That’s despite the fact that a PlayStation 5 Pro will go on sale in the next few months sony It hasn’t announced yet, and data has begun to circulate within this framework that may or may not be as accurate as some think. And now, the alleged specifications have been made known on social networks, therefore, the networks are flooded with data that may indicate that we will also have new consoles for this year.
The device is said to feature a custom eight-core Gen 2 CPU, potentially double Tempest Engine performance, two shading engines, and an expandable SSD hard drive. The rumor was spread by a leaker known as Tom Henderson, who also claimed that Sony was working on a slimmer PS5 model, which has finally turned out to be true. So, things can be more real than you think.
Also, on the forum Reset era, the device is said to be released in September next year. Earlier this January, leaker @Kepler_L2 suggested that the CPU upgrade is quite small compared to the current one PS5, and the new ResetEra user information has some additional details. As per the Pro model, it will retain the Zen2 architecture used in the current model, albeit with a higher maximum dynamic frequency.
This information was also provided:
– 16 GB of 18 Gbps GDDR6. 256-bit memory bus with 576 GB/s memory bandwidth.
– GPU frequency target is 2.0 GHz. This puts dual-cast TFLOPs in the range of 28.67 peak TFLOPs (224 (TMU) * 2 (ops, dual-cast) * 2 (center clock)). 14.33 TFLOP if we ignore the double issue factor.
– 50 to 60% increase in rasterization compared to Oberon and Oberon Plus, more than doubling raw RT performance.
– The XDNA2 NPU will be introduced to accelerate Sony’s custom temporal machine learning enhancement technique. This will be one of the main focuses of the PS5 Pro, as we saw with the checkerboard rendering for the PS4 Pro. The goal is a higher 4K output temporally stable at 30+ FPS
These are all rumors for now, so we have to wait for an official statement from our side sony.

Editor’s note: I don’t think there’s a need to have a PS5 for the moment, since there aren’t many games on the market that are really worth it, unless they’re thinking about the future, but they’ve already established that they can’t even rule out the market. For sure it will sell, but this year I really don’t think so.
