Unless PSSR is exclusively using dual-issue-able instructions (doubtful) and makes zero consumption of RAM and cache bandwidth (impossible), this statement makes no sense.

The new WMMA engine may be able to run PSSR very fast on the shader processors, but claiming it's free thanks to 16.7 TFLOPs of 2nd-issued instructions is science fiction.

Sony chose to declare 16.7 TFLOPs because the dual-issue feature supports very few instructions, and the impact in gaming performance is pretty much irrelevant. AMD chose to use the dual-issue TFLOPs numbers because Nvidia does it too, and they can be useful for some desktop compute workloads.
For Sony, people seeing 3x higher compute throughput would probably make them wonder why the PS5 Pro isn't much faster than it really is, but now they don't need to give that explanation.

The copium suppliers are cutting them off cold turkey, they only the ugly console narrative left.


"PS has announced the list of 55 games, which are enhanced for ps5 pro. But I don't feel the need to go over that since...

Tom(warren): Meine Fuhre
Meine Fuhre the list, the list contains black ops 6.

Everyone leave, except for Tom (warren), Tom (henderson), Jezz Cordon, Colteastwood.

Ich habbe That Noch Gezegd, launching midgen refresh at Launch.

Alles ist Voorbij, the krieg is verlooren

I can't imagine how anyone can choose xbox nowadays.... like why limit your fun.
It's like "for 500$ you can get a good car or this piece of trash" and they get the trash and swear by it
People still buy stellantis vehicles despite 40+ years of being trash

Well I was getting a car and decided on KIA. Who the fuck looks at his savings and says "yeah I will get a KIA and not a bmw or honda"
yeah that's me so I cannot say I am better than stellantis fools :D

I don't disagree with a single word that they're saying because they're right. PS4 Pro was more impressive than what the PS5 Pro will be because last generation, it introduced 4K, visuals/performance modes and HDR where as this generation, it's more about their upscaling tech. The games will obviously be better visually but will it wow people who already own a PS5? Probably not. Last generation, playing Horizon Zero Dawn with HDR is what made the console stand out and worth the purchase. This generation, mid-gen was never needed especially when they probably haven't even hit 25% of what the base model can do. It's why the best most impressive games are always the last year or two of the generation.
