Where are you sourcing the comparison between the PS5 GPU and a 4070ti? The PS5 has 16 Gb of shared ram total and a 4070ti has 16 Gb for just the GPU. I don’t think the comparison is accurate and think that leads to an inflated value proposition in your comment. I have a PS5 and the percentage of games it can currently run at a solid 60 fps is a low percentage, but a 4070ti will consistently be at 60 fps for most cross platform games.
PS5 Pro has a much better GPU than the current PS5. It’s not fair to compare current HW with unreleased hardware, but at release PS5 Pro is going to be quite competitive for a little while.
Sony says "up to 45% faster rendering" in the PS5 Pro so, I certainly think we can compare.
That sets an upper bound for the performance increase we can expect, does it not? I certainly doubt they'd be underselling the perf gains.
45% faster rendering would get it up to about the performance of an RTX 4060 from what I'm seeing.
If that's true, this is certainly a solid upgrade. I don't play a lot of AAA games but my RTX 4060 can do 1080p @ 60-144fps at mostly maxed settings. Whereas stock PS5 certainly seems to struggle to hit that. (If I understand correctly, I could use the magic upscaling crap to get similar results at 4K but haven't had the inclination to mess with it)
They also say with individual rays calculated at "double or even triple the speeds of PlayStation 5. “67 percent more compute units and 28 percent faster video RAM” and the images are with a PS5 @ 30FPS and a PS5 Pro at 60FPS.
So, it’s a different architecture not just a speed bump. That said, I agree in general it’s going to be worse than a 4070ti but every architecture has its quirks.
