Focus on fast storage, accelerated ray tracing, and 16GB DDR6 memory. Potential early launch in September 2024, earlier than previous rumours. Rumours about the PlayStation 5 Pro, a speculated mid-cycle hardware update for Sony's current gaming console, have been circulating for some time. However, there have been some new leaks on the ResetEra forums that have shed light on what could be the upcoming specifications for the PS5 Pro. PS5 Pro: Leaked Speculations and Features PS5 Pro: Leaked Speculations & Features GPU: The PS5 Pro is rumoured to feature a new GPU codenamed Viola, based on TSMC’s 4NP process node. It targets a 2GHz frequency, using AMD RDNA3 architecture with 30WGPs, though retail units might get 28WGPs. CPU: The CPU is expected to continue with the AMD Zen 2 architecture, achieving a peak frequency of 4.4GHz. Technologies: Sony seems to be focusing on fast storage, accelerated ray tracing, and upscaling technologies. This is evident from the speculated inclusion of 16GB DDR6 memory with 576GB/s bandwidth. Performance: The primary goal for the PS5 Pro appears to be stable upscaled 4K output at over 30fps. Launch Timeline: While previous rumours suggested a November 2024 launch, the new leak points to a potential September 2024 release. Tom Henderson of Insider Gaming, when asked about the leak's accuracy, stated he couldn't comment on other people's leaks. However, he noted that Sony might expect full specifications to be leaked soon due to dev kit distributions to third-party studios. So that does mean that the PS5 Pro is likely coming sooner rather than later. The improved hardware might just put it close to high-end PCs in terms of graphical output, although that remains to be seen. Of course, as of now, Sony has not officially acknowledged the existence of the PS5 Pro. The company's silence on this matter is not unusual, considering how the PS4 Pro just dropped out of the blue. Perhaps, Microsoft’s innovations on a new version of the Xbox Series X, might accelerate Sony’s efforts.
