- Debates about the PS6’s performance are heating up as the launch draws nearer.
- An insider claims that due to its ray tracing capabilities, PS6 will offer 3x more FPS.
- The next-gen console is also rumored to provide 10x better ray tracing enhancements.
As PS6 draws nearer, the rumors and debates about its performance have begun to gain traction. Many are anticipating it to be a huge jump over the PS5, while others are skeptical that it might not live up to the high expectations.
However, new rumors point to the PS6 will boast 10x ray tracing performance compared to the PS5. This in itself sounds like a major boost, but an insider has now claimed that this will also lead to 3.1x more FPS in games as well.
Why it matters: If this is indeed true, this would take the PS6’s performance closer to what the highest-end GPUs offer. And if it indeed launches at anything around $600, it would be a very tempting buy.
YouTuber MLID and insider KeplerL2 recently got into a debate about the probable performance of the PS6. The latter recently took to NeoGAF to state that MLID misinterpreted the information.
Kepler claims that due to the enhanced ray tracing capabilities, the newer console will be able to render and output frames more quickly. However, the “10x ray tracing” performance boost doesn’t mean 10x more frames.
In fact, in real-time performance, it is closer to 3.1x better FPS. So, for instance, a title running 60 FPS on PS5, PS6’s enhanced capabilities could theoretically push it to around 180 FPS, which is a massive bump.
Nonetheless, this, for now, is still a rumor. No one will really know how the console will perform until it launches. Even the PS5 claimed 4K 120 FPS gaming, but that was far from reality, so let’s wait and see.
