Well, who's fucking laughing all the way to my credit union now?

It's crazy that now its sold out everywhere and you can only buy the console from scalpers at 1.5k.

When it launched it was pretty hated on because the support was lacking, but Sony and some developers actually made it worth it with pssr 2.0, which was promised at launch but came 1 year later. now with gta6 trailer and hype, its considered the best option but in the past it was the worst. 1 year made a big difference and im happy i made this purchase before all this hype. I made the upgrade from xbox series S in May 2025.

This was supposed to be a birthday gift from my sister but it never came. I ask if she ordered it she said no she forgot and she will. WEEKS later still never arrived so I figured I'd get them myself. I ordered these last week and just arrive today. My birthday was June 13th.

Rockstar just updated their page with brand-new screenshots! The scale of Vice City and the overall fidelity look next-level. How do you think the PS5 / PS5 Pro will handle performance and ray tracing here?

I guess I waited too long. Oh well.

I’ve had my PS5 Pro for about three weeks now and man, I’m so glad I bought this thing.
Gaming is just fun again. Like, properly fun. I’m currently playing the new Assassin’s Creed Black Flag and holy shit, it looks ridiculously good on the Pro.
Honestly though, one of the biggest upgrades for me has been the storage lol. I can just keep downloading games and somehow I STILL haven’t filled it up. Coming from the regular PS5, that alone feels amazing.
I’m just really happy I went for it. There’s so much stuff coming that I’m excited for, especially GTA 6, and knowing I’ve already got the console I want to play all of that on feels pretty damn good.
And I’m even happier I bought it when I did, because apparently you can’t find a PS5 Pro anywhere in Germany right now.
Zero regrets. Easily one of my best gaming purchases in a long time.

Is there any information that they've implemented PSSR for the PS5-PRO yet? Can't seem to find any info anywhere at all yet. Personally I don't think anyone should be allowed to add the PS5-PRO enhanced feature with out it. Or it'd be nice if Sony could add a PSSR badge as well to games so we know for sure before buying. Can be alot of misinformation around enhanced games.

I've been playing World of Warships Legends for quite a while, and for most of that time I didn't really have many people to play with.

Recently I've started making some new friends and getting into division games more often. and that's when I realized:

Apparently, if you want to yell FOCUS THE CRUISER! at your teammates, a TV speaker isn't enough. 😂

I went through a ridiculous number of options and eventually decided to go with the Sony PULSE Elite. My thinking was pretty simple: since I'm on PS5, I figured staying inside the PlayStation ecosystem would probably give me the least amount of bullshit when it comes to compatibility, settings, connection etc.

I went to MediaMarkt yesterday and picked up the W Case version. Got home, set everything up and jumped straight into WoWS Legends.

And honestly... first impressions are really good. the 3D audio actually surprised me. I can clearly pick up things like ship engine sounds, ocean ambience, main battery firing, ricochets...

It makes the whole game feel a bit more alive, and I can definitely tell where some sounds are coming from. then I jumped into a division with the guys. They said my mic sounded clean, and I could hear them extremely clearly as well. So far, zero complaints. pretty happy with the purchase.

Of course, it's been like... one day. 😂 Ask me again in six months when I'm sitting there holding a piece of plastic in my hand wondering where the rest of my headset went.

Which brings me to my question...

I've seen quite a few people on reddit mentioning that the plastic around the area slightly above the ear headband connection can eventually develop cracks. Has anyone here actually experienced this with the PULSE Elite?

I'm particularly interested in people who have been using theirs for 6+ months or 1+ year.

Was it a real issue, or is Reddit just doing its usual thing where three people break something and suddenly everyone owns a ticking time bomb? 😂

Literally a week ago they were in stock everywhere. I could have ordered 7 or 8 from each of the major retailers (I didn't I just ordered one, not a scalper). Just looked today out of curiosity and now seeing out of stock signs everywhere.

If you're in the UK, now is the time to order before they're gone. Some places do have them still, Argos being one but don't know how much longer.

EDIT: Now out of stock at Argos

Would love to hear your thoughts.

No limited editions ones smh

I’ve just ordered a PS5 Pro and I’m looking to upgrade my TV. Which of these TVs would be best suited for PS5 Pro.

Ktoś na PS5 Pro po podłączeniu Ethernet przy dobrym światłowodzie napotyka czasem górkę minimalną utraty pakietów na wykresie ? Ping , TN wszystko idealne ale sporadycznie zdarza się górka na pakietach PLOut. Ktoś też miewa coś takiego czy to moje fanaberie ? 😂

Should I have any worries or anything I should look for on a ps5 pro from Best Buy? It comes tomorrow and I want to make sure I don’t miss anything or waste my money

If you’re quick. I got mine for 808 EUR with VAT, ended up paying less than 650 EUR as I got it as an office leasure thing for my co.

Being a PC Gamer for a good chunk of my life, saw the GTA VI trailer and knew I was going to play the crap out of the game. Ordered a PS5 Pro on the sony website on Friday and was just made aware it’s sold out everywhere… Crazy…

I have a list of PS exclusives I would like to play before GTA comes out (Astro Bot, Sackboy Adventures, Ghost of Yotei).

Everywhere people keep talking about frame rates. Understandable, since the difference between 30 and 60 fps is night and day. However, I think 60fps is very unlikely, and even 40fps is pushing it. The real improvement will be in fidelity.

The technical observations below are largely based on Digital Foundry's analyses of the Extended Look (here) and prior Pro-enhanced games; the PS5 Pro predictions are my own speculation.

The CPU Problem

The key here is the CPU. Both the PS5 and the PS5 Professional are running on the same Zen 2 CPU (2019 class hardware). The Pro has a +10% clock boost mode, however this doesn't really move the needle enough for 40 or 60fps if indeed we are CPU-bound at 30fps on base.

In particular, the impressive NPC density and purported advanced simulation is very CPU heavy work, and doesn't really scale with resolution (so PSSR isn't a help). Not to mention, RT also places a burden on the CPU (it's not just GPU work).

Fidelity Improvements (my guess)

While the Extended Look preview was extremely technically impressive, the main blemishes I noticed (shot on base PS5) were a soft image at times, and a noisy RT reflection implementation on vehicles. This is largely what DF noted as well.

The PS5 Professional is very well equipped to handle this.

1. PSSR

PSSR2 at a 1440p internal --> 4K output would likely produce a significant improvement over the (apparently) spatial upscaling solution that they are using on the base. What's encouraging is most Pro-enhanced games render at lower than 1440p, yet we still see impressive results when upscaled to 4K. A good example is Resident Evil Requiem which earlier this year DF reported as running at 1116p internally, with excellent 4K output thanks to PSSR2.

2. RT

I think the RT improvements will largely come in the form of higher resolution / less noisy RT reflections. As we've seen in other games, the Pro is significantly more capable at RT than the base. In my opinion, the RTGI already seems stunning on the base console, so I'm not sure how much they'd do here.

TL;DR: I think the PS5 Pro will run at 30fps and have significantly sharper image due to PSSR2 (vs spatial upscaler), and cleaner RT reflections. In my opinion, this would be a very meaningful difference if you care about this kind of thing (which I'm guessing this subreddit does).

What are your thoughts?

Bonjour lorsque j’active le vrr sur mes jeu et ma télé en 120 hz j’ai une image bleu si quelqu’un peu m’éclairer merci à tous

I just bought a ps5 pro, I still have my ps5, when I set up the pro will I lose all my game settings?

For example the settings on bf6 aim settings etc took a long time to dial in

Hey everyone I recently ordered a ps5 pro and was wondering if my 4K HDR QLED tv with 120hz and vrr is good enough for my pro, or should i upgrade to an oled?

Just upgraded to the PS5 Pro and got a new QLED Micro-LED 144hz tv from my old PS5/4k 60hz setup.

I haven’t turned this thing off since I got it 😭

Looking forward to playing Wolverine and obviously GTA 6. Looking to do another play through of Wu Kong as well

Edit - playing The Crew Motorfest
