what in the fuck is '8k performance mode' lmao


This is the dumbest, fakest "rumor" I've read yet. Does Tom Henderson have any history of successful leaks?

as per ERA it means 60 CU's. 2 X of current ps5

PS5 has 36 CUs. 2x would be 72.

This is looking like a 1.5x boost to graphics. Not the 2.3x boost we got with the PS4 Pro. Lets hope higher clocks and better RDNA3 RT performance gets them close to 2x.

Bro even PS5 is slow for RDNA 2 Standards we are talking about a Architecture with run at 2.5ghz with ease.

I know that, it's just weird that Xbox locked the X at 1,8 when they could've gone way higher
But remember in 2020 when everyone was saying that the PS5 was overclocked because sony was panicking

Ray Tracing ruined gaming
We are now halving the FPS to have ray tracing

It can look really good in games that properly use it. So far that has been in Metro and Cyberpunk, lol.

Edit : Main thing i wish that you would have similar options to turn RTX off on consoles in same manner as on PCs. But that's on devs to provide.

A lot of folks would take better image quality with 60fps (or 40 to 60 with VRR) and have RTX off.

I wonder what reconstructing an 8k image would look like. Starting with 4k (or close to it) and reconstructing that to 8k must provide an insanely clean picture, because that is a lot of fidelity to start with.

Yes. He pretty much has a 100% track record at the moment.

If it's by Tom or Schreier, it is pretty much a guaranteed thing.

Curious to see performance gains. Seems like less of jump in comparison to PS4 to PS4 Pro.

Considering the current PS5 price, I wonder if it will be around 799$ or 699$.

We don't need native 4K. Waste. Of. Resources. 1440p/1800p reconstruction is plenty fine.

Especially when every PC gamer uses DLSS/FSR/XeSS, so why are we always falling back on the "native train" when it comes to consoles?

Because that $500 box needs to work miracles dammit
 
I wonder if that's 60 active CUs or total? Most likely this ends up being 56 CU active.

If clock speeds stay the same then expect ~17Tflops, 19Tflops at 2.5Ghz.

Raster performance will be 50-60% over PS5 + improvements to memory/clock speeds, upgrade to RDNA3 dual issue SIMD, and whatever features Sony picks up from RDNA4.

Modest improvement overall, and this doesn't sound like a $600 box. More likely this ends up at $500 and supports the disc drive add on from the slim.
 
That 8K stuff makes it sound like bullshit. Unless the PS5 Pro is substantially more powerful (in which case, the jump from PS5 Pro to PS6 is gonna be even smaller than the jump from PS4 Pro to PS5 or the PS6 is gonna be ridiculously more powerful, in which case it will also be far more expensive).

Doubling CU count does not double performance. The more CUs you add beyond a point, the the performance of each of those CUs gets cut.

Memory bandwidth, IPC gains per clock (and clock speeds) (maybe higher or added cache) are how you boost the performance ratio higher than just slapping on CUs.

Sony probably gonna have a big showcase game for the Trinity like horizon zero dawn was for ps4 pro, so launch would be:
* 2 Ghost 2 Tsushima or SSM big new ip.
*ND will probably release tlou part 2 remake.
* Bungie's Marathon
* Platformer either Astrobot or another Sackboy

In addition to of course a select handful of patched games.

It's mostly about trade-offs tbh. AMD ip is flexible as Fuck, PS4 pro was a Frankestein of GCN4 and Polaris.

Yep, seems you're spot on.

We pretty much know that the new "optional disc" PS5 will retail at $399. At that point, there won't be a $499 variant for PS5. They will likely introduce the Pro at $499 next year -- which seems very much doable.
 
I don't believe this at all lol. People have been rumoring a Switch Pro for years too. Any day now, right?

I see better results and less taxing on the hardware with nanite
 
I'm glad that PS5s weren't on store shelves for the first 2 years of its life causing me to hold out on getting one in anticipation of the Pro Gamer model, because if I had a regular Poor Person PS5 I would literally be punching the air right now.
 
People are too much focus on the hardware specs. Just remember the difference between PS4 and PS4pro.

Just saw that he actually retweeted the article, which makes this much more interesting than I initially thought.

8k performance mode it is, then! I guess the PS5 is going to have a card twice as fast as an RTX 4090 in it 🤷‍♂️

I do not own a tv that can even do HDR or above 1080P, so this graphics debate is pointless to me. I just want stable performance and big brained AI.

O fuck off with that 8k bullshit

The RT is equal bullshittery. FFS the latest AMD cards can't do RT well. That said I could see Sony slapping together some shitty upgrade, adding bullet points for 8K and RT on the box, pricing it so that it is profitable and targeting the clowns that paid 1k for their PS5s.
 
the PlayStation 5 Pro will be targeting improved and consistent FPS at 4K resolution, a new 'performance mode' for 8K resolution, and accelerated ray tracing

Strong marketing talk, but it's going to be based off a preexisting AMD card.

Don't fixate on that 8K too much. I don't know why nobody ever learns. It's just marketing.

I don't know what happens to people's brains when it comes to the console spec leaks, but they somehow hold them to different standards that the DLSS loving PCs when it comes to consoles and "native res."

All of a sudden we forget about DLSS/FSR/XeSS and that the graphics cards makers do the same marketing (and we accept it) when they state "DLSS 4K." No, it's not native, it reconstructed/upscaled like every other solution. But when it comes to consoles, people's brains break ... again.

Native is a waste, and it's a regressive argument that seems to take over these threads when there are some who constantly fixate on it when it comes to console spec discussions. Comes off as disingenuous when everyone and their mother is fellating DLSS on the PC.

8k performance mode sounds extremely strange, possibly a mixup or misinterpretation. I can see the whole "4k, consistent framerates" being a performance mode but 8k? Not gonna happen, unless Sony has some crazy ass upscale tech they incorporated. Not out of the realm of possibility but I'll go with it being some mixup or miscommunication.

Yes, I got my PS5 launch day.

I am punching the air right now. How could they do this to ME!?!?!
