The PS5 Pro might finally kill off performance mode, and the PC player in me is ecstatic

PS5 Pro next to graphic that reads "graphics mode" with a red cross on top.

The PS5 Pro is now officially a thing, and the upcoming PlayStation 5 revamp might finally solve my console performance woes. Since the OG system arrived back in 2020, players have had to choose between resolution and frame rate in many games, but the new system on the block will hopefully send performance and fidelity mode packing. 

Out of all the reasons to grab a PS5 Pro pre-order, not having to pick between boosting fps or playing at 4K is the biggest. Naturally, I’ll have to get my hands on the juiced-up model to see if it can pull off 4K 60fps across the board, but considering its AMD GPU boasts 67% more Compute Units and 13% faster RAM, I’d be surprised if it can’t rival mid-range graphics cards. That heavily appeals to my PC gaming side, especially since it opens the door to visual versatility.
