VRR on PS5 doesn't work with 30fps games even unlocked.
It needs to be running over 48fps all the time to VRR works in the 120Hz mode.

You don't have to wait til GTA6. GTA6 running at 30 or 60 fps won't prove anything about Digital Foundry that can't be proved today.
Digital Foundry slobbered over the Switch OLED and the Steam Deck OLED despite few if any technical improvements. Their decision to slander the PS5 Pro, especially this early without knowing how effective PSSR and the raytracing features, tells you everything you need to know about them.
It's not really how it works.
Cerny essentially would have a very limited budget. If you say Oh Hi Mark, you have 100 dollars more than current production costs for the PS5 Pro, he can't simply say okay, for 100 dollars I can get GTA6 running at 60 FPS.
The PS5 Pro is probably a wishlist item for Cerny and surveyed developers both internally and externally that couldn't be put in the PS5 at the time of its launch combined with Sony's investments in AI with iSize and Audeze.
I actually think PSSR will be a bigger deal for the PS6, Cloud, and the PlayStation handheld than it will be for the PS5 Pro.
I think that is why Sony has invested in their own AI upscaling rather than just rely on FSR or even AMD's AI enhancements in the future. Unlike DLSS 3, Sony is suggesting that all games can support PSSR without specific datasets. If that's true, it's major breakthrough for AI upscaling.
This will be a major success for running all games on a PlayStation handheld and running them in the cloud at lower resolutions.
Yup. Digital Shillery's bias has been tremendously obvious for a long time now.
So from what I gather around the DF "experts" team consists of 3 Englishmen, 1 failed progessive politician turned game journalist and 2 avid forum posters.
They've never touched a line of code and their experty comes from assembling PC parts and counting pixels on the screen, also using eyes to compares 400 times zoomed-in images.
I wouldn't even trust these guys if my life is not depended on it.

That's pretty accurate. They have zero actual training and basically picked it up as laymen.

It's been obvious they just made it less pronounced when Xbox started getting smashed but we see them lol
PS5 Pro existing has nothing to do with GTA6.
It exists because they found some part of their fan base wants a better device in the middle of the generation… the experiment was already done with PS4 Pro (without a GTA release).
There is a market for Pro even if small.
But it doesn’t matter if you have a PS5 or PS5 Pro GTA6 will run and sell very well.

I mean Alex is not wrong, that's a total clown thing to say. I even addressed it here.
Tip you usually get when upgrading PC parts: spends as much as you can on the GPU.
Cerny goes and does exactly that since all games are going to be made to run on the base PS5 anyway and a much more powerful CPU wouldn't make any difference outside of the very few CPU bound games.
Once again people crucify Mark Cerny instead of giving him the benefit of the doubt despite the fact that he has proven again and again that he knows what he is doing.

Eh usually if you upgrade the CPU should you upgrade the motherboard as well, specially Intel using LGA pins meaning each upgrade require a new board.
Ryzen popularity increase negate PGA board upgrade.
Well AMD will follow suits since they also ditch PGA.
I don't get your point, for many years any non ancient 6 core CPUs has been able to play the vast majority of games at 60fps. To compare CPU people use 1080p and low settings and create extremely unrealistic scenarios.
Well I guy your point.
I mean there is nothing holding back GTA 6 from running 60fps on Pro. There is no CPU bound game, only bad CPU optimized game.
I used Sandy Bridge up all the way until 2017 when I got hooked up on DCS, upgrade CPUs every year. But that game is just barely optimized spaghetti simulation so does not matter much.
Gamea like Starfield or BG barely use all cores, if you check the graph they use only 4 threads and the rest of them barely even touched.
Games are generally bound by single threaded cpu performance. Not necessarily core count (we still have 4core cpu as the min spec on many games). That's why a zen4 7950x isn't twice as fast as a 7800x.
Well game logic are CPU bounded. Visually game still bounded by GPU.
Also games nowadays support multi-threads. You will see the different at much lower resolutions where more frames have to generate, or have many single logic objects like AIs, props...
None of that bother consoles though. If they want to achieve 60FPS they could lower individual NPCs count or use visual effects to simulate. PS5 have dedicated pipeline so why not use thay
