Tom Warren’s previews on the PS5 PRO graphics presets are just the latest rumors in a long series of rumors and leaks that are circulating with ever greater insistence on the mid-gen model of PlayStation 5, especially with regards to hardware specifications.
The Verge journalist has thus enriched with content a discussion that was already involving many enthusiasts and various industry professionals, just think of Digital Foundry’s confirmations on the specific PS5 PRO leaks and the reflections of the well-known collective of ‘techno-gaming experts’ regarding the actual performance boost we should expect from this platform.
The statements made on social media by the same editorialist of The Verge must therefore be added to DF’s assessments, with Tom Warren who believes he can state with relative certainty that the advances leaked on the hardware components of the new PlayStation 5 model they are absolutely truthful. Starting from this last assumption, let’s therefore try to draw up the updated list of PS5 PRO leak specifications:
PS5 PRO – hardware specifications leak (updated April 2024)
- Processor: AMD custom Zen 2 CPU (8 cores and 16 threads) at 3.5 GHz, with high frequency mode at 3.85 GHz for PS5 PRO ‘Enhanced’ gaming
- GPU: RDNA 3 architecture with 60 CU and 33.5 TF, 2.18 GHz clock speed
- RAM: 16 GB at 18 Gbps, with 13.7 GB accessible to developers and 256-bit bandwidth at 576 GB/s
For a quick comparison with today’s family of Sony systems, here are the official specifications of the ‘base’ models of PlayStation 5 (as well as PS5 Slim) currently on the market:

If we want to listen to the specific leaks of PS5 PRO, consequently, we should not witness a real generational leap compared to PlayStation 5 but a ‘simple’ increase in performance which will translate into a higher and more stable frameratein a increase in resolution and in an enhancement of real-time lighting, shadows and reflections effects managed in Ray Tracingwith developers called upon to decide in full autonomy how to fully exploit the new resources and features offered by the mid-gen console.
Always according to the previews of the most accredited sources, the real strong point of PS5 PRO will be the PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR), i.e. the ‘intelligent’ upscaling and upsampling system that Sony has developed taking inspiration from similar solutions such as FSR, DLSS and XeSS.
