PS4 Pro: 10 Things you Need to Know



Hey guys, wish you are doing great,                    

All the information you were interested  to know about the PlayStation 4 Pro revealed  this month. In this video let's take a look at 10 most interesting facts  you will love to know.  

This is Rohith here from RA Tech here to reveal the vital info about the PS4 Pro.   Let's get started:

1. The brand new and upgraded PS4 will be called the Play Station 4 Pro over the much speculated PS4 Neo codename

2. Sony also announced a  new PS4 DualShock 4 Controller with an extra  light bar up front and a new redesigned camera which is much  more rounded now.

3. As all of you would have noticed, the PS4 pro now comes with a newer beefed up design because  of the  improvised configuration and specs. So this design has basically added another deck above the existing PS4 console.

4. The improved PS4 pro internals comprises of  the existing 8 core AMD Jaguar processor which clocks  a slightly higher speed at 2.1 GHz compared to the earlier 1.6GHz. It will also sport a better GPU with AMD's new Polaris architecture clocked at 911MHz which is slightly higher when compared to that of the PS4 which is 811MHz.  So this new gpu has twice the no. of compute cores and is capable of topping out an insane 4.20 T/Flops compared to 1.84T/Flops on the PS4 . It retains the same amount of memory i.e 8GB but is overclocked to perform at 218GBps compared to the 176GBps. of the ps4. So all the extra power can propel the PS4 pro to run games at 4k resolution with much better textures and details all around.

5. The Sony PS4 pro will also support HDR which indicates the  High Dynamic Range. This is nothing but  the black's will look blacker and white's more whiter, thus providing sharper and more vivid colours with a wider color gamut.  This feature will also be available for the PS4 via an firmware update.
The PS4 Pro may have just been unveiled awaiting launch but a handful of publishers and developers have already confirmed that their games will support the system, adding 4K-upscaling and HDR support with future updates.
Some of the games that have confirmed the support for the new console.

·         Call of Duty: Black Ops 3
·         Days Gone
·         Dishonored 2
·         Final Fantasy 15
·         Horizon: Zero Dawn
·         Infamous Second Son/First Light
·         Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare
·         Mass Effect: Andromeda
·         Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered
·         PES 2017
·         Resident Evil 7
·         Rise of the Tomb Raider
·         Spider-Man (Insomniac)
·         Watch Dogs 2

6. This might be a real bummer for most of you but although the PS4 Pro is capable of running games at 4k resolution, you  do not get an in-built UHD 4k player. This is done to cut down costs on the new console, but nonetheless both Netflix and Youtube will provide you hours and hours of 4k content.

7, So for those of you who do not own a 4k tv fret not because all the games that you play on the ps4 pro will have better textures, have more details, have a more consistent frame rate  and on the whole look much better than on the PS4 or PS4 slim on your existing HD Tv.

8.  The PS4 pro is forward compatible. So basically what this means is that all games you already own for your PS4 will also run on the ps4 pro but with better texture, details and on a higher resolution if provided with the required patch by the developer.

9. All these feature's and better internal's will result in a much better VR experience, with a consistent and better frame rate throughout and with much  better detail's and textures. One game that Sony showcased in the conference was FarPoint which had twice the amount of pixels than what can be supported on the original console and is visually spectacular especially when played using a VR headset in person.



10.The PS4 pro is expected to be available by the 10th of November 2016 for a price of 400$ for the 1TB variant and will be sold alongside the PS4 slim which is basically the slimmed down version of the PS4 which will be available for 300$.
