But when it comes to those aforementioned modes, we've always wondered just how popular each graphical option actually is. Fortunately, Cerny's got the data: "When asked to decide on a mode, [PS5] players are choosing performance about 3/4s of the time."
We probably would have bet on performance modes being the more common choice. After all, you're typically playing games rather than watching them — and so it makes sense that most players would opt for smoother frame rates and more responsive controls. Still, it's nice to have confirmation.
"Removing that decision [between fidelity and performance], or at least narrowing that divide is one of the key targets for PS5 Pro," Cerny continues. "We want to give players the graphics that the game creators aspire to, at the high frame rates that players typically prefer."
So, do you prefer performance over fidelity? Or does it largely depend on the game? Prove Cerny correct in the comments section below.
