PS5 Pro: Modest CPU, Enhanced Games, and Limited Launch

The PlayStation 5 Pro's modest 10% CPU upgrade is its primary limitation, affecting performance in CPU-bound games like Baldur's Gate 3, which still struggle to maintain a steady 60 FPS. While the console offers some improvements over the base model, its Zen2 CPU lags behind current mainstream CPUs. Additionally, the PS5 Pro shares limitations with the base model in 4K, 120Hz output due to the HDMI controller. The PS4 Image Enhancement feature offers some visual improvements for older games but can impact performance and cause glitches.

Digital Foundry Analyzes Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's Technical Aspects

Digital Foundry has given The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom an overall positive technical analysis, finding that the game runs pretty well on the Switch. The game runs at a solid 30fps for almost all of the playtime, with a resolution of 900p in Docked Mode and 720p in handheld mode. The analysis notes that some cutscenes can suffer from "exceptionally poor" video quality during the pre-rendered sequences. The visuals do not quite match up to those that were shown in some of the early trailers, but the tech experts were impressed to see a game of this complexity running on Switch.
