Extra Information

Pro's performance and quality modes look nearly identical despite a 2x in framerate. Both Pro and base PS5 performance modes run in an 120 Hz container, resulting in less input lag. Outside of base PS5's higher DRS (1800p-4K) in quality mode, Pro performance mode matches its graphical settings (distant terrain detail/geometry, shadows, AO & texture LODs). Base PS5 performance mode's 1260p-1800p DRS can be noticeably blurrier, with more image instability/shimmer/fizzle as well as worse reflections/shadows/draw distance than all the other modes.
