As a seasoned gamer with a keen eye for technology and a soft spot for Sony consoles, I must admit that the PlayStation 5 Pro has piqued my interest. With my trusty 4K TV at home, the prospect of upgrading to an 8K resolution is tantalizing, even if it’s just for screenshots right now.
The initial users of the Sony’s latest gaming console, PlayStation 5 Pro, have uncovered some fascinating aspects about its performance. It appears that this console does indeed offer 8K resolution support, but there seems to be a catch – it seems we may only be able to capture high-quality screenshots in 8K.
Currently, there are 4 titles on the list offering such a display mode:
- Gran Turismo 7 (limited to 30 frames per second),
- EA Sports F1 24,
- Rogue Flight
- The Touryst
PS5 Pro Specification
Images of the documentation accompanying the PS5 Pro have been shared online, together with early user experiences who’ve received the console ahead of its official launch. The equipment appears to be fitted with a 390-watt power supply, representing an upgrade of 40 watts compared to the standard PS5.
The disclosed details further suggest that the upcoming PS5 Pro model boasts a powerful graphics processor clocked at 16.7 teraflops, along with an extra 2GB of DDR5 RAM. This additional RAM seems designed to alleviate memory constraints for developers, much like what was done with the PS4 Pro.
Is 8K just a marketing gimmick?
There’s been discussion on forums that the 8K capability in the PS5 Pro might be more of a marketing tactic to grab attention rather than a significant improvement. This is because only a small number of users own 8K TVs, and many games struggle to run smoothly even in 4K resolution. Additionally, there’s debate about whether the ability to handle such high resolution truly represents innovation or if it’s just a marketing strategy.
8K technology, while relatively new, is yet to win over most consumers due to their skepticism. It’s possible that Sony aims to establish a foundation for future projects that can capitalize on this high resolution.
Other new features and upcoming release
Besides its 8K capabilities, PS5 Pro offers enhancements tailored for owners of PS4 games. A fresh feature called “Boost Graphics Quality” is intended to elevate the visuals in classic games, potentially employing the image scaling technology known as PSSR. This could potentially affect the resolution and clarity of the game, but the exact results might differ based on the specific title.
In a matter of mere days, on November 7th, the enhanced edition of PS5 is set to hit the market. We can’t wait for additional details, in-depth reviews, and comparative analyses showcasing its abilities, particularly focusing on games that fully leverage its capabilities.
