Despite not launching for another four days, an unboxing video and official specs of the PS5 Pro have surfaced online. The Pro console gets an upgrade with its GPU boasting 16.7 TFLOPs compared to the PS5’s 10.28.

Why it matters: PS5 Pro is supposed to release on November 7. However, it seems that some people have already received early units a few days before the official launch. 

An X user, brunno_fast, has his hands on the PS5 Pro and has even revealed the console’s spec sheet. It features an 8-core Zen 2 CPU paired with 16GB GDDR6 memory and a 2TB SSD, which was already confirmed. 

While most of the specs are borrowed from its predecessor, the PS5 Pro does boast additional graphical power. The GPU has been upgraded, but it’s still nowhere near the 36 TFLOPs that the rumors claimed it would feature. 

PlayStation stated that the Pro console will be 45% faster than the previous one. It also adds support for PSSR, which is PlayStatiion’s answer to Nvidia’s DLSS, AMD’s FSR, and Intel XeSS AI upscaling tools. 

But, from the testing we’ve seen so far, there doesn’t seem to be too huge of a performance difference. Even the company CEO recently stated that it isn’t a next-gen console, so manage your expectations. 

Nonetheless, the PS5 Pro is now the most powerful console in the world and will likely be the best place to experience most next-gen. Even developers have praised it for how convenient it is to develop games. 

PS5 Pro officially releases on November 7, 2024. What are your thoughts on the PS5 Pro specs? Are you going to buy the console? Let us know in the comments or join the discussion at the official Tech4Gamers Forum.
