The PS5 Pro video that detailed the specs as obtained by Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Developer Network and published by YouTuber Moore’s Law is Dead has now been taken down by Sony.
As spotted by The Verge’s Tom Warren who has this week published two seperate stories going into the nitty gritty details about the PS5 Pro and its new Ultra Boost most, the video that originally showed off the specs of the PS5 Pro now reads ““is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Sony Interactive Entertainment”

Obviously, normally where there’s smoke, there’s fire, and things only normally get taken down when they’re factually correct, and quite frankly there’s far too much legitimate information about the PS5 Pro on the internet at this point to not believe that it’s coming this year, but this just adds to that equation.
In another report by Tom Warren, he went into a new Ultra-Boost mode which will live in addition to the ‘PS5 Pro Enhanced’ mode. This will be to help games that run with a variable resolution run at a higher resolution and games with VRR support run at a higher frame rate.
The original documents gave us our first proper look at what type of performance the PS5 Pro might deliver. The PS5 Pro will apparently have 33.5 teraflops of computing power compared to the 10.28 currently available in the PS5.
It’s also said that the PS5 Pro will offer up to 4x the ray-tracing performance of the PS5. As it’s been previously reported, the PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) will be featured bringing image upscaling similar to NVIIA DLSS, which is said to help Sony achieve 8K resolution in performance mode.
PS5 PRO RUMOURED SPECS:
- Rendering 45% faster than PS5
- 2-3x Ray-tracing (x4 in some cases)
- 33.5 Teraflops
- PSSR (PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution Upscaling) upscaling/antialiasing solution
- Support for resolutions up to 8K is planned for future SDK version
- Custom machine learning architecture
- AI Accelerator, supporting 300 TOPS of 8 bit computation / 67 TFLOPS of 16-bit floating point
