While the PlayStation 5 Pro CPU is said to offer minimal improvements over the base model, it could bring more enhancements than anticipated.
In a new video shared this week, Moore's Law is Dead, who revealed additional information on the yet-to-be-revealed mid-generation refresh console, provided some small new updates on the system as well as on the PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution upscaler. According to the leaker, the console's Zen 2 CPU will be a 4nm CPU, which will be denser and potentially provide additional improvements over the base model's processor, such as reduced power consumption, better cost efficiency, and smaller form factor. As such, the system could also be smaller than the base model and the "Slim" revision launched last year. Speaking about the system's price, Moore's Law is Dead revealed that the system could fit in the 500$ price tag if Sony wants to.

As mentioned above, the leaker also provided some new information on the PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution upscale, which will debut with the PlayStation 5 Pro. Apparently, PSSR is not a fork of the upcoming AMD FSR 4 upscaler and has been completely developed by Sony. As such, it will be very interesting to see if it will be a much better solution compared to AMD's upscaler, especially on consoles where the superior NVIDIA DLSS is not available.
The PlayStation 5 Pro is rumored to release in late 2024, so an official reveal shouldn't be too far off. We will keep you updated on the system as soon as more come in on it, so stay tuned for all the latest news.

PS5 Pro specs have been the subject of numerous leaks over recent months, and the last couple of weeks in particular have shed a great deal of light on alleged details on the rumoured mid-gen console refresh. But with supposed enhancements like its proprietary supersampling tech dubbed PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution Upscaling (or PSSR), 45 percent faster rendering, and more, how exactly is Sony hoping developers will take advantage of the console’s more powerful hardware?
To receive a PlayStation 5 Pro label called Trinity Enhanced, games must feature a Pro-exclusive display mode that will deliver 4K resolution and costant 60 frames per second.
There is mounting evidence that Sony is preparing to release a more powerful PlayStation 5 model, and sooner than you might think. Analysts have confidently predicted the new machine will launch at the end of 2024, while a series of leaks detailing its specs — sourced from official Sony documentation distributed to developers — gives us an idea of how big an upgrade it will be. The strategy seems very similar to that followed by both Sony and Microsoft one console generation ago with the release of PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X: deluxe versions of their console platforms with upgraded specs, released in the middle of the console generation.
Tech analysts at Digital Foundry have examined leaked specs of the upcoming PlayStation 5 Pro and shed light on its potential performance with highly anticipated titles like GTA 6. The upgraded console, rumoured for a late 2024 release, boasts significant improvements over its predecessor.
The days of developers pushing for native resolutions feel like they’re coming to an end. The reality is that it’s a waste of resources, especially as upscalers like DLSS (or Deep Learning Super Sampling, to give it its full name) get better and better. It’s no surprise Sony is exploring similar technology with PS5 Pro, and it looks like this is all part of a long-term plan which will eventually expand to PS6 as well.
Sony's own upscaling tech for the rumored PlayStation 5 Pro - PS5 Pro PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) - is said to offer vastly improved image quality for current PS5 titles.
Sony is reportedly undertaking an internal investigation to determine how exactly the specs for Trinity, the codename by which the colloquially-named PS5 Pro is internally known, leaked so entirely over the weekend. The incident occurred during a third-party developer rollout, and while we may never learn the culprit's identity, there will undoubtedly be additional security ramifications for other third-party devs moving forward.
According to all rumours and reports, Sony is working on its own reconstruction technology similar to DLSS, or Deep Learning Super Sampling. The feature, named PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution according to Insider Gaming, seems like a long-term play by the platform holder, with the first iteration planned for the PS5 Pro.
The heavily rumoured PS5 Pro will feature a GPU (graphics processing unit) up to three times faster than the PS5 model currently available, it's been claimed. Insider Gaming and YouTuber Moore's Law is Dead state PS5 Pro documents were posted to Sony's developer portal, and screenshots have been shared with them that suggest the upgraded console will deliver significant improvements over the original system.
Sony is indeed working on a more advanced version of the PlayStation 5 that could feature a more powerful GPU that’s potentially up to three times faster for specific tasks compared to current PS5 models.
