PlayStation 4 Pro's final specs revealed

The leaks were pretty much spot on, which means that the Scorpio will crush Pro in terms of raw potential.

Sony didn't reveal the technical specifications of the PlayStation 4 Pro on stage during the PlayStation Meeting earlier tonight, but they decided to share them in a press release instead. They seem to be the same as the ones that leaked earlier this year:

• Main processor: Single-chip custom processor
• CPU: x86-64 AMD "Jaguar" with 8 cores
• GPU: 4.20 teraflops, AMD Radeon based graphics engine
• Memory: GDDR5 8GB
• Network: 2GHz or 5 GHz

This also means that the Pro will be quite a lot weaker than what Microsoft has planned for their Scorpio, which aims to offer approximately 6 teraflops. Now the question is: will this matter much when most third party developers will make games for both consoles and both hardware manufacturers insist of making all games compatible across old and new hardware?
