Highest Resolution: 1440p to 4K PSSR
Highest FPS: 60fps
quality: 756p-1440p DRS to 4K PSSR at a stable 50-60fps in stealth (see extra info).
performance: 720p-1260p DRS to 4K PSSR with worse AO and Lumen GI than quality mode, but at a basically locked 60fps in stealth. Patch 1.21 added this mode.
Pro's modes have the improved object LODs/shadows/GI in base PS5's unevenly paced 30fps quality mode (to different extents), while targeting 60fps. Patch 1.21 ensures a somewhat stable framerate within the VRR window providing you maintain stealth (dips to as low as 35fps in gunfights due to enemy AI/CPU limits). In stills, Pro is blurrier than even base PS5 performance mode (720p-1080p DRS to 4K FSR) due to low DRS/PSSR, let alone base PS5 quality mode's 1080p-1584p DRS. However, PSSR has less GI flickering, less artifacting in hair/foliage, reduced ghosting/breakup and sharper motion clarity, making it the better upscaler overall. Both Pro modes also have a more stable framerate than base PS5 performance mode, though cutscenes are an unstable 60fps everywhere.
