Rumors about the PlayStation 5 Pro are intensifying, suggesting Sony might soon reveal the upgraded console. The latest leak, shared on Monday (2) by the leaker Kepler on X (formerly Twitter), claims that the PS5 Pro will outperform the Radeon RX 7700 XT in ray tracing capabilities. Additionally, the console performs similarly to AMD’s GPU in traditional rasterization tasks.
This potential leap in ray tracing performance is attributed to the advanced architecture of the System on Chip (SoC) used in the PS5 Pro. This custom-designed component, developed in collaboration between AMD and Sony, reportedly features an integrated GPU with a hybrid architecture. This design incorporates ray tracing accelerators based on AMD’s upcoming RDNA4 architecture.
The new architecture is expected to deliver enhanced performance and efficiency. It includes a specialized engine dedicated to ray tracing, which could explain the significant boost for the PS5 Pro in this area. The PS5 Pro might set a new standard for console graphics performance if these rumors hold.
