New PS5 Pro Specs Reportedly Leak & Fans Aren't Very Impressed

New PlayStation 5 Pro specs have leaked, but fans don't seem to be impressed. It's become fairly standard for consoles to receive a mid-generation refresh, with the last generation seeing the PlayStation 4 Pro, and the Xbox One X with various improvements to provide better fidelity and performance.

Of course, there has been no official word on whether these specs are true or not. It seems extremely likely that some kind of PlayStation 5 Pro model is on the way, but until Sony officially announces it, these specs are just speculation.
