The 'PS5 Pro is technically for me' Thread - PlayStation 5 (PS5) Forum

I'd quite like there to be a thread where we can actually discuss the ins and outs of it in a kind of neutral way, a personal way, or even in a technical way. And by this I mean away from all the price talk as there's plenty of other places we can kick up a fuss about that. And also away from statements about whether or not it is "needed" whatever that means. So instead of stating things like "it is so needed" or "it is so not needed" which doesn't really get anyone anywhere 😛 I'd like to hear more about whether it is for you, and if so why? (if that makes sense) Of course, if it isn't for you, that is fair enough, and if you do want to join in keep it about why it technically isn't for you, rather than any pricing, value, need talk. I.e "I'm not really that bothered about frame rate/fidelity in games, I just like the games" which is an admirable reason, as great games are great games regardless of generation. And I do kind of wish I still fell in to that category myself. So there we go. Is the PS5 Pro for you, and if so, what is it about this current generation, or the PS5 Pro itself, that makes it 'for you'?

We just have to hope that the ever so meme-able Mark Cerny has unlocked some kind of new power within Sony and AMD's project amethyst. They may have been behind the 8-ball on upscaling and RT for a while, but with Cerny by their side, they may just get the knack.

@Ravix 🤣 well they’ve already made a huge leap forward with FSR4 to decrease NVIDIA’s lead with DLSS. My two cents… I kinda think that NVIDIA will always have their nose in front though.

Anyways, Steams own user survey results show that 72% of PC gamers are gaming on equipment less powerful that the impending Gabecube… which in turn is around the same power as a base PS5 and is rumoured to cost a lot more. So… the amount of PC gamers using rigs less powerful than a Pro is even higher than 72% (not worth guessing that figure without further info). Therefore, what people can get at the moment for £569.99 is simply an incredible deal.
