB/s (18 GT/s). The speed increase is 28% compared to the standard console. It is also emphasized that the system memory of the PlayStation 5 Pro is more efficient than that of the standard console, so the increase in bandwidth can increase by more than 28%.
The processor, all things considered, is identical to the standard PlayStation 5 model. However, the PlayStation 5 Pro model has a High CPU Frequency Mode. When it is activated, the CPU frequency increases to 3.85 GHz — by 10% compared to a regular console. Because in High CPU Frequency Mode, more power is used by the CPU, the GPU frequency is reduced by about 1.5%, resulting in a decrease in GPU performance of about 1%.
PlayStation 5 Pro’s ACV runs at a higher clock frequency than the standard PlayStation 5, giving the ACM library 35% more performance.
In addition, to make the PlayStation 5 Pro as “competitive” as possible, it will have a removable disk drive identical to the latest iteration of the standard PlayStation 5, as well as a 1 TB storage capacity.
The PlayStation 5 Pro is currently running on SKD 9:00 and SKD 10:00 is expected to be released in Fall 2024, which is the console’s current planned release date.
