While the new system retains the same 16GB of GDDR6 memory as the standard model (albeit with more bandwidth), Sony has clawed back an extra 1.2GB of system RAM for game makers. The 12.5GB of available memory for the creators of PS5 games rises to 13.7GB for PS5 Pro. Quite how the platform holder has achieved this is unknown right now. PS4 Pro gave an additional 512MB of RAM to developers and did so by moving low performance systems apps to a secondary pool of new memory, so a similar solution may be in play in PS5 Pro.
This is wrong. We know from developers themselves that the ram budget is not a hard line on the PS5. We also don't know how much the OS uses, but it was always assumed it was 2.5GB, not 3.5GB.

Feels like there's an effort to attack the PS5 pro because it's about to take away the "power crown" that Xbox and their hardcore fans are so fond of having. It also seems like MS aren't likely to do anything to reclaim it until next generation, so that fanbase will have to deal with having the less powerful console on top of worse sales.
They lost the power crown after the best self-own in gaming history: "lol PS5 is 9tf, Xbox is 13...what do you mean games run better on PS5?"
